Celsiana was quietly fancied at Towcester but only beat one home and now has something to prove. ACEY MILAN is a full brother to winning hurdler/chaser Lord Wishes, who won a bumper on his racecourse debut. Anthony Honeyball's newcomer can also make a winning start, though Significant Other could also be a nice prospect as he's a half-brother to four winning jumpers including the useful Village Vic, also a bumper winner. Volcano is a half-brother to fair hurdler Rolling Star and by proven NH sire Martaline so is another newcomer to consider.
