Verdict

CALL OF THE WILD created an excellent impression when defying a penalty after 3 months off at Doncaster, so he's hard to get away from with further improvement likely over this longer trip. Pull Again Green impressed when doubling his hurdles tally at Newbury recently and looks the main threat, ahead of Royaume Uni.
