A fiercely competitive closing contest in which it could be worth taking a chance on SWEET REWARD, who wasn't disgraced over C&D on final outing last season and begins this campaign from an attractive mark (finished second in this last year from same mark). Metallo has race-fitness on his side, so he heads up the dangers back on turf for the first time since his juvenile days, with Lone Piper and Great Chieftain just a couple of others to consider, too.
