Verdict

Escobedo arrives in winning form having scored over timber at Sedgefield last month though he's yet to be placed on the all-weather. Kodi Noir, a winner at Chelmsford in September, is only 2lb higher and has a 7lb claimer on board so has to be respected as does Lingfield winner Native Melody, who has the experienced Ross Birkett on board. BRAVE DISPLAY has managed to win eight races and has been staying on in his recent runs here including on Tuesday. With this likely to be run at a fast gallop he should be staying on late enough to snatch the spoils in a race where nothing can be ruled out.
