Racing Post verdict
Third-partySpoken Truth has racked up four places in a row without quite getting his head in front, and his latest effort reads even better than the bare result after he ran into interference at a crucial point. Ten furlongs on today's good to firm ground both suit, and a favourable weight allotment adds to the case for him finally turning one of those places into a win. The chief dangers come from Theory Of Tides, who was progressing nicely before a long spell off the track, and last year's winner Flying Frontier, another who lost his passage last time but boasts a fine record around this course; Stem also keeps performing with credit without quite getting up. On balance, Spoken Truth remains our selection to finally break his duck.
