CARTER MCKAY went for £160,000 at the sales after easily landing a point at Ballynoe and can make a successful debut for Willie Mullins. Moyross was equally impressive when odds-on at Loughrea in October while Oldcastle winner Caliption will be better for his run in a big field of hurdlers at Navan. Marta Mes has a smart pedigree and is one to keep an eye on for the future.
