Verdict

HEROES OF RENOWN can land a shock in the closer. The Beneficial gelding cost €140,000 as a three-year-old and the half-brother of Death Duty can hold off the attentions of the Willie Mullins-trained Castle North and the two Gigginstown House Stud-owned, Active Force and half-brother to Fauheen, Osmotic.
