VERDICT: Still a lively outsider in the ante-post markets for the Stayers' Hurdle at Cheltenham, a race of this nature should be well within the grasp of Nemean Lion, who is a strong fancy to complete a hat-trick. That is not to underestimate the challenges presented by old rivals Salver and Blueking D'oroux, who are both very capable of capitalising if Kerry Lee's gelding doesn't fire on all cylinders.
