In depth

Verdict

Swiss Pride was gelded over the winter and won a maiden over track and trip on his reappearance. But BELEAGUERMENT has been competing in tougher sprints than this and after placing on a trip over to France earlier this month, he can confirm earlier running with Klass Action and come out best. Fizzy Feet, Penarth Pier and Kapono are all novice winners though the latter pair were both well beaten on their handicap debuts but Distant Mirage made a winning start in handicaps when successful at Kempton last month and is 5lb higher. The returning Warning Fire is worth a second glance in the betting of the remainder.
