Verdict
There should be better to come from RAINBOW NEBULA, who shaped well when third behind a couple of potentially decent types in a C&D novice during the Christmas period. He gets the nod. Rebel's Gamble looked promising when making a winning start to his career at Southwell and he is greatly respected, despite carrying a penalty, while newcomer Highfield Artist is appealing on paper and it'll be interesting to see how she shapes up in the betting.
