Reports in which Blue Velvet (IRE) was mentioned

Blue Velvet brings up Punchestown double for Mullins and Townend
Willie Mullins and Paul Townend registered doubles on the card as Blue Velvet ran out a game winner of the Matchbook 50:50 Graduation Series Mares Maiden Hurdle at Punchestown. Mon 26th Jan
Blue another nice addition for Mullins
Blue Velvet asserted late on to make a winning start for Willie Mullins in the concluding bumper at Thurles this afternoon. Sat 21st Dec
After race at Thurles Sat, 21st Dec, 2024 (1st)
She is a nice addition to the mares ranks,. She was very green and lazy so was learning on the job and to pull it out again in the final 100 yards when the other horse came to her, was a great sign. She looks like a really nice type and looks another one for the DRF mares' bumper. Hopefully then she will go across the water and to Punchestown.
