Take My Hand gains first success for Mulvany The Mulvany family home-bred Take My Hand (5/1) has been running very consistently since racing resumed and got her turn in the 3-y-o handicap over 7f. Gary Carroll’s mount tracked the leaders and picked up well to hit the front half a furlong from home. She kept on to record a length and three quarters victory from the 4/1 favourite Sweet Justice in second. The daughter of Tough As Nails thrives on racing like many of her stablemates, and had finished third on three of her four starts since mid-June, including a staying-on effort at Sligo after a slow start on her previous outing. Winning trainer Michael Mulvany commented: “She'll probably come back here next Thursday all being well. “There is a 45-65 for her and she gave the impression there that she will stay the mile. “If she's anything like her mother (three-time winner The Silver Crown)she'll only get tougher.” Additional reporting by Gary Carroll
