Tom Mullins pulls no punches

That was an interesting feature, written by Daragh Ó Conchúir, on trainer Tom Mullins, in last Saturday’s Irish Field.

The article provided a fascinating insight into the thinking of the much-respected Mullins and dispelled any notion that he, like most of his colleagues, is willing to play the game, no matter the cost.

Mullins came across as very much his own man and clearly indicated to Ó Conchúir his frustration with the manner in which National Hunt racing in this country has evolved.
