Gaelic Myth should be winning soon judged on placed efforts at Wetherby and Taunton. Stars Royale ran good yardstick The Green Ogre to a length at Plumpton earlier this month and is another with plenty of scope but Hear The Chimes is looking exposed and a longer trip would probably suit ex-pointer Peterpanopirateman. TEA FOR TWO has a penalty for winning at Kempton in October but he was far from disgraced in a Class 3 at Newbury last time and Lizzie Kelly is good value for her claim - her mount can get back to winning ways.
