      Verdict

      Egrecio has been thereabouts on the Turf recently and debuts on the all-weather while Gold Zabeel has placed at Wolverhampton the last twice. But JOHN CLARE escapes a penalty for winning an apprentice’s race by a wide margin in heavy ground at Leicester last week and Pam Sly’s charge can take advantage. Robero is back in a winning mark but could only manage fifth here a week ago.
