Verdict

After a promising debut at York, HAPPY CALL started odds-on at Ffos Las and looked certain to win until caught on the post. He can go one better though Canny Style will ensure he doesn't have things his own way. Kevin Ryan's filly has attempted to make all over 7f on her last two starts and has only been caught in the later stages so the drop in trip looks certain to suit. Hunter Jack showed enough on his debut at Ripon to suggest he can be winning soon and Bush Babe stayed on late after missing the break on her debut here in June.
