Verdict
Gaelic Wizard has found only one too good on three occasions now but his form tapered off toward the end of the year and Clock Opera is preferred. She's getting plenty of weight from her older rival and is making steady progress but may find CHARTER has the edge on her in this. The latter led briefly inside the final furlong at Kempton last time until caught by Whipper Snapper and is fancied to hang on for victory this time. The remainder have shown little so far and are hard to fancy.
