Barmera should spear straight to the front of the small field. CHARTWELL (3) got the job done around this circuit last time out when heavily supported and is sure to have derived a stack of confidence from that victory. Can continue the winning form. BARMERA (1) has a handy record here with a win and four seconds from just six starts and rarely puts in a poor one. Best figures measure up. BETTER THAN WORDS (4) didn't feature in much stronger company at the latest effort but the form prior was good enough to play a role in a race like this. Worth another chance. HANGIN' AROUND (2) has placed two from two over this course and distance and will be at peak fitness now from the inside alley. Don't discount lightly. TIME TO PROPHET (5) rounds out the selections. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 3,1,4,2.
