The Goodison Park club were in deep trouble just weeks ago, with their position worsened by the docking of eight points for financial breaches. But they have turned the corner in dramatic style this month, winning four out of their past five matches, with the outlier a 6-0 defeat by Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

But Pakistan's win only came in the final over with 12 needed as Josh Clarkson 38 not out threatened to pull off a heist, but two run outs in Mohammad Amir's over sealed the home win much to the delight of a full house at Gaddafi Stadium. The first match of the series was abandoned while Pakistan clinched... Читать дальше...

It was the 67-year-old's son Patrick, also his assistant trainer, who told the Irish Examiner that is what sets his father apart from rivals such as Gordon Elliott and Nicky Henderson.

His late father Paddy was a fine trainer in his own right -- training the remarkable Dawn Run -- but on Saturday Mullins... Читать дальше...
