Verdict

ESCAPEANDEVADE shaped really well on his first run for Harry Derham when runner-up at Worcester last month and gets a confident vote to go one better here with that form having been franked since. Gentleman Bill could emerge as the chief threat on the back of a promising chasing debut Aintree third, with Miralago and Sunnyvilla also not out of things.
