ALL ABOUT MEE

Patrick and Willie Mullins can have a winning Beginner

- ROBBIE POWER

JARRIVE DE MEE (5.30) makes his debut over fences at the Galway Races this evening and is very interesting for Willie and Patrick Mullins.

The 2m6½f Beginners Chase is a fascinating contest and if Jarrive De Me can translate his hurdles form to the bigger obstacles, he could be hard to beat.

This six-year-old won three consecutive races at odds-on last season, with connections finding opportunities at Catterick and Haydock after a debut win at Thurles.

He then finished fourth behind stablemate and Albert Bartlett winner Jasmin De Vaux at the Punchestown Festival.

The son of Authorised was beaten nine lengths by the winner that day and that is good form.

Patrick knows the horse well, having partnered him in all four of his starts since joining the powerful Closutton team, and is on board today. He should go very close.

There's a lot of horses in the opening race (5.00) having their first ever run and I'm going to side with one who has experience.
