Verdict

The veteran Long Call ended a long losing run on the Flat with a victory over a longer trip at Leicester but SUN FESTIVAL (NAP) looks the one to side with. The latter placed at Newcastle last time having won over track and trip earlier with No Diggity back in fourth and is reunited with winning partner Neil Callan for this. Letter Of The Law won here back in May and finished in front of Cape Cornwall Rose when runner-up at the track subsequently.
