By Andrew Atkinson
Mark Walsh rode Elimay – tipped by fromthehorsesmouth.info – to victory in the G2 Mrs Paddy Power Chase at Cheltenham on Friday, to bag trainer Willie Mullins a fifth winner on day 4 of the Festival.
Vauban (6-4), State Man (11-4) A Plus Tard (3-1) and Elimay (9-4) returned a fromthehorsesmouth.info 121-1 four-horse winning accumulator. A Yankee Bet paid £338.
“Early on she gave herself a bit of a fright,” said winning jockey Walsh, after the eight-year-old hit the top of a few fences.
Elimay (9-4) beat Venetia Williams trained 33-1 shot Pink Legend by half-a-length, with a driving finish up the hill, with Scarlet And Dove (28-1), third.
Owned by JP McManus, Elimay was the tenth winner of the 2022 Festival for Ireland’s legendary trainer Mullins.
Elimay ground out a battling run to thwart Pink Legend of winning. David Condon, assistant to Mullins, said: “She’s not overly big to be jumping fences but she’s really tough, she stays really well and she doesn’t know when she’s beaten.”
Walsh added: “She needed to warm up a bit. She’s a tough horse and got her head down to the line.
“It was great to come home in front. To get two winners at this year’s Cheltenham Festival is great.”
*Mullins’ five winning horses returned a 1,518-1 accumulator.
