Moveable Asset has won on the Flat and over timber in Ireland for Willie Mullins but hasn't run since September. Rumble Of Thunder landed a Musselburgh handicap early last month and made a bold bid to defy a 4lb rise back there a couple of weeks later when Kayaan was six length behind. CLOUD CREEPER had been unfortunate not to have won a race before finally doing so in impressive fashion at Southwell and doesn't look badly treated for his handicap debut. He's just handed the vote in receipt of 8lb from Top Gamble, who had just started to weaken over 3m on heavy ground at Exeter when coming to grief in a race won by subsequent Cheltenham winner Fingal Bay.
