WELL done to all who supported the international polo action at the Phoenix Park last weekend (report A75) in aid of Irish Injured Jockeys. Patrick Mullins was man of the match and scored two goals and gave an outstanding performance in defence as well as attack but he was hotly pressed for the honour by the veterans Davy Russell and Barry Geraghty with Sean Flanagan giving a robust performance as well! And what bad luck to get his fall on Sunday at Tramore.

Sadly Paul Carberry had to cry off the day before having sustained a broken collar bone but he was there in technicolour roaring encouragement from the sideline with Tracy Piggott ably giving expert commentary from the stand on the public address system. Trainer Andy Oliver was another game participant.
