Verdict
Call To Arms is tried in a visor in an attempt to break his duck over timber but the four-year-old is probably worth taking on again with CARTER. A prolific winner on the Polytrack, Ian Williams' gelding beat a decent field of novices over C&D in May, reversing earlier form with Street Dance, and should be open to further improvement. Peadar Miguel had few problems getting off the mark over C&D last month but faces a stiffer task today under a penalty.
