Champion trainer Willie Mullins has picked up the National Hunt award for the fifth time at the Horse racing Ireland Awards at Leopardstown.
Between his 185 winners in Ireland last season, his four victories at the Cheltenham festival which included sending out Quevega to win the OLBG Mares Hurdles for the sixth year in a row and his six Grade 1 winners at Punchestown, there were very few raised eyebrows when his name was announced.
