    Verdict

    Third Strike was a winner without a penalty at Chelmsford last time and duly landed a hat-trick. But he has a 7lb rise to contend with here while Attain returned the 33/1 winner at Lingfield in February and is 6lb worse off with the runner-up UNDERSTORY. The latter is a three-time course and distance winner and back on a winning mark. Sexy Secret is usually thereabouts without being good enough and it could be a similar story today while Perseverent Pete was still beaten a long way despite finishing second at Chelmsford on his latest start.
