Old rivals Vasco D'ycy and Late Date renew battle, with the latter hoping to prove a point after crashing out when travelling well at the fourth last in the race won at Ayr by Julia Brooke's returning eight-year-old. However, RHYMERS STONE is unbeaten at this track in three races, and did well to win over 2m6f in January, and can be fancied to defy a 5lb higher mark, promising to be much better suited by dropping back to this 2m4f trip in an open looking contest.
