The article is proposed for deletion as the horse does not appear to exist. Edwarddutton (talk) 16:11, 23 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete as non-notable, and probable hoax. There are zero non-Wikipedia ghits. -- Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 17:38, 23 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete no evidence that this horse exists. There have been a few racehorses called "Irish Molly" but none of them were remotely notable. This is probably someone's own horse or something from a video game.  Tigerboy1966   19:07, 23 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - bizarrely, all I managed to find was a vague reference to a racing greyhound called My Irish Molly. No suggestion there was a notable horse of the same name. Stalwart 111  (talk) 03:45, 24 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment She's a Standardbred trotter . As to importance, I'm unfamiliar with the major harness racing races and can't really determine if she warrants her own article. Froggerlaura  ribbit 16:44, 24 September 2012 (UTC) Here is her pedigree . It says foaled in 2005, but with the article saying Thoroughbred as well, it's probably all wrong as Logan's Dragon is also a trotter.  Froggerlaura  ribbit 16:54, 24 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Well there you go - who would have thought we had expert editors with an understanding of horse breeding. Brilliant! I think that pretty much says it all - if you have to dig that deep just to find verification of existence, verification of notability is a long way off.

 * Delete Yeah, I can't find significant coverage of the horse winning anything major, so not notable even though she does exist. Froggerlaura  ribbit 22:56, 24 September 2012 (UTC)
