Daily Nap January 21: Glace can be cherry on punters' cake at Rasen

Planet Sport tipster Jonathan Doidge heads to the delightful Lincolnshire track that is Market Rasen for Friday's nap. A win for this horse at Fontwell last time has left Oliver Sherwood wanting more.
Friday's nap goes at Market Rasen in the Symphony Group Handicap Chase (15.15). Cilaos Glace represents trainer Oliver Sherwood and can hit all the right notes.
He's returned to chasing this season, having shown some ability over fences previously, but not converting that into success. He did that last time out at Fontwell, however, where he was always in the van, took up the running from some way out, and went on to win by over seven lengths.
That was on soft ground over Fontwell's extended 2m3f trip and the further he went, the better he got. Admittedly, the form of that race can be questioned to some extent, but he did win it decisively and this step up to three miles for the first time can pave the way to further success.
He is up 6lb, but I think he'll still be ahead of the handicapper from this mark of 116, so I'm taking Cilaos Glace as the one to be on at Market Rasen on Friday, in the 15.15.
