Trainer Mick Mulvany and jockey Gary Carroll combined for a double at Sligo today as In From The Cold gained a first career win in the Sligo Supporters Club 2020 Nursery..

The grey son of Alhebayeb finished third on his initial Nursery attempt at Galway on Saturday and today overcame a slow start before eventually quickening past his rivals in the second half of the race, scoring a two lengths win over Yolo Aris .

Mulvany and Carroll won the opening Claimer with Grove Hill and following their second success jockey Carroll reported “he stuck at it well. He was a fraction slow away and was nearly in top gear the whole way.

“In the last furlong he was only getting going. He's still a bit green and I think he'll improve again off that.

“Well done to Mick for running him back like that before he got the 7lb (ratings hike).

“Hopefully he'll win again. He's a good honest horse and tries hard. He wants further.”
