Both Paddy Power and Celebration have a chance for Richard Fahey and are preferred to stablemate Arctic Feeling. Thesme won twice here last year and ran well in a higher grade sprint behind Hoofalong at Musselburgh last time while Fredricka is another to consider having won at Redcar before going close again at Ayr recently. CAPTAIN COLBY won at at Newmarket last year but faded badly in the closing stages from a wide draw at Newcastle on his reappearance and first start for Ed Walker. But he still showed plenty of early pace on his return and a chance is taken he’s back to his best today. Bogart went close here in May and El Astronaute finished ahead of Silvanus when fourth at Ayr but recent Chester winner Bondi Beach Boy is upped in class and Seve is preferred.
