Annie Power maintains unbeaten record at Doncaster

Annie Power enhanced her Cheltenham Festival claims with an effortless win in the OLBG.com Doncaster Mares' Hurdle on Town Moor.

Mullins was at Leopardstown, where he said: "I was surprised how soft the ground was at Doncaster, but that wasn't any harm. "She's getting used to travelling, and hopefully three trips across to England haven't taken a lot out of her but we'll see how she comes back. The forecast is so bad, I don't know whether she's going to get back until Monday or Tuesday, but we'll see, she might be lucky and get out. "She's a wonderfully filly and hopefully we can add one or two more wins after that." Sky Bet trimmed Annie Power to 6/1 from 8/1 for the Stan James Champion Hurdle at Cheltenham and spokesperson Michael Shinners said: "Annie Power showed the drop back to two miles was no problem to her whatsoever and she looked to already have the beating of Cockney Sparrow when John Quinn's mare unfortunately crashed out of the race. "The Champion Hurdle looks a distinct possibility at this stage and I can't imagine the 6/1 lasting that long as we get nearer the Festival."
