Buck's Bond got off the mark at Fontwell over fences at the second time of asking and regular partner Ryan Mahon takes off 3lb again. But he is still giving weight to experienced handicappers with Air Force One worth a second look on his favoured going and both Rossmore Lad and Key Cutter capable of running well fresh. ADDICTION had just struck the front when falling four out here last month. He's 6lb higher today but had won easily at Exeter before his recent mishap and can gain compensation. Bold Perk is potentially well treated but may not be the force of old.
