        Verdict

        Strike Force continues to run well without winning and will probably make the frame once again. Bath winner Sunset Place also has claims on his best form, but the lack of a recent outing counts against him, while Kames Park is still capable of popping up in one these contests if things go his way. However, a chance is taken that THUNDERING HOME can hold his form after scoring over today's trip at Wolverhampton last month. George Baker's gelding rates the selection just ahead of unexposed The Holyman, who tries today's longer distance for the first time.
