Verdict

Proclaimer rattled up a four-timer last year and made a winning return over track and trip. Spirit Of The Bay is attempting to perform the same feat on her reappearance having been raised 3lb for her latest success when scoring at Sandown in September. Stately Home was narrowly beaten here last time and is preferred to handicap debutant Handel but a chance is taken on BRAINS. The latter has been competing in valuable handicaps in Bahrain since scoring over course and distance in November and looks to face an easier task in this.
