Willie Mullins has given no further clues as to whether Annie Power or Un De Sceaux will run in the Champion Hurdle.
Just as exciting, and similarly unbeaten, is Un De Sceaux, but Mullins again suggested he may not line up in the Champion Hurdle. "He's well," said the trainer. "The other day at Gowran, it looked like a walk in the park for him but going over two miles on heavy ground does take something out of them. "We'll see. As a young, talented horse, I don't want to be abusing him. He has done everything I've asked but do I throw him in the Champion Hurdle on what he has done? To me, Un De Sceaux is the future. We'll play as we find it over the next few weeks."
