Verdict
Rhythm bids for a hat-trick on her reappearance 5b higher than when scoring at Pontefract in October while J R Cavagin won at Doncaster is September. Murbih was successful at Wolverhampton before going close over 5f at the track when ahead of Kraken Power but course regular ATHOLLBLAIR BOY was winning for the ninth time here when beating Tathmeen over track and trip and another bold bid is expected.
