Leading owner Walters has first winner for Mullins Leading owner Dai Walters bridged a 21 years gap between Irish winners today, beginning a Willie Mullins-association with newcomer No Risk No Fun's (10/11f) impressive victory in Wexford's Racing Again June 8th Bumper. Ridden by the Champion Trainer's son Patrick Mullins, No Risk No Fun routed 11 rivals and beat Byrnes Bloodstock Limited's From The Ashes hard-held by nine lengths. No Risk No Fun, by No Risk At All the sire of Allaho whom Mullins is mulling over a Cheltenham Gold Cup bid, is the first Irish winner for Welshman Walters (Walters Plant Hire Ltd) since Celtic Pride won twice for Noel Meade in 2001. Jockey Mullins said “he is above average for this time of the year and I think he is probably a black-type sort and I would have been disappointed if he didn't win today. “I don't know what he will do next and he will win a winners bumper no problem. Maybe Willie will go to Galway with him, but he could put him away and make him a winter horse, we will see. He is not overly big and goes on that good ground but he could be a good winter horse.” “It's a good start (for Walters) and hopefully it will keep going that way.” Quotes from Donal Murphy
