Mr Escobar

Selected at: 13/2

Willie Mullins’ Mr Escobar won a novice hurdle at Sedgefield when last seen and the form has worked out particularly well. Denied by the narrowest of margins when second off a 3lb lower mark at Chester in September, a similar effort here would put him bang in the mix.
