JUST CALL ME AL might be worth siding with to build on his latest Musselburgh second returned to a venue which suits him well. Coup de Gold and Swift Reply, first and second over C&D on their latest starts, are others to consider, while the returning Ring Pretender is less exposed than most of these and needs keeping a close eye on in the betting having shown promise on both previous hurdle starts.
