FRUIT BLOSSOM had an inauspicious run over fences at Perth and connections unsurprisingly elect to return back to hurdles this afternoon. He's preferred to Theonewedreamof, who was fancied for a race on the Flat at Galway and is a versatile sort. Howaya C D And E remains a maiden despite a series of solid efforts in defeat but The Grey Monty hasn’t been seen since bombing out badly at Cartmel last year so he may be best watched.
