Verdict
CARTER MCKAY was third in a Grade 1 hurdle in Ireland when trained by Willie Mullins. Gordon Elliott couldn’t find a race for him over fences but new connections may have more luck in this sphere. Al Le Gone hinted at ability in a maiden open at Tranwell and might have more scope than Hurricane Vic and Exclusive Rights.
