There's no recent winning form to consider, although CASCADIA was placed over course and distance last time. Karl Burke's filly never threatened the winner but may have enough to land a poor handicap such as this. Bold Max has made the frame over 6f here and Needs The Run went close over 1m2f at Lingfield last week. Definite Secret has had plenty of chances without looking like winning so far and steps up in trip for this, while Ayr winner Marlismamma was practically tailed off on her reappearance and first start on Fibresand.
