Verdict
Eight of LORD LESCRIBAA's 18 career starts have been at this track. He's a pound higher than when runner-up to Tot Of The Knar over C&D 13 days ago but Chris Geoghegan is good value for his 3lb claim and the eight-year-old is fancied to go one better today. Winning Show is the likely danger on his win at Fontwell in May, though Mr Bond has ability and potentially well handicapped if Tim Vaughan can sort out his jumping. Benefit Game looks to have too much weight, however, while Tuesday's Child is getting a bit long in the tooth nowadays.
