A wide open contest rounds off the card and many would have chances on their best form but the principals look to be Element of Truth, Clinet and Nufoos and the narrow vote is given to Element Of Truth. The selection was a good third behind Nufoos last time out but on these revised terms she is weighted to gain her revenge on that rival. She also has conditions to suit so should prove hard to beat. Clinet rates the main danger on her latest second behind Tahrir, especially as this return to the longer trip looks in her favour. Nufoos is sure to have her supporters but looks opposable off this higher mark. Discuss is another with place claims on her latest second behind Summitville but her best form is with much more cut in the ground and she looks worth taking on. Of the remainder, Favourita is game and consistent and is sure to run her race but the return to this trip on faster ground looks against her. Royal Alchemist is from a yard in top form and could go well at a price but for the winner we return to Element Of Truth.
