Just use
\override Score.RehearsalMark #'direction = #DOWN

You can achieve this by moving the Mark_engraver from the Score context to the 
Staff context. Note that this will require your marks to be present in all 
staves or else each mark will only be printed in one staff.

Here is a complete example. Note that I am overriding Staff.RehearsalMark 
instead of Score.RehearsalMark because I moved the Mark_engraver to the Staff 
context. This is tested with 2.9 but should also work with 2.8 and later 2.7 
versions.

\version "2.9.0"

\new Score \with {
  \remove "Mark_engraver"
}
{
  <<
    \new Staff \with { \consists "Mark_engraver" } {
      a b c d \mark "A" a b c d
    }
    \new Staff {
      d e f g d e f g
    }
    \new Staff \with { \consists "Mark_engraver" } {
      a b c d \mark "B" a b c d
      \override Staff.RehearsalMark #'self-alignment-X = #RIGHT
      \override Staff.RehearsalMark #'break-visibility = #all-visible
      \override Staff.RehearsalMark #'direction = #DOWN
      \mark "D.C. al fine"
    }
  >>
}
