Verdict

The Ado McGuinness-trained WAR HERO can add to his C&D win last month in this contest. The five-year-old carries 4lb more here but can get the better of his rivals with jockey Declan McDonagh boasting a record of a win and a second on the Declaration Of War gelding. The Denis Hogan-trained Sceptical appears to be the biggest danger with Empire State and Aloysius Lilius next best.
