Having her third start in Australia for Chris Waller, Hometruths (GB) was ready to fire and surged around the field to win the 2100m Benchmark 78 event running away by three lengths.

A two time winner in France and fourth in the Group III Saint-Cloud Prix Cleopatre, Hometruths looks certain to measure up to Black Type races judging by this eye-catching victory.
