As the biggest jumps meeting of the season looms all eyes will be on a certain Irish trainer from Closutton called Mr. Mullins, who will be carrying the bulk of the support from punters yet again. However, just how many Cheltenham Festival winners has Willie Mullins had over the years?<\/strong><\/p>\n

How Many Cheltenham Festival Winners Has Willie Mullins Had During His Career (as a trainer)<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n

In the history of the Cheltenham Festival, no trainer has fired in more winners than Willie Mullins<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The 17-time Irish National Hunt Champion trainer, Willie Mullins, has racked-up a staggering 103 Cheltenham Festival winners<\/strong> and he’s certainly not finished yet.<\/p>\n

At the 2024 Festival he smashed through the 100-winners mark when Jasmin De Vaux landed the Champion Bumper, which also provided a thirteenth success in the final race on day two.<\/p>\n

While over the whole 2024 meeting Willie Mullins had nine Cheltenham Festival winners (see them all below).<\/p>\n

With another strong army heading to Prestbury Park on March 11th, we can expect the Mullins Cheltenham tally to increase further.<\/p>\n

Therefore, it’s no shocker he’s already long odds-on with the best horse racing betting sites in the UK<\/a> to be crowned top trainer at the meeting again.<\/p>\n

Remarkably 70 of these Mullins Festival winners have come in the last 10 years – wow.<\/p>\n

\n

DID YOU KNOW?<\/strong> Willie Mullins has also ridden three Cheltenham Festival winners, including Wither Or Which (rode and trained)<\/em><\/p>\n

\n

Mullins sits clear of Nicky Henderson, who has 73 Cheltenham Festival winners and now has over double the tally of 49 successes that Paul Nicholls has fired in on the biggest jumps racing stage.<\/p>\n

Fellow top Irish trainer Gordon Elliott has sent out 40 Cheltenham Festival winners after landing three more in 2024. With Henry De Bromhead on 23.<\/p>\n

If Willie Mullins trains seven winners in 2025 and then a minimum of six Cheltenham winners over the next 15 years – he’ll hit 200 Cheltenham winners in 2040 at the age of 83.<\/p>\n

Oh, there are also SEVEN Cheltenham Festival races Willie Mullins has NEVER won – find out which ones here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
