200/1
Failed to finish in three point-to-point starts for two yards in 2018 and is probably best watched on his debut for this yard following nearly two years off the track.
Winner of a 2m4f handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (good-to-soft) by 7L last time out. Top jockey in the saddle and is a notable runner in this contest.

5/2
Making his first appearance since wind surgery when finishing fourth in a handicap hurdle over an extended 2m4f at Huntingdon (soft) just under a month ago. One to note on this occasion.

16/1
Well beaten seventh in a handicap hurdle over an extended 3m at Doncaster (good) earlier this month. Sent off favourite that dayand is worth a check in the market in this event.

Age: 11|  Weight: 11-2| J: Lorcan Murtagh(3)| T: D McCain Jnr| D
50/1
Fair effort when 29L fourth in a 2m4f handicap hurdle at Musselburgh (good-to-soft) in November. Given a break since and is worth a check in the market on his return to action.
Pulled up in first time cheekpieces (retained) in a 2m5f handicap hurdle at Kempton (soft) in December. Absent since and holds strong claims for a top trainer.

7/2
Well held 11th, beaten 34L in first time cheekpieces (absent here) in a valuable Listed handicap chase over 3m at Doncaster just under a month ago. One to note for a leading stable.
8
Horse silk
250/1
Sole success came in a 3m handicap hurdle at Southwell (good) in May 2018. Out of form of late and others appear to hold stronger claims.

Forecasts

Rhythm Is A Dancer (9/4), Lantiern (5/2), Highway Companion (7/2), Solomon Grey (7/2), Merry Milan (16/1), Nefyn Bay (50/1), Big Water (200/1), The Lion Man (250/1)

Verdict

RHYTHM IS A DANCER returns from a break here and he can register a victory in this competitive looking eight runner event. Trained by Paul Nicholls, the gelding has shown useful form over over jumps and he can get the better of Solomon Grey who was pulled up in a competitive event last time out. Third place can go to Highway Companion who was victorious in a hurdle when last in action.
  1. Rhythm Is A Dancer
  2. Solomon Grey
  3. Highway Companion
