Dual course and distance winner ESCAPEANDEVADE (1) was no match for a progressive rival here last start. Drops 4lb in ratings. Consider. FLASH DU PISTOLET (6) opened his fences account producing a comfortable win at Newcastle over 2m4f earlier this month. Raised 7lb for that success and now dropping in trip might have more to come. GOLD DES BOIS (2) arrives freshened since a Musselburgh disappointment. Won attempting the journey here the time before. Enters calculations. BOLLINGERANDKRUG (4) is another for the shortlist.
