Ask Blossomfort hadn't shown much until sent to Ayr and landing a mares' handicap in comfortable style so a repeat is a distinct possibiilty with a claimer on board. Kingston Kid gave notice of an imminent victory when beaten narrowly here and duly obliged at Tramore. That was only his sixth race so normal progress can see him in contention. PORKY RUSH had been gradually improving before being brought down when well supported at Wexford and is taken to gain compensation as Rock Of Tuskar's Kilbeggan victory was on good going, which he won't get here. Robindevidastar found quick ground against him on his chasing debut at Thurles, however, after scoring over timber at Punchestown. Birdie Blitz had a chance in the 3.15 here yesterday.
