With the return of Galopin Des Champs now in the rear-view, the Gold Cup favourite's trainer Willie Mullins joins the show to share his thoughts on the horse and the performance, plus those of his other winners yesterday. He also offers some interesting insight on Vauban and his other two mile hurdlers.
