Verdict
CHIEF OF PANAMA went up 5lb for his victory at Gowran in October and couldn't quite cope when runner-up here a couple of weeks later. Ger Fox's claim is a bonus here and he can get back on the winning trail. Visible Light and Tb Broke Her fought out the finish of a similar event at Clonmel in February with the latter just prevailing but today's conditions just favour Fran Flood's charge. Mosman Park seems better over a bit further while Mustadrik has plenty to do for a four-year-old despite a light weight.
