Race Tip

Willie Mullins could dominate this once more. COPACABANA (1) is the choice of Patrick Mullins and is selected to remain unbeaten following his impressive debut success in a Navan jumpers flat last month. BAMBINO FEVER (15) will relish the Cheltenham hill and could prove a chief danger after her authoritative win in the G2 Coolmore Irish EBF Mares INH Flat Race at Leopardstown during February. GAMEOFINCHES (5) created a sizeable impression coasting to a 4.5L success delivering initial rules outing at Punchestown. Cannot be left out of the equation. Others to note include KALYPSO'CHANCE (10) and AQUA FORCE (14) who has since joined top connections after winning a Gowran Park jumpers flat on debut.
