Verdict
STATE OF BLISS (NAP) is having his sights lowered and the three-times Flat winner can make it fourth-time lucky over timber. Sir Canford, who represents last year’s winning stable, has a very long absence to overcome while Book of Secrets was beaten in a seller at Stratford so Huntingdon third Thorpeness looks the danger. Smart Deal was entered in the 8.55 Stratford last night.
