Four jumps trainers - Willie Mullins, Gordon Elliott, Henry de Bromhead and Gavin Cromwell - are reported by the Racing Post to be considering legal action over a move by Horse Racing Ireland to schedule 60 races for trainers that have saddled less than 50 winners in either of the previous two seasons.
