St Vincent's bid for a Dublin SFC three-in-a-row remains on course after they negotiated the considerable challenge of Ballymun Kickhams in this evening's second round clash at Parnell Park.
The holders pulled away in the second-half of the north side derby to record a 0-19 to 0-13 victory.
A closely fought first-half had finished with Vincent's narrowly ahead by 0-9 to 0-8 but the Marino outfit outscored their opponents by 10 points to five in the second-half.

Former Dublin star Mossy Quinn top scored for the winners with eight points and they now advance to the quarter-final stages of the competition.
Elsewhere, St Jude's got the better of St Brigid's by 0-13 to 0-9 while Lucan Sarsfields enjoyed a 4-14 to 0-7 victory over St Patrick's Palmerstown.
