WATCH: Can Aspire To Glory land the Club a Boxing Day winner?
Our three-year-old was only seen in action last Thursday when finishing 8th at Chelmsford, but despite the end result, the way he travelled that day gave trainer Alice Haynes plenty of belief that the step back down to seven furlongs from a mile could give him a big chance of going close if finding the right opportunity soon enough.
Jockey Darragh Keenan echoed that sentiment and after the contest at Chelmsford told Alice that Aspire To Glory moved great, but just felt the mile stretched him, which makes sense as all of his best and winning form so far has come over 7f.
Tune in to our latest declaration video from John Hill to find out more ahead of Thursday's contest and be sure to join us from 10am on Boxing Day for our Raceday LIVE Preview.
