Sigurd has been running well enough to get involved. Nemean Lion hinted at a revival at Stratford and is only a pound higher than when successful at Catterick at the end of last year. It's For Alan won at Fontwell last month but has 7lb more here while Zamoyski has been looking a tricky ride lately. Loud As Lions was only third when favourite over track and trip last time and has gone up 3lb. HANDY HOLLOW (NAP) had every chance when unseating his rider on his reappearance at Huntingdon. A past course winner, he will strip fitter today so gets the nod.
