TOUSSAROK ran no sort of race at Chester but he loved racing off the front when successful here in May and he can make his class count. Batchelor Boy was well held on that occasion but wouldn’t be out of this if reproducing the form of his victory here a month earlier though Verreaux Eagle will reoppose John Gallagher’s charge on marginally better terms. Roman Dynasty is tried in blinkers in an attempt to reinvigorate him back in the right direction while Zulu Girl scored over a mile here last month before a poor run at Bath.
