Oh good on you guys just seen this. Asked the same question on my thread. I have 3 or 4 trees that want to bloom. Its only 1 bud that blooms so if you cut the stock back to the next bud it should wake up and produce a leaf, right?...

Dont sweat it!!!! Just remove the flowers, you'll be fine. Some varieties are very prone to flowering on 1 year old wood, its just something to deal with. As long as you only remove the flowers there should be a meristem within that flower that will start pushing a shoot. Somewhere between pink and the king opening is the easiest time to remove the flowers without getting into the shoot.
I cut these off last week and it appears additional growth is coming up. I'm seeing more leaves at least so hopefully it is a bud that grows into a tree. I cut off a few blooms on some of my other grafts as well.
