Mullins Sends Strong Team for Sandown Jumps Finale, Title at Stake

The British Trainers' Championship will be decided at Sandown's Jumps Finale, with Willie Mullins and Dan Skelton locked in a close contest. Mullins, who is the reigning champion and slight betting favorite, brings a formidable team including recent Aintree winners and ten entries in the feature bet365 Gold Cup, aiming to overcome Skelton's narrow lead. Skelton, who has runners in every race, acknowledges the challenge and the high stakes, having already enjoyed a remarkable season. Both trainers highlight the significance and unpredictability of the final day, with the title still considered 'up for grabs.' The outcome hinges on Saturday's results, as the two leading trainers face off with strong squads and substantial prize money on offer. Achieving back-to-back titles would mark a historic feat for Mullins, while Skelton's achievements this season are also widely praised.
