    Verdict

    Escholido sets a decent standard and will surely find a race before the end of the season but it may just be worth taking him on with AIR OF GRACE. This is a somewhat belated debut for a colt that made 170,000 guineas at the breeze-ups but he clearly impressed on the track in April and is taken to make a winning start to his career before tackling middle distances next season. Conjuror's Bluff, Hermes and Osgoodisgood are other newcomers for whom market support would be of interest whilst Sergeant Troy and Afaara hail from yards whose juveniles often derive considerable improvement from their initial outings and the ring may reflect how much progress they've made in the interim.
