Verdict

Chez Hans has won his last five, four of them around here, but might meet his match today in the shape of the equally in-form SOLSTALLA. Having rattled up a hat-trick previously, David Weston’s mare produced another excellent performance in this grade at Worcester last time when racing from out of the handicap. Blakeney Point’s Perth win was franked when the runner-up was just touched off at Cartmel on Saturday but the four-year-old State Crown looks up against it.
