Festival Hunter Chase Tips: Mullins runner fits the Bill

Scheduled in the slot immediately after the Cheltenham Gold Cup, the Festival Hunters Chase is sometimes referred to as the Amateurs Gold Cup. Here’s an overview of what the tipsters have selected.
20 runners are set to line up at 16:10 in the Foxhunter Chase including Billaway who has finished runner-up in the last two renewals and who looks sure to start favourite to go one better this year.
The Willie Mullins trained 10 year old warmed up for today with an easy success on Soft/Heavy ground at Naas last month and ridden by a virtual professional in Patrick Mullins he looks certain to go close.
Six tipsters have plumped for the favourite including Robin Goodfellow and Rob Wright and he holds the highest Topspeed rating in the race. He’ll surely take all the beating.
The next most popular selections are Cousin Pascal and Winged Leader wiho each have five tips on them.
Cousin Pascal is already a winner of a big English Foxhunters Chase having triumphed at Aintree last year. He is one of Raceolly's seven selections today - the HorseRacing.net tipster landed a 40/1 winner yesterday with Chambard in the Kim Muir and he is the nap of Steve Mullington and Racing Post (The North).
Winged Leader finished 12 lengths ahead of Billaway when they met at Thurles in January so has to be high on everyone's shortlist. Fortunatus of the Sheffield Star is particulary keen on his chances having selected him as his best bet of today.
Bob And Co is the nap of Racing Post (West Country) and is the Spotlight selection in the race. He was travelling realy well in this contest when unseating 12 months ago so it would be no surpise to see him go close with a clear round of jumping.
