The Willie Mullins trained Ask Vic made a winning debut in the concluding Athlone Bumper at Kilbeggan today, scoring readily under the trainer's son Patrick Mullins.

The winner is the latest in a long list of winners Mullins has sent out for the Supreme Horse Racing Club and Mullins Junior later sent the daughter of Old Vic clear inside the final furlong for an easy win over Quinville Castle

Mullins Junior later stated “my grandmother bred her so we knew the pedigree and knew she'd stay well, that's why we started her in a 2m3f bumper. She showed more on the track today than she has shown at home but was still green on the first circuit today. She learned as she went along, won snug enough in the end and should stay two and a half or three miles.”
