Verdict

TOPHUT JOHNY (3) scored last time out by 2 metres in a nice return to form at Kilmore over 1 5/16m. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Meets a comparable field and he can go right on with the job. EASTBRO MIKA (4) ran third last start at Terang over 1 5/16m, beaten 6 metres. Capable of playing a major role so has to be respected. HAVADASH JOH (1) is on the radar after his last-start fourth over 1 m at Terang eight days ago. KIMCHI (5) is worth some thought after his last-start fifth over 1 ?m at Ballarat on September 2.
