Collectors Item could be an interesting recruit having finished runner-up in a maiden point in November. Firestream made it third-time lucky at Exeter in January and Hardy Fella came good at Fontwell but both are penalised. Weveallbeencaught has won between the flags and Samourai One has been knocking the door but CAPTAIN DESTINY shaped well behind a useful odds-on favourite here on debut and can go one better.
