OOPS! Yes there are-

kalà:s hó:ra:s, which would be kálais ó:rais in Aeolic (Doric sometimes
has the n > i soundchange too, Aeolic ALWAYS has it)... also Aeolic has
no spiritus asper. I totally forgot to mention that.... There ARE in
fact no <h>s in your transcription, but I'm assuming that you just
ommitted them, because I've convinced myself that this is Doric ;)

ps. now the next question is what KIND of Doric is this? ;)
