Verdict
Oakidoaki has placed twice at Huntingdon this year but doesn’t always find much when push comes to shove. STATE THE OBVIOUS made late headway over 2m5f at Ffos Las and will be suited by the step up in trip on just his third start over fences. Kelso runner-up Classical Milano is not out of this, despite top weight, while Golans Choice only found one too good back under Rules at Fakenham, though was beaten 11 lengths. Psychocandy will probably be thereabouts again and Sissinghurst is probably well handicapped if he ever gets his act together over fences.
