Horse trainer may be first female to win Kentucky Derby
The Associated Press
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Kristin Mulhall acts as if the Kentucky Derby is just another race. She isn't fooling anyone.
The 21-year-old Californian really is cool and calm about having a legitimate chance at becoming the first female trainer to win the Derby. She will saddle Imperialism against such veterans as Bob Bafert, Bobby Frankel and Nick Zito.
And if Imperialism wins the 130th Derby on Saturday, Mullah would break the record for youngest winning trainer set by James Rowe Sr., who was 24 when he Hindoo to victory in 1881.

While recuperating, she galloped thoroughbreds at Del Mar A year later, Mulhall passed the test for a trainer's license, defying a father who didn't want the hard life of the racetrack for his daughter.
"I was against it," said Richard Mullah, a former trainer and manager for The Thoroughbred Corp., owned by the late Saudi Prince Ahmed bin Salman. "The back-

The elder Mulhall never started a horse in the Derby. "She's a much better trainer than
Only nine women have saddled Derby horses; Shelley Riley came closest to winning when her Casual Lies was second in 1992.
Mulhall grew up a few furlongs from Santa Anita, where the smell of hay and manure became like perfume to her. "It's where I was raised, basically," she said, smiling.

her father was," Frankel said.
She's comfortable getting into the stalls with her horses, even curling up for a nap next to the 1,100-pound animals when she was younger. Mulhall is hands-on, mixing her own feed and exercising several of her horses in the mornings. Frankel and Baffert hire people to do those chores.
watching her work during the winter at Hollywood Park, where they are based.
"She loves it and she puts her heart and soul in it," he said. Initially, Mulhall's father helped her get horses to train, but Frankel eschews any suggestion that she hasn't succeeded on her own merits.

"She calls her own shots," he said. "She's got a good feel for this business."
Mullah has about 40 horses in her barn, including 14 for Steve Taub, who owns Imperialism.
The perpetually tan Taub is a physical fitness buff. He doesn't drink and is usually in bed by 9 p.m. Mulhall is in the barn at 4:30 a.m. most days, her blond ponytail bob-

"I try to act like it's another race and try to keep everyone calm and keep the horses calm and keep everything the same," she said.
"It's kind of like going to Yankee Stadium and seeing the 'House that Ruth Built,'" he said.
