Finished tailed off at Turffontein over 1m (maiden plate) last month; yet to get off the mark in seven attempts (fourth his best finish); passed over as this is a fairly competitive event.

Yet to open his account after 26 starts; behind Mega Awesome over 7½f here (maiden plate) when beaten 15l (eighth of nine) 14 days ago; stable has been going through a quiet spell; probably unlikely to trouble the principals as a few rivals look in good form.

Career is progressing; gave it a good shot when a close third; closely matched with Campo Formio on that running (Turffontein) last month in a maiden juvenile plate; could go close.

Not beaten that far in fifth (just under 5l) here over 7½f (maiden plate) last month; booking of Callan Murray takes the eye.

Not disgraced in seventh over 7f at Turffontein (maiden plate) 28 days ago; finished ahead of Mega Awesome but was behind Wartrax Blaze; has shown some ability on occasion and should not be ruled out.

Produced an encouraging effort (third of 12, beaten 1½l) over 7f at Turffontein (maiden plate) last month; best form so far in last two starts; if she can build on her latest effort then capable of going well.

Verdict
There is a question mark over whether One State will be effective over this trip but NOBLE CHIEFDOM rates a strong recommendation. Elisa Mbali is a credible contender, and Sword Of Light should be looked at.
