Verdict

RHYTHM N HOOVES has found some consistency on all-weather this winter, making it 2 wins from his last 3 starts at Southwell 11 days ago. He's fancied to make another bold bid from this 3 lb higher mark. Kings Merchant enjoyed a very productive 2024 and he's a player if ready to roll back from 6 months off. Almaty Star, another last-time-out winner for the Robert Cowell stable, is another to consider.
