Willie Mullins enters three potential star horses – including one his wife owns – in race he's won for past six years

TRIPLE THREAT Willie Mullins enters three potential star horses – including one his wife owns – in race he's won for past six years WILLIE MULLINS has entered three potential superstar horses - including one his wife owns - in a race he's won for the past six years. The Closutton boss has made the Friday bumper at Tramore his own since 2019, when he claimed it with future Listed winner Getaway Gorgeous. Advertisement 1 Willie Mullins, here with wife Jackie on the left and son Patrick, has entered three horses - including one owned by his other half - in a bumper race he's won every year since 2019 Credit: Getty Since then the roll call of honour includes Ruaille Buaille, Coole Og, Space Tourist, Caman Eileen and, most recently, More Coko. Every single one of Mullins' six winners has been sent off odds-on favourite for the 2m½f Flat race. While none of them went onto become household names, the three he has entered for this year's renewal all boast fascinating pedigrees. Certainly good enough to suggest one of them could burst through into his top tier for the upcoming season. Advertisement Among them is five-year-old mare Katie Can't Count, who is owned by Mullins' wife Jackie. Katie Can't Count is by the former Aidan O'Brien-trained multiple Group 1 winner Order Of St George, who has the Ascot Gold Cup on his CV. Among his best progeny is Grade 2 bumper-winning mare Seo Linn, who won at this year's Aintree Grand National Festival. Mullins has also entered fellow five-year-old La Confiner, a No Risk At All mare who will be making her debut as well for owner Brendan O'Sullivan. Advertisement La Confiner was bought for around £30,000 at the Goffs Arkle stores sale in June 2023. But arguably the most interesting of the lot is four-year-old gelding Highland Realm. He is by globe-trotting middle-distance superstar Highland Reel and out of Stops A Nation - a half-sister to Mullins' beloved Wicklow Brave. A 'horse of a lifetime', Wicklow Brave won just shy of £1million with 17 wins from 59 races before being fatally injured in the 2019 American Grand National. Advertisement Stops A Nation, who was also trained by Mullins, won a Tramore bumper on debut in April 2019 and is also a half-sister to the former John Gosden mare Brass Ring, who won four times over staying trips. Mullins will make his final declarations for the race on Wednesday. He is busy readying his massive squad for the 2025-26 National Hunt season - but will go into it without two big names. Sir Gerhard and Kilcruit were recently retired. Advertisement But it is hoped former Gold Cup king Galopin Des Champs will come back all guns blazing. And jumps fans could be in for an early treat should he start his season in the John Durkan Chase at Punchestown once more. Gavin Cromwell revealed his Gold Cup winner Inothewayurthinkin is likely to run there first time out. That means this year's Gold Cup 1-2 could have the first of a few head-to-heads there at the end of November.

Cat Deeley takes her wedding ring off for dinner with male friend in Spain – after split from Patrick Kielty

Patrick's family have revealed the moment they 'knew the marriage was over' ring it off Cat Deeley takes her wedding ring off for dinner with male friend in Spain – after split from Patrick Kielty CAT Deeley has been snapped for the first time since splitting from husband Patrick Kielty after 13 years of marriage. The former couple - who share sons Milo, seven, and James, five - announced that they were separating last month. 3 Cat was seen having dinner on holiday just days after she and Patrick confirmed their split Credit: Getty 3 The former couple were married for 13 years Credit: WireImage 3 Sources close to Patrick's family have revealed the moment they 'knew his marriage was over' Now photos show This Morning host Cat, 48, seen out for dinner with a male friend in Sitges, Spain on August 2 - just days after she and Patrick, 54. Onlookers told the Daily Mail how the presenter looked 'crestfallen' during the 'difficult time'. The snaps obtained by the publication show Cat without her wedding ring as she and hairdresser pal Ben Skervin tucked into dinner at restaurant Chiringuito de Garraf. Ben is a celebrity hairstylist and has worked with the likes of the Spice Girls, Mariah Carey and Madonna. A fellow diner said: 'Cat looked a bit down and a touch crestfallen, not her usual spritely self, which is understandable given her marriage split. 'Her accent was recognisable to a number of Brits at the restaurant, which is popular with celebrities, and she had interacted with a few British kids also dining there 'She clearly needed to be around her nearest and dearest during such a difficult time.' It comes after sources revealed that, after Cat was a no-show at the funeral of Patrick's mother in March, his family 'knew the marriage was over'. One said: 'Whatever rockiness was going on in the marriage, something as momentous as his mother's funeral, you would make up even temporarily and just put your 'best face' on as we say in Northern Ireland. "Cat obviously knew how close Patrick was to Mary and she should have come to be by his side, a hand on his shoulder as he buried his mother. Patrick Kielty 'didn't feel like an equal partner' in failed marriage to Cat Deeley - admitting 'rough patches' they had to work through 'The fact that she stayed in London and presented This Morning on the day, it's not been forgotten. At the time of Mary's funeral, Cat insisted she'd stayed in London to be with their sons Milo, seven, and James, five. A spokesman for Cat told the Mail: "Cat remained at home to be there for her two young children before and after school on this very sad day."
