Emmet Mullins puts first treble on the board

A Cork treble and the first of his career for Emmet Mullins was brought up by Agritime in the finale on today's big Paddy Power sponsored card, the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Mares (Pro/Am) INH Flat Race.

With cousin Patrick aboard, the 30/100 chance dictated throughout from the front to add to Limerick gains secured earlier in the month.

She ended up easily accounting for nicely-supported second market choice Reine Machine (6s into 9/2) by three and three parts of a length.

Earlier on the mark with Crowns Major and Cape Gentleman under Brian Hayes, Mullins reflected: "That's my first treble and there weren't too many times when we had enough runners to have had one.

"She is a nice mare, loves that ground and she found a nice opportunity.

"All she could do was win and Patrick was complimentary of her and has advised to take a crack at the Listed mares' bumper at Navan in November. We'll see how that goes before we go hurdling."

The Irish Horseracing Regulatory Board Veterinary Officer reported to the Stewards that Ballinclay Jet trained by N Dooly was found to be lame on the right hind post race.
