FIVE STAR GETAWAY possibly wasn't over his experience at Aintree when running poorly at Kempton so could be worth chancing off a tempting mark back from a break and with headgear applied. Easy As That proved all the better for his chase bow/belated comeback when scoring at Haydock and is the obvious threat with further progress likely.
