Verdict
ESCARDO came good with an improved effort nine days ago when running out a comfortable Newton Abbot winner and can supplement gains under similar conditions despite a 7lb penalty. He's suited by a good pace which seems inevitable with confirmed trailblazer My Condor on duty. The Grey One uncharacteristically unseated early on at Southwell last time but Milton Bradley's gelding is normally a consistent and safe conveyance well suited by 2m on good ground, having scored under such conditions on his penultimate outing at Hereford. Earl Grez, way below par the last twice, has claims if recovering his best.
