RICHARD MULLEN has struck up a fruitful partnership with Sir Michael Stoute and partnered the trainer's Red Gala to victory in a dramatic corbettsports.com Chester Handicap.
The 11-2 chance kept on well to deny Strategic Mount by half a length and Mullen was lucky to avoid the trouble when Sir Duke clipped heels and fell three furlongs out, bringing down Speed Gifted and Cheshire Prince in the process.
