Walsh and Smullen the stars of HRI awards
Ruby Walsh and Pat Smullen were the stars at last night’s Horse Racing Ireland Awards, each receiving the Racing Hero Award.
Nine-time Flat champion Smullen hung up his boots in early May and was then central to a celebrated fundraising campaign for pancreatic cancer trials, culminating with the Pat Smullen Champions Race for Cancer Trials Ireland at the Curragh.
