ROCK ON BARNEY (NAP) was having only his third start since March last year when scoring comfortably at Tipperary on Tuesday and a 5lb penalty doesn't look enough to prevent a quick double. Ask Mary, four times a winner between the flags, ended last season with a second place in a Grade 2 novices' chase at Limerick though was narrowly beaten by Ask And Answer at Navan in January and there's little between them at the weights. Miracle In Medinah showed his first sign of form over fences at Downpatrick while Hoke Colburn, a dual winner over fences in the UK, has found the trip too short in recent runs here and at Ballinrobe.
