KINGS SPEAKER is the third foal of a mare who has already produced two winners and Willie Mullins' son of King's Theatre can continue the family tradition. Mags Mullins has a fine record in bumpers and So Oscar is certain to have made progress from his run at Fairyhouse in January where he started favourite. Star Counsel was beaten a long way into second by Supreme Ballerina at Wexford but it was still a fair debut while Old Castletown has shown good pace in two maiden hurdles so should be suited by racing on the level.
