        Verdict

        This is a better quality affair, despite the small field, and Secret Liaision can follow up a last time out success, at the principal expense of Flying Bantam and Amy Louise. After winning at Southwell in February, Flying Bantam has won twice since, at Thirsk and Beverley. Those two wins have come on a faster surface however, and that and a five pound hike in the ratings may prove prohibitive. Amy Loise has won three of her last four starts, and is progressive. She goes best on an easy surface, and although her win at Thirsk was by only half a length, that race had a good look about it. She is partnered by her winning jockey that day, the excellent Kevin Darley, and off only a three pound higher mark, with any rain helping her cause, she can go close. Secret Liaision showed improved form to score at Kempton last time, after a disappointing re-appearance at Salisbury. The grey has won four of his last six starts, running up a hat-trick last season, and may still be leniently treated. Secret Liaision can come out into the open and lead them home here.
