WILLIE Mullins ended the year by recording a double at a wet and windy Punchestown with Sainte Lucie and Bambino Fever, two smart fillies for the powerful Closutton team to look forward to in 2025.

Sainte Lucie, placed on her only previous start at Auteuil last spring, was described as being out of the ‘top drawer’ by the champion trainer after landing odds of 8/11 in the Celebrate The New Year With Tote 3YO Maiden Hurdle.
