Willie Mullins hoping Limini can rise to the challenge in Trull test

Willie Mullins is keeping his fingers crossed Limini's jumping stands up to the test as she puts her reputation on the line in Thursday's Trull House Stud Mares' Novices' Hurdle at Cheltenham.

A smart performer on the Flat in France, the five-year-old beat a strong field on her hurdling debut at Punchestown last May and bolted up on her only start since in a Grade Three at Fairyhouse in January.
