A wide open contest rounds off the card and there is very little between many of the leading lights but the principals look to be Cosmic Destiny Harrison's Flyer and Thoughtsofstardom and the narrow vote is given to Cosmic Destiny. The selection won with plenty in hand when beating Thoughtsofstardom last time out and although that rival is better off at the weights here the selection is taken to confirm his superiority over them. Harrison's Flyer rates the main danger but he just gave the impression that the handicapper had caught up with him when second behind Knead The Dough last time out and he is taken on with this in mind. Thoughtsofstardom is sure to have his supporters on these revised terms but he our opinion he still has a little to find. Of the remainder Scarlett Heart is game and consistent and is sure to run her race but looks weighted up to her best while Rosie Cross is from a yard in form and is unexposed so could improve but for the winner we are happy to return to Cosmic Destiny who looked progressive last time out.
