GETAWAY TOTHEROCK pulled 10 lengths clear of the odds-on Subway Surf at Ludlow, despite starting at 20/1. Given her background, she’ll make an even better chaser but can defy her penalty in this. Delight Of Dubai made an impressive winning start under Rules at Lingfield and is another embryo chaser. Eleanor Bob has won her last two and should cope with a step up in distance but she is giving 6lb to her likely market rivals. Brushed Up is likely to need this and it will be a surprise if any of the others are good enough.
