Harry banishes a boggart, then is asked to conjure a Patronus?

In the OWL chapter of OoP, Harry banishes a boggart and then is asked by an 
OWL examiner (Professor Tofty?) to conjure a Patronus for an extra bonus 
point, which he does without difficulty.  But, if Harry had just banished a 
boggart, and assuming that he is still most afraid of a dementor, wouldn't 
the boggart have manifested as a dementor, and thus, wouldn't Harry have 
just demonstrated the Patronus charm?  Or, would he have used "Riddikkulus" 
(sp.) despite whatever the boggart became?  JKR doesn't state in canon what 
Harry's boggart turns into, so what do you think he is most afraid of now? 
Any thoughts?
