Divine Spirit gets the confident vote in the finale with Compton Classic and Maromito rating the main dangers. The selection was a fair second behind Compton Classic last time out he is weighted to gain his revenge on that rival here and from a good draw he looks the one to be on. Compton Classic is sure to run his race but he looks vulnerable under his penalty. Maromito is another that could go wellon his latest second behind Arfinit but he looks sure to be taken on for the lead and he is opposed with this in mind. Hotham was an unlucky in running last time out and if he ghets the breaks hwe cdould go well at a price while No Time. would not want any more rain and with this in mind for the winner we return to Dive Spirit who has plenty of ticks in the right boxes.
