In depth
Verdict
GUILY BILLY won a point at Tinahely in November and went for a massive £310,000 at the sales a month later. Willie The Coo is by Canford Cliffs so should have more pace than most and he's a brother to a winning bumper/hurdler. Emmet Mullins had a bumper winner on the opening day so Carrarea is one to note as is Derek O'Connor's mount Golden Wonder's. The latter is the first foal of a prolific bumper winner in France and is one to keep an eye on in the market.
