Mullins & Berry top off a great evening

Sat 14th Aug 2010, 20:48

Tony Mullins doubled his tally for the evening at Tramore when Decoy Daddy gave Fran Berry a treble in the concluding www.tramore-racecourse.com Maiden. Berry also rode Tony's other winner, Fammi Sognare and the other victory for the Tramore specialist was for his boss, John Oxx, on O'Bella Ballerina in the opener.

Completing a great evening for the punters at Graun Hill, as six of the seven favourites won and the other winner was a 3/1 shot, Decoy Daddy, the 9/10 market-leader stayed on well to draw clear in the final furlong, accounting for Holly Tree by four and a half lengths.

Mullins said of Decoy Daddy: "We are always saying that he is dead reliable but the handicapper has him now in all disciplines. So we found what looked like a weak maiden and he took his chance well.

"He is a trainers delight as he always runs to his mark and is so honest. He is in a good chase in Killarney and he is such a hardy devil that he might just go there next week."

My Racing Story. Don Browne

I was born and bred in Carrigtwohill, Co Cork and my father had point-to-pointers. He never trained, but he had horses in training. A thing I always wanted to do was train my own horse. I was about 21 before I sat on a racehorse. My father had a point-to-pointer and said to me to crack on and take a chance training him. I then bought a horse with my brother and trained it. She stayed racing, but was never much good. Cloneen Princess was my first winner in the millennium year at Carrigtwohill. She was a point-to-point winner for my father. I bought Cloneen Storm and he won for me as a five-year-old and a six-year-old. That fella won four point-to-points. After him, the licence went. I had another horse for my father, Cloneen Choice, and I took out the licence for him. He won three point-to-points and he came third in a hunters chase in Killarney in 2017.
