Verdict

WAR HERO seemed to excel himself from almost a stone out of the handicap when runner-up over C&D 19 days ago and a reproduction of that form can see him go one better in this company. Sister Rosetta can make her presence felt if bouncing back from a below-par effort here last month, while Hightown Heights and Rocky Dreams are others to consider.
