Verdict

DARVER STAR has disappointing in graded company last 2 starts, but has his sights lowered here and his stable have been back amongst the winners in recent weeks, so should get the better of Whiskey Sour, who is also liable to bounce back from a poor run (in same race as the selection) at Fairyhouse 81 days ago. Soviet Pimpernel is another one to consider.
