John J Cullen

Clonmel Wed, 16th Sep, 2026  Cornmarket he is well handicapped on the Flat and we said we'd give this distance a go. I fancied him but thought he might be caught for toe, which he was coming down the hill, but he stays well and that won it. I'm based in Killala, Ballina in Mayo and am full-time training horses, although I've only recently recovered from a broken femur last Easter. I was previously a farrier but am getting more into training now, and took over from my dad in 2018, so I'm looking for owners. I grew up with horses, worked for trainers Oliver Brady, Shane Donoghue, David Ryan and Niall Moran and rode a little bit, but the weight got the better of me. It took almost four hours coming here today but it was a special day, as the best part, was the Sam Maguire Cup was at my childrens' school, so my kids Lillian, Sarah and Jamie got to lift it.
