      Verdict

      Piccolomini,Smooth Jazz and Mount Usher look the three to concentrate on in the finale and the confident vote is given to Piccolomini. The selection was a good second on his debut this season behind Tiltat, he is sure to have come on for the run will be suited by this slightly shorter trip and from what looks a good draw he will be hard to beat. Smooth Jazz rates the main danger as he was caught on there line by Bronwen last time that form has since been franked and he should be closely monitored in the market. Mount Usher is another worthy of respect on his staying on third behind Wiliam Tel but he looks the type that will do better in nurserys and for that reason he is opposed. Of the remainder Renada is a well bred sort from a shrewd yard and should be noted in the market but may just come on for the experience and for the winner we return to Piccolomini.
