TRIBAL MYTH ran out a cosy winner at Beverley last time when stepped up to today's trip for the first time. There should be more to come over this distance and Kevin Ryan's charge gets the vote. Zaplamation also ran well at Beverley last time when finding only Danderek too good and he can figure, while Best Prospect won the last time he raced on the Flat and arrives on the back of a victory over hurdles. Tayacoba should be winning before long and Hakuna Matata is surely better than his disappointing comeback as he won on his debut here last October.
