Willie Mullins believes State Man's defeat at the hands of Brighterdaysahead could have a different feel to it by the end of the season.
The reigning champion hurdler was sent off the 4-9 favourite for the Neville Hotels Hurdle at Leopardstown on Sunday, despite being beaten by the Gordon Elliott-trained Brighterdaysahead on his reappearance in the Morgiana in November.
