Two of Ireland's chasing stars will do battle when War of Attrition and Beef or Salmon meet in the Lexus Chase at Leopardstown on Thursday.
Just six runners will line up for the Grade One three-mile contest.

Michael Hourigan's Beef or Salmon, a three-time winner of the race, beat Cheltenham Gold Cup hero War of Attrition at Down Royal in November.

Former classy hurdler Back In Front also runs while Robert Alner's The Listener is the sole British hope.
