RACING POST VERDICT
Hero Of The Hour is now a few pounds below his last successful mark and ran with credit over a longer trip on his comeback — stepping back to a demanding 5f makes sense and the form around him is solid enough to take him seriously. Steel Magnolia has been in good form at this trip and is the most consistent rival, though she has been placed rather than taking the prize when the chance has arisen. Whatswrongnow has been close at the business end in recent starts and is another live threat, while You Smiled catches the eye at the foot of the weights having been handed a favourable opening assessment. Hero Of The Hour is our selection.
