Mr Mulliner came from last to first to claim the Sound Of Silver Handicap Hurdle at Downpatrick in great style.
The Mark McNiff-trained gelding took closer order three from home in the 2m7f contest and swept into the lead after the next flight.
He powered clear going to the last and ran on strongly up the hill to record a comprehensive five-length success over The Informer
The 11/2 winner was following up on his success at Sligo last month.
"A couple of my horses ran indifferently the last few days but on the basis of the last day we thought he would win and that the step up in trip would suit," said McNiff.
"He'll be entered for a three mile handicap hurdle in Sligo next week but he'll probably come back here for a 2m5f race at the end of the month."
