Kelka made a winning debut at Catterick but the four-year-old now has to give weight to older rivals if you ignore Jamie Hamilton's claim. CHAMPAGNE TO GO went for £20,000 after winning between the flags at Tyrella and there is enough speed in her pedigree to suggest she'll have the pace for this. Seelateralligator's stable has a 60 per cent strike rate in bumpers here so the Getaway newcomer is respected and Lagavara and Banjo Girl are other debutantes worth a market check.
