Verdict

LIGHTNING ATTACK was in good form in the spring and it may be worth risking that he is ready to roll having a first run for new connections. Man Of The Sea has done most of his winning on Jersey but did score at Stratford last month under Thomasina Eyston. Gerard Mentor won at Warwick last month, when Begin The Luck was only sixth, but was only fourth here 12 days later, though is reunited with Kai Lenihan...
