In depth
Verdict
Well beaten in a Class 4 handicap last time, ASPIRANT won a couple of selling races in December that included a victory over course and distance. Bill Turner's charge can pick up the winning thread back at this level. Ealain Aibrean is weighted to go close but has done most of her racing over 5f including recent placed efforts at Southwell and on the Polytrack before that. Skinny Love won at Wolverhampton the last time he competed in plating company and has the beating of The Doyle Machine and Sandsman's Girl on today's terms.
