Not the strongest of maidens to end proceedings but ANTIQUE PLATINUM should send Dermot Weld's vast army of supporters home happy. She didn't attract much support on her debut at Naas but stayed on nicely once getting the hang of the job and would have finished closer but for being impeded. Rightway made an eye-catching debut at the Curragh and started odds-on for her next run at Leopardstown but had no answer to Some Spirit, though the winner looked useful. Henson will be dropping down to this trip for the first time and will be finding a race soon though he may have to wait for a handicap. The remainder will need to show plenty of progress to get involved.
