Verdict

There is a fair degree of faith required to fancy CALLING THE WIND after the way he ran at Musselburgh on his seasonal/turf debut when tailed off. There was clearly something amiss with him though, and he has been given a month to get over whatever was bothering him. He boasted a progressive profile last season on the AW and may be able to get back on track. Just Hubert is next best after running well in defeat behind an exciting colt of John Gosden's in a better class race than this at Newbury last week, while Agravain must also be respected when in such a rich vein of form. He is likely to make a bold bid from the front, as he did when scoring at Beverley recently.
