In depth
Verdict
We'll Meet Again is taken to confirm his superiority over Bond Millennium and gets the nod in the finale. Primshade Promise also comes into the reckoning on last month's encounter with the selection and should also be on the premises at the finish. However, she is not the most resolute battler and is not one to rely upon too heavily when asked for extra effort. Bond Millennium put in one of his better performances last time out and could be on the way back. Nevertheless, he too is hard to win with and will find the selection a tough customer to deal with if he is in the right frame of mind tonight. There is reason to suspect that he will not be, so We'll Meet Again gets a confident vote in the finale.
