Verdict

Willie Mullins had a winner on the Flat on Thursday and useful hurdler McKinley found fast going against him when 8l behind Mandatario and ABRAHAM at Leopardstown. The runner-up looks to be progressing fast having been disqualified from first at Killarney earlier and is taken to reverse the form on 3lb better terms. Don Vincenzo had improved over jumps before reverting to the Flat and winning easily on soft ground at Leopardstown so he has to be a threat from the bottom of the handicap. Synopsis takes a big step-up in trip but Three Kingdoms is one to keep an eye on as he's a classy jumper who has won easily on heavy going on the level.
