Limini in frame to cross Irish Sea for Willie Mullins

Willie Mullins is looking to run Limini in the UK on her reappearance before a possible tilt at the new mares' race at the Cheltenham Festival.

Limini heads the ante-post market at 4-1 for the Grade Two Trull House Stud Mares' Novice Hurdle, despite having had just the one run for Mullins and owner Rich Ricci.

That came at Punchestown in May when the French import justified 5-4 favouritism in a 23-runner maiden hurdle in smooth fashion.

"She's ready to come out," Mullins told Racing UK.

"There is a mares' hurdle in England for her coming up and we have her pencilled in for that.

"Her form looks good and I think she has improved a good bit in her jumping.

"She just hadn't come right all season, but I think she has come right now."
