rise and shine

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'rousing remark' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.

'moving in readiness catching husband's' is the wordplay.
'moving' indicates an anagram (letters are moved around).
'catching' indicates putting letters inside.
'husband' becomes 'h' (abbreviation).
'in'+'readiness'='inreadiness'
'inreadiness' anagrammed gives 'riseandsine'.
'riseandsine' going around 'h' is 'RISE AND SHINE'.

Can you help me to learn more?
