Verdict

Tokay Dokey won his first three starts but was injured after falling in a Grade 2 at Kempton on his fourth outing and beaten a long way when reappearing over fences. Bannister has also been chasing, along with fellow four-year-old Naizagai, so we’ll take a chance on GETAWAY LUV (NAP), who had solid novice form last season and will have needed a recent run at Huntingdon. Belle De Manech made a promising reappearance at Lingfield with the returning Starvoski and File Illico others to consider.
