IN ECSTACY didn't get the best of runs on his debut so it was no surprise when he came here last month and showed massive improvement. He has a penalty to carry as does Knocklane Lass for a facile victory over 7f on Friday where she made all and never looked like being caught. Master Copy made great strides from his debut to be placed earlier this month and though just behind Rene Artois may have more scope than Michael O'Callaghan's colt. Deceit looks best of Johnny Murtagh's pair.
