Verdict

STATE CROWN is having a first run on a testing surface but Evan Williams’ four-year-old was just touched off in a Class 2 at Newcastle on his second outing over timber and would only need to run up to that form to make a winning start against older horses. A winner here last year, Bard Of Brittany could be a danger if fully wound-up ahead of his reappearance but San Pedro De Senam has an even longer absence to overcome. None of the others make much appeal on recent form.
