Verdict
Regularly placed but with only one victory in 46 starts, Warbond is as hard to win with as ever. DELIGHTFUL SLEEP makes more appeal on his latest third at Leicester with an apprentice's 3lb allowance helping his cause. Divine Rule also has claims with a claimer on board if back to his best and Katmai River pops up from time to time at this level but recent Bath winner Zed Candy Girl has been upped 6lb and Polydamos remains winless in 22 outings.
