Fair and consistent maiden on Flat in France and similar form over hurdles, again going down only narrowly in a C&D maiden 3 weeks ago. Should be firmly in the mix once again.

Fairly useful Flat winner who offered little encouragement when last of 4 on recent Cheltenham hurdle debut. Should do better.

1/3
Useful handicapper on Flat who is something of a ticking timebomb in terms of temperament but did little wrong when thwarted only by a stablemate at Listowel in September and not disgraced back on the level since. Sets a clear standard.

£45,000 buy after finishing runner-up only outing in Irish points but shaped with little promise in a Bangor bumper on Rules debut 4 weeks ago.

Fair handicapper on Flat (stays 1¼m), successful twice in 2024, below form last time. Could have a future in this sphere.

Showed a bit when third in a Newton Abbot bumper on debut but has gone sharply downhill since, pulled up all 3 starts over hurdles, including on the back of a breathing operation last time.

Forecasts

Mr Escobar (1/3), Kingston Narcissus (11/4), Maghlaak (8/1), Val Bassett (12/1), Paddys Policy (22/1), She's Got Bottle (33/1), Myfavouritesister (40/1), Fujita Scale (80/1), Tres Bien (150/1), Tan Law (200/1), Knight Of Magic (300/1), Royal Romance (300/1)

Verdict

MR ESCOBAR is something of a ticking timebomb in terms of temperament but did little wrong when thwarted only by a stablemate at Listowel on his most recent outing in this sphere in September and sets a pretty high standard. Kingston Narcissus is likely to give his running once again, while Maghlaak should do better in this sphere at some stage given his fairly useful Flat form.
