Danny Mullins sits second in the Jockeys Championship and completed a double for his uncle Champion Trainer Willie Mullins today, steering Authorized Art (6/4f) to win Killarney's M.L. Lynch Civil Engineering Novice Chase.

The pair were earlier successful over hurdles with Finest Evermore and doubled up with impressive 11 lengths winner Authorized Art, which made all for an easy win to move the rider to 24 wins this term.

The younger Mullins later stated “I had ridden him over hurdles and he was always a fantastic jumper but lacked tactical speed. The scope he shows over fences gives him new strengths and hopefully he will keep building on it.”

My Racing Story. Conor Maxwell

I'm originally from Ballyboughal Co Dublin and I got into horses through a neighbour, Tommy Stafford - his son Paul trains. I started riding ponies for them and did a bit of hunting with the Fingal Harriers and Ward Union over the years. I came up through the ranks that way. I started riding track horses and point-to-pointers for Paul when he went on to train horses. As a young lad I always wanted to be a carpenter or something. Being a jockey was something I kind of fell into. I had no background in horses and none of my family were into horses. I just got hooked on them through the Staffords. I couldn't wait to get out of school. I wasn't bad at it but it just wasn't for me. I got bitten by the bug and kept at it.
