MR ESCOBAR has been given a bit of time since his run at Lingfield over Easter and is well worth another chance to show what he can do for the Willie Mullins yard. The progressive Chally Chute heads the dangers on the back of his good reappearance run at Tipperary. Safecracker also makes the shortlist after his recent Cork second, while Teed Up will also play a part if resuming in the same form as when second in the November Handicap at Doncaster.
