      Verdict

      Second in both starts so far and gelded since last seen, the superbly-bred MAYDANNY gets another chance to come good on his handicap debut as an opening mark of 80 could be extremely generous. City Wanderer won three of his last four starts last year and Silvester De Sousa partners on his reappearance. Rum Baba remains unexposed but is having a first run in almost a year while Two Bids failed to deliver on several occasions last season and is now tried in a hood. First Response has won three times on the all-weather but is 0-9 on Turf.
