Galway Hurdle Story for Skelton Superb Story, who provided Dan Skelton with his first Cheltenham Festival winner last month, will now be aimed at a big Irish prize this summer. The exciting five-year-old, successful in the County Hurdle at Cheltenham, will bid for another big handicap win in the Galway Hurdle. "Superb Story goes straight to Galway now. That has always been the plan. What is the point of running him and wasting his handicap mark ahead of one of the most valuable handicaps on the calendar?" said Skelton. "I know that the race is in July, but it is worth a lot of money and the ground will be fine for him." Skelton also reports that Grade Two-winning novice chaser Three Musketeers, who was last seen finishing fourth in the JLT Novices' Chase at the Cheltenham Festival, will not be out again until the autumn. "Three Musketeers is finished for the season. As he has only won one chase, he is eligible for a graduation chase. "That may be used as a stepping stone to something like the Peterborough Chase, which could be his pre-Christmas target. He will be going over three miles at some point next season."
