Race preview
THE BLUE PANTHER, in at the maximum 50,000 Euro claiming price, could prove capable of conceding weight away all round here. An 87-rated son of Buratino, the Mulvany's charge has to prove himself at the seven furlongs but there's hardly a major doubt about him getting it. The Blue Panther ran in the big field Tattersalls Ireland Super Auction Sale Stakes on Irish Champions Weekend at the Curragh, and he performed okay to finish seventh, beaten over six lengths by the winner, Shark Two One. Calmer waters as the saying goes, face the selection here. The ratings say Zoffany's Delight could be the biggest danger. You'd be slow to rule out Cursory Exam, The Last Knight and No Patience too readily either though.
