EXOTIC ESCAPE didn't beat a lot here last week but she won by such a wide margin that she's impossible to oppose under her penalty. Grimsthorpe Castle has become one of the most consistent horses around here this all-weather season and should give her a race. Fortultous is another to consider given his course record.
