Longpocket

Billy Mulcahy’s raw-boned and wiry Australian thoroughbred carried numerous high-goalers throughout his career, including Memo Gracida, Esteban Panelo, Piki Alberdi, Juni Crotto, and Mike Azzaro. Sturdy and rock-steady with a big chest carrying a huge heart, Longpocket will long be remembered for his always dependable play, highlighted by performing for three out of seven hard-fought chukkers in the epic 80-goal match in California in 1990.
