DANNY MULLINS was turning heads at Listowel races – but not for anything he was doing in the saddle.
The top jumps rider and Tote ambassador instead got a load of stick for his new haircut, described as ‘wrong on so many levels’.
Coolio was one of many celebs Mullins was likened to as he showed off his new hair[/caption]
Mullins is known for floppy black curls but had scrapped that look entirely for a style more like rapper Coolio in his song Gangsta’s Paradise.

A photo of his new do was viewed well over a million times online.
Sadly, predictably, not everyone was a fan.
In a recent interview Mullins said people would tell him all the time his hair was ‘awful’.
That was back when it looked a great deal better than this.
One punter dubbed Mullins ‘A$AP Jockey’ while another said: “Give him a month’s ban for that. Oh my.”
Others thought he looked like Nineties Peter Andre while some were certain he must have lost a bet to look the way he did.
Sadly Mullins’ new do didn’t prove a lucky charm on the track.
He came a brave third in the Kerry National on 28-1 Lucid Dreams – but finished a mile back of runaway winner Flooring Porter.
