        Verdict

        Contentious gets the confident vote in the finale with Scarlett Heart and Cosmic Destiny rating the main dangers. The selection has won her last two races in good style notably when beating Cosmic Destiny with a little in hand. Granted she is rising in the weights but she again has conditions to suit, and will be hard to beat. Scarlett Heart rates the main danger on her latest second behind Drifting Gold but she has been done no favours by the draw. Cosmic Destiny is sure to have her supporters on the revised terms with Contentious but this hold up performer will need plenty of luck in running. Matterofact will like conditions but she looks weighted up to her best. Of the remainder, Fly Time is sure to run her race but remains a maiden after 21 starts while Minnow is from a shrewd yard and should be watched in the market, but the progressive Contentious looks the one to be on.
