Poor run again on AW when well beaten in a handicap here latest. Effective at 6/7f and may not get further; disappointing in both AW starts. May keep a bit back and could have needed the reappearance, but has a bit to prove.

Out-kicked and might have wanted further when fourth, beaten 7l in a handicap here latest. Probably wants 1m+; yet to show much ability but moves like longer trips will suit.

Verdict
The application of a first-time visor coupled with a switch to handicaps worked the oracle for SILVER STATE, who kicked clear of his rivals to record a cosy success at Wolverhampton. Jack Channon's gelding was raised 7lb for that but, like a few of these, he's open to plenty of improvement. Fickle Mcselfish was lacking a gear or two over 7f here latest and could find some progress over the extra furlong, while Popty Ping appeals most of the remainder.
Expert View Verdict
SILVER STATE benefitted from the addition of a visor last time and could defy a 7lb rise in the retained headgear with this track likely to suit over the slightly shorter trip. Recent 7f winner Popty Ping has held her form well in defeat since and her last run is worth marking up as she was forced wide being left with too much to do. She is unlikely to find trouble here and can throw down the main challenge ahead of Fickle Mcselfish was shaped as if in need of this step up in trip here last time.
