        Verdict

        Just Bond won last time but the race was run to suit that day and we prefer the claims of Dream Lodge this afternoon, Stargazer Jim is the other for the shortlist. The selection goes well here and he confirmed his well-being when winning at Pontefract last time out. He has a decent draw today and he can lead them home. Just Bond did finish in front of our selection here last time but he got the run of the race that day and although he is again well drawn, we think the placings will be reversed this afternoon. Stargazer Jim is another with plenty to recommend him as he won well last time and this course and distance winner does have the benefit of a good draw. Guacamole will need some luck to score from his high draw, and we will stick with Dream Lodge who can make it back-to-back wins.
