Harty favouring Galway Plate for Captain Cee Bee

CAPTAIN Cee Bee is still likely to line up in the Galway Plate even if he wins tomorrow’s Kevin McManus Bookmaker Grimes Hurdle at Tipperary.

Eddie Harty’s stable star holds entries in both major Galway races but even a win over hurdles this weekend is unlikely to deter connections from their original chasing aim.

Last seen finishing third behind Big Zeb at the Punchestown Festival, he is in receipt of weight from most of his rivals in the Grade Three event.
