In depth
Verdict
AERONWYN BRYN makes a quick reappearance having won at Thirsk during the week. Michael Dods' filly should have little trouble defying a penalty in this company. Just A Pound has been placed in a couple of subsequent starts since scoring at Bath but the handicapper isn't about to relent just yet. He still makes more appeal than the rest of the field unless the step up in trip turns out to suit Spider House or Look On By can improve on his latest fourth at Hamilton where he finished ahead of Sakhees Romance and Riponian.
