In depth

Verdict

Marmajuke Bay reappears off a 5lb higher mark for winning over track and trip in October but Jacob Cats is a more recent course winner having scored over 1m3f here last week for which he’s penalised 6lb. Priors Brook won at Lingfield in November and went close again off today’s mark last time but DREAM LOVE is the least exposed. Placed over today’s trip on her handicap debut, she’s fancied to show further progress with Jim Crowley taking over the reins and gets the vote.
