Trainer Michael ‘Mouse’ Morris was the big winner at the Horse Racing Ireland Awards which took place yesterday afternoon in the Leopardstown Pavilion, the Fethard-based trainer scooping the Outstanding Achievement Award for becoming the first person in almost 150 years to train the winners of the Aintree and Irish Grand Nationals in the same season.

The trainer of the legendary Dawn Run never put another horse in her stable after the legendary mare tragically died at the height of her fame.
