FIVE STAR GETAWAY landed a gamble in taking fashion at Wincanton last week and the manor of that victory suggested Christian Williams' 7-y-o is far from finished improving. This is a much warmer race but he gets the nod to follow up from an 11 lb higher mark. Go Steady bolted up at Huntingdon for the in-form Skelton brothers 16 days ago and rates the main threat, ahead of Golden Whisky.
