      Verdict

      Noble Call, the only four-year-old in the line-up, has been running well in handicaps but has it all to do against the promising pair Zalantoun and TRUTHWILLSETUFREE. The former stepped up to this trip for the first time and wasn't beaten far on soft ground at the Curragh but it's Dermot Weld's filly who gets the nod as she made a very good impression when staying on strongly behind Dane Street at Fairyhouse earlier this month and looks certain to make further progress.
