Fairy gives Mulvany More Northern Cheer

Sat 20th Jun 2009, 15:53

Michael Mulvany, based in Kells Co. Meath, has found the Northern tracks a happy hunting ground and The Tooth Fairy did well as a three-year-old to beat mainly older rivals in the Rainbow Telecom Rated Race under talented apprentice, Gary Carroll (19-y-o, 7th winner of the season and 14th in all).

Lady Bolino was Mulvany's first winner when she proved victorious in a Downpatrick bumper in March 2007. Here The Tooth Fairy led inside the final furlong and he went on to defeat the front-running Worldly Wise by two and a half lengths.

Mulvany said: "This horse is pretty versatile, anywhere from five to seven furlongs and he'll probably stay a mile in time. My father, Larry owns him. He might go to Galway."

My Racing Story. Emma Connolly

I'm from Killyon, Co Meath and always had a fascination for ponies. My mam and dad eventually gave in and I got riding lessons and then I got my own pony. Then when I was about 12 or 13, I was fortunate enough to start working for Frederick John Bowles and all I wanted was racehorses after that. I was mucking out and riding out there and doing general stable duties. That was during weekends and school holidays. I got the bug massively. I wanted to be a jockey but wasn't good enough. I had a few rides in places like Limerick and Roscommon as an amateur in bumpers. My bottle probably wasn't good enough either.
