Mullins and Walsh score at Thurles

Ruby Walsh was seen to good effect when winning The Killinan Beginners Chase aboard the Willie Mullins trained Financial Reward

Mullins said afterwards, "The experience he got last year was a big help. He's entered in The Drinmore but we'll probably go for a winners of one in 2 or 3 weeks time. We'll more than likely run him at the country tracks as he appeared to be enjoying those fences."
