Verdict

Kian Calling will likely to have derived some benefit from his run at Market Rasen but he has a bit to find with SAN ROCH and Huntsman's Call and it's the former who gets the nod as the latter was well beaten at Market Rasen on Friday. Barranco, who attracted market support at Punchestown in April, is respected for Stuart Crawford while Dear Alix led into the straight here on debut but faded to finish third and has had a break since.
