After race at Thurles Thu, 4th Nov, 2010 (1st)

I'm delighted with that. A lot of mine are needing a run but he jumps well and Ruby got one good run out of him from before the last. He won't go for anything flashy, we'll keep it country for the time being and he could have another couple of runs before Christmas. He shows more at home than he has done so far on the track.

W P Mullins

After race at Downpatrick Sun, 28th Mar, 2010 (1st)

He will be turned out again quickly as he doesn't much of a break. He will go for a conditions hurdle next rather than handicap hurdle.

Patrick Mullins representing W P Mullins

After race at Gowran Park Sat, 13th Feb, 2010 (1st)

That was grand. He was a bit disappointing in Leopardstown and the lighter weight probably helped him here. He'll stick to the same trip now and go for another handicap. That's the hundredth winner of the season for me.
