Vasco D'ycy made a successful return from a lengthy absence at Ayr but has an 8lb higher mark to defy here. Late Date was travelling strongly when unseating his rider in that race, however, and has since finished second at Kelso. Log On makes his handicap company in ordinary company but long-standing maiden Dutch Canyon is thoroughly exposed. RHYMERS STONE (NAP) won over course and distance in January and is back in the right grade after a fourth at Kelso. He might be the one to beat as Fearless Tunes blotted his copybook last time at Uttoxeter.
