Verdict

REAL STEEL can add to his couple of Grade 2 wins over fences this season by landing the spoils here ahead of his nearest rival Chris's Dream. The Willie Mullins-trained seven-year-old is the highest rated in the field racing 4lb superior to his biggest danger who represents the yard who won this contest 12 months ago with Monalee. The Gordon Elliott-yard who have won this contest on just one occasion in 2013 with Chicago Grey when the race was run at Navan can compete for the remaining prize money with his pair Death Duty and the mare, Shattered Love.
