CELEBRATION DAY found one too good at Yarmouth attempting to follow up a course and distance success. But he still beat two subsequent winners last time and should make another bold bid. Cape Peninsular went close in a handicap before winning a maiden race at Wolverhampton and Mikmak was beaten less than a length in soft ground at Leicester recently. Tee It Up Tommo will find this tougher than last week’s win over a mile here and Mr Red Clubs also has a bit to prove over today’s longer trip.
