Mullins happy with his charges

WILLIE MULLINS reports Florida Pearl and Davenport Milenium none the worse for their exertions at Kempton Park on St. Stephen’s Day.

Florida Pearl was unable to repeat last year’s triumph in the Pertemps King George VI Chase but still finished a good fourth on ground softer than ideal, while Davenport Milenium occupied third in the Pertemps Christmas Hurdle on his first run since April.

“They arrived home this morning and they appear to be grand, we’re happy enough with them,” Mullins said yesterday.
