The Final Word has good early speed and can set a decent tempo. WINE BARRON (3) is an SA galloper who got off the mark two back then wasn't far away in richer company last time. Three weeks between runs and well back in trip but looks hard to beat this company. VIERI (7) returns from a break and looks a top chance fresh. Has placed 2/2 when fresh and boasts a strong record this course and distance. Go close. Stablemate REMATCH (1) is a former Sydney galloper who could well be too good this company. Goes well fresh and looks well placed if handles the dirt. KING AKEED (8) returned from a break with a strong win. This is tougher but fitter and drops in weight. SHISUTA BO (5) has switched yards since a fresh-up fifth at Port Augusta and rates highly here on best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen on Wine Barron
