THE next month is the most exciting of the season.” That’s the view of Patrick Mullins who took an hour out of his day on Wednesday to discuss some of the horses trained by his father Willie who have been catching his eye on the gallops in recent weeks.

In a Zoom call organised by Horse Racing Ireland, Patrick touched on plenty of topics, including how he kept himself busy during the racing stoppage and how his father manages to stay at the top of his profession all these years.
