Archie Watson's stable star SOLDIER'S CALL developed into one of the best and fastest two-year-olds in training last season and after an excellent third to the exceptional Blue Point at Ascot latest he looks a standout candidate here. Garrus has certainly improved this season and may provide the stiffest test although Equilateral does threaten to have a big day in him.
