  • What was the name of Mags Mullins horse that sluiced up in a bumper couple of months back?

    Think Tabor owns a share in it.

    I’d like that one for the bumper- looked a class act. Usually a race to play on the day though for me.

      • Downtown getaway, Al Ferof?

        That's quite interfering. Is it easy to see the timeform ratings fit the last few winners prior to the festival?

          Different owners now grech and parkin and he'd need to run again in the listed race coming up. As id be shocked if the owners and hendo would consider sending him there without another run. If they are considering him for the race at all.

          Gallaghers cross also going hurdling 2m4

          • Didtheyleaveuoutto going straight for the bumper, confirmed by Gifford today. Him and hollowgraphic stand out as the two to beat in this for me, slight preference for the former, beat a top class field last time with loads in hand

                  That always happens until they are entered up again.

                          Can't find anything.

                          Looking at Mullins bumper runners and when they first ran that season.... ***this is going to take me longer than I'd hoped, hopefully be worthwhile!**

                          2017 Won by Fayonagh

                          Carter McKay (15th) - debut 28.12.16 (won) 1 more run, won. Patricks mount 11/2.
                          Probably worth mentioning that Getabird was ante post fav when ruled out.


                          SO - after all that.... apart from 5 of these runners, they'd all have been out by now. Some hope for Stay Humble, but would need to run in Mid Feb or end of Jan... perhaps the new Dublin racing festival is an option (assuming they have a bumper!!!)

                          Mullins had last place in 2009, 2010, 2011 - but since 2012 has had at least 1 horse win or hit the frame bar one year.

                          If they win on debut, the majorty go straight there... if beaten, they always run again.

                              That was a quality bumper in 2012
                              Thought Willies recent record was better than that
                              Two wins from nine still a good return though

                                To be fair, I only started from 2009 as it is the first I can remember but:

                                1996 Wither or Which Mr Willie Mullins Willie Mullins
                                1997 Florida Pearl Richard Dunwoody Willie Mullins
                                1998 Alexander Banquet Mr Ruby Walsh Willie Mullins
                                2000 Joe Cullen Charlie Swan Willie Mullins
                                2005 Missed That Ruby Walsh Willie Mullins
                                2008 Cousin Vinny Mr Patrick Mullins Willie Mullins
                                2012 Champagne Fever Mr Patrick Mullins Willie Mullins
                                2013 Briar Hill Ruby Walsh Willie Mullins

                                8 wins from 25 runnings is superb

                                He's never gone more than 4 seasons without winning it.... so this year is a slam dunk
