Paul Townend has 4 huge chances on Wednesday – check out this Mullins Lucky 15

Horse racing is in Liam's blood and his biggest passion is jumps racing. He can often be found at his favourite tracks; Chepstow and Cheltenham in the Autumn when the National Hunt action kicks off. In his own words: "I'm often referred to as a walking form book, a trait which comes in handy from time to time. My proudest tipping success to date was landing a whopping 682-1 accumulator at Epsom."
Paul Townend and Willie Mullins Lucky 15
15 bets on 4 horses picked by our tipsters. One winner for small return, 4 for full returns.
Paul Townend is rarely far away from a winner at the Cheltenham Festival and he could be in for a very good day on Wednesday. He appears to have a particularly strong book of rides for regular boss Willie Mullins so this could be the Lucky 15 to follow on Day 2. MyRacing will provide free tips for every race at Cheltenham and our Day 2 selections are available to view here.
Final Demand won an Irish point in good style back in March and has subsequently joined the Willie Mullins yard. The son of Walk In The Park made a very good impression when winning a Limerick maiden hurdle in December and was equally as dominant when upped to Grade 1 level at the Dublin Racing Festival. There could be more to come and that’s a pretty scary thought.
Ballyburn looked like a star in the making when winning the 2m5f novice hurdle here last year. He was probably the best novice over pretty much any trip last season and made a winning start to his chasing career. Sir Gino got the better of him over two miles at Kempton over Christmas but he bounced back when winning at Leopardstown last month.
Bunting has been well supported since the declarations were made and Paul Townend picks him over stablemates Jimmy Du Seuil and King Alexander. This five-year-old was well beaten behind Majborough in the Triumph last year but makes his handicap debut here, off an intriguing mark of 139.
Gameofinches dominated the field when winning the second of his Irish point-to-point starts so it’s no surprise that he’s ended up with Willie Mullins. It would be hard not to be impressed by his bumper victory at Punchestown last month and provided he settles better here, the six-year-old will have every chance.
