Hero cancement his Laurels claims

SUPERHODS HERO can cement his claims in the Cashmans Irish Laurels at Curraheen by landing a red-hot second semi-final tonight.

The top five in the Laurels betting go head-to-head in this contest, making it a race to savour and one that would do justice to the final itself.

Given the ultra-competitive nature of the race and the fact that the line-up is made up entirely of inside seeds, the draw will obviously have a vital bearing on the outcome.
