        Verdict

        MASSINI'S TRAP went to Leopardstown for his debut and started 25/1 but almost defied those odds when staying on strongly behind Unanimous. That was over a mile so today's slightly longer trip is in his favour and he should go one better. Cape Violet was around eight lengths behind that day and has since upheld the form over a shorter trip at Down Royal but Jumbo Prada ran disappointingly at Leopardstown last month after a much better effort at Cork. Phangio has been out of his depth in a couple of decent maidens and this is a slight drop in grade.
