      Verdict

      Captain Bob finally returned to winning ways when scoring at Newmarket under today’s apprentice. He beat East Coast Lady and the latter went on to win over 7f at Chelmsford while Perfect Pastime beat subsequent winner Black Caesar at Brighton back in May. Justice Rock is upped in class after winning at Yarmouth but CHAMPAGNE BOB was ahead of Oeil De Tigre when a close-up third at Chepstow last time and he gets the nod to come out best in a tight contest.
