      Verdict

      Deep down we all love some BONDAGE and James Fanshawe's gelding gets the nod. A course and distance winner on his penultimate start, this reliable gelding is tried in a rather exotic combination of headgear. Into The Light is consistent and respected, as is his Wolverhampton conqueror Country Road dispute having to give weight away all round. Easy Terms tries a visor as she searches for a first win, but along with Dane Cottage and Not In The Clock looks eminently opposable.
