Formscan - Escapologist was far from disgraced when hitting the crossbar at Fakenham last month and he holds an obvious chance boasting a rating of 121. However, it may pay to side with SOUTH OMO ZONE, who ran too bad to be true when pulled up on heavy ground at Exeter last time. If he can build on his victory at Wincanton prior to that, then he could be the one to beat. Jack Hyde is another to note.
