A HUGE setback fuelled Willie Mullins' fire to roar back to the top with 100 Cheltenham Festival winners.
The meeting's dominant trainer brought up the ton by the halfway point of the four-day spectacle - and has won almost half of the races.

Mullins lost around 60 horses in a high-profile 2016 split with Ryanair boss Michael O'Leary and Gigginstown House Stud.
