Dancingwith Storms ran well returning from a lengthy absence at Huntingdon but the handicapper has begun to show DREAM MACHINE some mercy and he was in the process of running a solid race at Musselburgh in November when coming to grief. He might be a bit of value getting plenty of weight from the Fontwell winner Bashful Boy and Ginistrelli, who is eased in grade having fallen last time at Ludlow. Jersey Grey looks the pick of the remainder.
