In depth
Verdict
Toussarok’s earlier success at Catterick came over 7f but Swiss Pride will appreciate the return to today’s trip and could go close under William Buick. Invincible Larne has been thereabouts lately and Alphonse Karr placed here a fortnight ago but ARAIFJAN (NAP) won over course and distance early in the year and has subsequently gone close again at the track in a higher grade sprint than this. Bob Cowell’s charge may prove the one to side with back at this venue.
