      Verdict

      Course and distance winner Nemean Lion gets first-time blinkers but finished tailed off in a lesser contest last time and is 4lb out of the handicap. Squouateur is on a long losing run but Chanceiton arrives in fine form, though has been doing his winning over fences this year. Sporting Boy alternates between hurdles and fences but has looked out of sorts lately, though he stays well and Brian Hughes takes over the reins. HANDY HOLLOW has placed twice over track and trip and slips further down the weights so gets a tentative vote with Little Millie looking high enough in the handicap at present.
