In depth

Verdict

TENFOLD is a bit exposed but was caught right on the line at Plumpton last time and forcing tactics can pay dividends around here. State Of Bliss won three times on the Flat for the Johnstons and looks the type to make hay under summer jumping conditions. Estacas was second to a subsequent winner in a Ludlow maiden last month and bumper winner Jack The Savage has hinted at ability so should also be pressing the places.
