CITY ESCAPE is taking her racing really well, so Mark Loughnane's 8-y-o mare is fancied to notch C&D victory number 6 at the expense of Curtiz, who was back at the scene of his last win and ran well when second after 4 months off at Chelmsford 4 weeks ago. Whiteley Way, who ran up to her best over C&D last time, can edge out Forever Proud for minor honours.
