    Verdict

    Dancing Shadow was beaten 20 lengths on his hurdling debut over course and distance but found 2m1f too short on his latest start at Exeter. He looks the main danger to ROCK GONE, who should recover losses incurred when odds-on over 3m at Ffos Las when possibly in need of the run. Mr McGregor has won between the flags but makes his debut under Rules, but he's still preferred to the modest Main Reason.
