Top duo back in business with four-timer

Any worries regarding the health of Willie Mullins’ horses, following a number of reverses over the previous two racing days, were blown out of the water at Clonmel yesterday.

Mullins combined with Ruby Walsh to land a spectacular four-timer, including the featured Grade 3 Surehaul Mercedes-Benz Novice Hurdle with the rapidly improving Inish Island.

He is now two from three since being transferred to Mullins and his defeat came at the hands of the talented At Fishers Cross at Cheltenham.
