CALL ME A STAR had Eleven Fifty Nine and Buxom behind when landing a Listed bumper at Sandown in March. Anthony Honeyball's mare went on to reverse the form on better going at Aintree, when Buxom was again behind, but we'll take Alan King's charge to come out on top again now that there is more give in the ground. La Calinda, like Buxom, has experience over timber but this looks a fairly hot maiden hurdle and Liqeuer Rose may be found wanting. Lisselan Pleasure is a winner on the Flat but best watched here.
