      In depth

      Verdict

      Somewhere Secret will enjoy conditions and should make a bold bid, despite top weight, but the two three-year-olds are preferred. AUTUMN FLIGHT won over track and trip on soft going last year and was touched off over 6f here last time so gets the vote ahead of Popping Corks, who is penalised for winning over track and trip eight days ago. Harrison Shaw is good value for his 3lb claim on the latter, however, so Linda Perratt’s filly should go close again. Groundworker likes it here and Marietta Robusti has been in decent form lately so they make more appeal than veteran I'll Be Good.
