Verdict
A number of these have been knocking on the door of late and the likes of Bath second Stoneham, close-up Doncaster third McCarthy Mor and Newcastle runner-up Green Zone all merit close inspection again. Sexy Secret wasn't beaten far behind STRIKE A LIGHT over 7f here 11 days ago and is a couple of pounds better off but Rae Guest's filly was well backed that day and gave the impression she had a bit more in the locker if required. She is lightly-raced and can follow up in this. Kempton winner Plucky Dip failed narrowly to follow up at Bath two weeks ago but has been raised a further 4lb since.
