Verdict

CELTIC CLASSIC steps up in trip here and he can follow up a victory on the AW at Kempton last time out with a success in this competitive handicap. The selection has a good jockey in the saddle and he can get the better of his rivals with Butterfield capable of chasing him home on debut for a new stable. Third place can go to Filament Of Gold who races off a mark 4lb higher than when taking this event 12 months ago.
