El Fabiolo update after Willie Mullins’ former superstar suffers awful fall at Leopardstown WILLIE MULLINS' son Patrick has issued an update on El Fabiolo after the former superstar suffered an awful fall at Leopardstown.
Racing wide under Slevin, El Fabiolo, who was pulled up when 2-9 for last year's Champion Chase, looked to knuckle on landing.
Setting off under JJ Slevin, the retained rider for owners Simon Munir and Isaac Souede, El Fabiolo was expected to serve it up to stablemate and uneasy market leader Gaelic Warrior.
There were gasps from the crowd as Slevin smashed into the turf, with last year's winner El Fabiolo falling heavily too.
Son Patrick had an update on El Fabiolo after riding a winner at Carlisle on Monday.
