Danny Grant, fresh from a Galway success yesterday on Isabellareine, struck again on Foolproof at Cork when that one gave John Murphy a welcome winner at his local track in the Navigation Road Nursery.

Grant made virtually all on the successful King's Best colt and he proved three parts of a length too strong for Long Time Coming

Murphy commented: "He got a bit jarred in Navan (firm) and the ground here was beautiful, which was a help. He could prove to be very smart and Danny said he was still a bit green in front there."
