Rhythm Is A Dancer has shown enough in soft-ground bumpers at Kempton to suggest he'll be thereabouts while Kauto The King has run well and was in with a chance for a long way at Wincanton, just failing to quicken at a crucial stage. Earth Moor will be better for his run in the same race while Shiroccan Roll showed promise at Doncaster in December. GREY DIAMOND and Rufio are newcomers to note and the former has enough pace in his pedigree to suggest he may be up to making a successful debut.
