Verdict
Call Of The Loon’s only victory to date over fences came in this race 12 months ago. He has placed in all four starts since, however, so a repeat is not out of the question even though he is still 7lb higher. But, on collateral form, he has a bit to find with June’s Newton Abbot winner CRESSWELL QUEEN, who is also less exposed. O'Faolains Lad doesn’t look the force of old and Sharp Note may have two ways of running with Reign Suepreme also hard to catch right and still a maiden.
