Verdict

Boasting a progressive profile over hurdles following a lengthy absence last term, NEMEAN LION marked himself down as one to keep on the right side of when landing a Kelso Grade 2 in good style on his final start in March and he could well be up to making a winning return/handicap debut from what looks an appealing mark. Gin Coco has gone well fresh previously and he's feared, with Strong Leader and Irish- raider Fiveonefive also fancied to be on the premises.

  1. NEMEAN LION (GER)
  2. GIN COCO (FR)
  3. STRONG LEADER
