DIAMOND VINE showed the benefit of a slide down the weights at Lingfield a fortnight ago where he finished runner-up to Johnny Splash. Ron Harris' charge gets the token vote in a low grade sprint off his current mark. Outbid carries a penalty for Thursday's win over 5f here when Methaaly, Ishetoo and Exkaliber all finished down the field. She should figure again, but Catalyze has been well beaten since scoring over track and trip in January.
