On outing number 100, Mutleys Joy recorded a 19th career success for Patrick O'Neill at Kilcohan Park on Thursday morning.
A terrific servant, the son of Lenson Panda and Miss Mutley is an ultra-consistent sort and going on his most recent performance, he looks certain to be winning plenty of more races. It's also worth noting that he has finished in the runner up spot on 20 occasions. His career winnings are now just over €7,700.
It was an exciting contest as the 6-1 shot just got the verdict when winning by the shortest of margins in 29.35. The winner turned five last October and that winning effort was almost a career-best.
Congratulations Patrick.
