Verdict

ASK BLOSSOMFORT impressed when making a winning handicap debut at Ayr in November, quickening clear run-in to win readily. She gets the nod to follow up, possibly at the chief expense of Kingston Kid and Rock of Tuskar and low-mileage Roped In.

  1. ASK BLOSSOMFORT (IRE)
  2. KINGSTON KID (IRE)
  3. ROCK OF TUSKAR (IRE)
