Verdict
Sigurd is 2-2 around here and back in this grade for the first time since scoring at Wetherby in March. Event Of Sivola won off this mark at Ayr in October while No Cruise Yet attempts to defy a 6lb rise for winning at Sedgefield. Scottish Accent was well backed at Newcastle 10 days ago and is on a decent mark, though can run in snatches. REPRESENTING BOB (NAP) is proving a much better chaser than hurdler so can be forgiven his defeat over the smaller obstacles at Chepstow last time when looking ready for a step up in distance.
