The five-strong Willie Mullins battalion may have their work cut out against MIGHTY POTTER, whose emphatic Drinmore success represented one of the best performances from a novice chaser so far this season. James du Berlais looked a natural on his chase debut and makes most appeal of the Mullins runners, with Gaillard du Mesnil, long established as a very smart sort, taken to fill the placings.
