With that in mind, let’s take a look at the possible 2023 Dublin Racing Festival Willie Mullins runners, plus his record in each contest.
Willie Mullins Dominance Has Grown At The Dublin Racing Festival
It’s hard to believe that Willie Mullins only had three winners at the 2019 Dublin Racing Festival and then only one more in 2020.
However, since then the dominance of the Willie Mullins stable, at one of Ireland’s biggest jump horse racing meeting of the season, has catapulted with a staggering 15 winners from the last two years – that means from the 30 races over 2021 and 2022, Mullins has won 50% of them!
This big increase is, of course, due to Mullins having an array of talent at his disposal and when looking at the 2023 Dublin Racing Festival entries for this weekend’s 15 races, it will be a big shock if it’s not business as usual for the County Carlow handler.
