Verdict

State Opera's stamina will have to be taken on trust but he did stay on well, despite making most of the running, when tried over 1m4f at Newbury last time. Fellow three-year-old Defence Of Duress has only found one too good over this trip on his last two starts at Newcastle and Ripon but several of his older rivals in this are starting to look well handicapped again. DAZZLING LIGHT falls into that category and gets a tentative vote as he's only a couple of pounds higher than when going close over 1m4f in a much better race over 1m4f here last August. Bollin Greta, Lady Chaparral and Mason Hindmarsh are others to consider in an open race.
