        Verdict

        Escobedo has a lot to prove now having got nowhere near the trail-blazing Kingston Sunflower in two runs this term. Mamluk hasn’t reproduced his third at Plumpton in April and Baliyad has also gone backwards since landing a Stratford seller in September. Mind Hunter will have needed his run at Ffos Las, however, though looks too close in the weights to CORNICELLO, who followed up a win at Plumpton with a second at Hereford.
