Hero Of The Hour has been one of the success stories of the Winter Series in Dundalk and bids to supplement recent gains in the Book Online At DundalkStadium.com Handicap tomorrow.

George Kingston's six-year-old gelding won three times in four races at the venue between January and March, all with Chris Hayes on board.

All of those contests were over six furlongs and he now drops back to the minimum trip under Hayes, however, Kingston is hopeful of another big run before a possible switch to turf in the Curragh on Sunday.

Crucially, he remains in the same 47-65 grade.

The trainer said: "Hero Of The Hour has some okay form over five furlongs and it is his first time running five with blinkers on, so hopeful.

"We may declare for the Curragh also, with maybe a claimer on board."

Hero Of The Hour holds an entry in a six-furlong handicap at Headquarters on Sunday.
