Verdict

HEIGHTS OF ARAN found a bit more in the closing stages to win by a neck here last time. He’s penalised but should be sharper for that first run since September and go close again. Mackenzie Rose posted a better effort went sent off favourite at Musselburgh last month and can figure while both Wynter Wildes and Cianciana have won at Southwell and the former drops back down in class. Lady Valentine may prove best of the remainder.
