Nothing but a winner

A happy group of owners at Geelong today with Nothingbutthetruth breaking through for his first Australian success.
Last in the winners circle at Matamata in October, the five-year-old was not far away in five runs during his first Victorian campaign and on Friday was having only his third run this time in.
Appreciating the step up to 2000m, the son of Galileo was always travelling well mid-field, pulling out wide at the turn and quickly sweeping to the front.
A little too easily maybe - Nothingbutthetruth putting an easy length or so on his rivals but then pricking is ears and waiting for this rivals to catch up - digging deep when they neared him.
"He is a bit of a thinker!" said jockey Mark Zahra, "I think he'd be better ridden cold with something to chase."

Picked up by Paul Moroney at the Easter sale for just $30,000, Nothingbutthetruth is one of seven winners produced by the Secretariat mare Secret Truth, also dam of the South American stakes placegetter Pleasure Secret and winners in Hong Kong, Canada, South Africa, America, New Zealand and Australia.
Secret Truth's dam is the US Gr.2 winner Truly Bound, daughter of the dual Gr.1 winner Natashka and further back this is the family of the influential stallions Mr Prospector and Seattle Slew.
