What to say instead of "Please find attached"
It's stiff, dated business-letter language that signals a mail-merge. In cold email, attachments themselves hurt deliverability and trip spam filters, and the phrase tells the reader nothing about why the file is worth opening. It describes the mechanics instead of selling the value.

When to use it
Use whenever you'd point someone to a file. Prefer an inline summary or a tracked link over a literal attachment, and lead with the payoff (what they'll learn) rather than the act of attaching.
