      Verdict

      Boragh Steps won over this trip at Fairyhouse last summer but had been racing over the minimum before battling to victory over 6f here three weeks ago. She has another furlong to travel but should have no problems seeing off Fancy Dresser, who scored four times in France but was well behind Joseph O'Brien's filly last time. However, Tell Me, who was beaten four lengths into fourth, was having her first run for new connections after racing in the UK last summer and was staying on at the finish so she should get much closer. WAR HERO got up in the final strides to land a 6f maiden here in November and has been placed over further in his last three starts including a mile last time. He's guaranteed to be suited by the distance so gets the nod. Rock On Seamie looks as though he needs further and Danactini was well beaten on her only start.
