WHITE RHINO is now 19 lb higher compared to when making a winning handicap debut over C&D last month, but the way he went about his business when going in again at Wetherby a week later suggested that he is on a pretty steep upward curve. Indeed, this low-mileage 7-y-o probably has more to offer and he gets the nod ahead of another with few miles on the clock in Bertie Blue. If Glencassley is tuned-up following a break he could also have a say, along with the consistent Leading Theatre.
