LONGEST TRAVELLER: KALGANOV trained by M Dods, Darlington, 156 miles.
PORT ERIN was well held on his first two starts for this yard but he has really found his feet since, posting solid efforts in defeat here either side of a battling success at Chelmsford. The 5-y-o remains feasibly treated and he gets the nod ahead of Zu Run, who bounced back from a couple of low-key efforts when third here three weeks ago Fools Rush In and H Key Lails are others with appealing claims
