        Verdict

        Henson was outpaced over a mile at Naas but stayed on late so should be suited by the longer trip. Ceylon was always in touch on her reappearance over this trip at Cork and kept on well enough to suggest she'll get involved here, a remark that also applies to Giorgi who was a 33/1 chance on her debut at Ballinrobe but very nearly snatched the spoils. Got To Dream didn't enjoy the fast ground or longer trip at Tipperary last week and can do better but the vote goes to Dermot Weld's newcomer MASSINGA, who is by Selkirk and out of a mare who has produced a winner with her only runner to date. She's owned by the Aga Khan who also has Michael Halford's Zaiman entered, though he's bred for further.
