Zoffany's Delight and The Last Knight were involved in a barging match with the eventual winner in a similar race at Naas on Thursday. Both were impeded at a crucial stage and the former can come out best again though there should be little between them. Moonhall Girl finished fourth in a handicap on the same card, when Cursory Exam was just behind, but appears to need further. No Patience got off the mark when dropped back to 6f at Cork though finished strongly and the longer trip isn't a problem. THE BLUE PANTHER is comfortably the pick on form though has been put in on a high claiming price. A nursery winner at Bellewstown, he ran well in a lucrative sales race at the Curragh and is taken to concede the weight.
