The market should prove highly informative here but the vote goes to Charlie Appleby's WORDS OF TRUTH who catches the eye on pedigree and represents a top yard. Both Humidity and Cape Orator also hail from good yards and appeal on paper so could emerge as the main threats. Lohoobb, Morris Dancer and Domination are others to consider in an intriguing juvenile maiden.
