Verdict

Sigurd is on a roll and has Brian Hughes in the saddle again but he has more than 11 lengths to find with THE MANUSCRIPT on Market Rasen running last month and is 8lb worse off. Jonjo O’Neill’s charge showed massive improvement that day and has to be the selection today if that wasn’t a false dawn. Event Of Sivola’s fall at Ayr was a rare blemish and it would be no surprise to see him back in the frame here while Ladronne has been steadily coming to hand. Dragonfruit is 1-1 over fences and only a six-year-old so preferred to Absolutely Dylan and Cougar's Gold of the others.
