ALLGOOD VINNIE (7) is racing very well with seconds at all three starts since coming from the back row to win at Kilmore. Draws wider than when beaten 3.4 metres at Melton last time but races well at this distance. This is winnable with even luck. ARE WEASLEY (8) was in the money at Cranbourne two runs ago before finishing second again at his latest appearance at Charlton, beaten 3.4 metres. Gets a soft run on the inside of the second line and if he gets the gaps he can play a big role. TOPHUT JOHNY (9) was a Kilmore winner last month and was good again when third at Cranbourne last time out. Draws on the back row but owns a good record at this circuit and distance. HOME AND DRY (5) is in the mix if he can recapture the form from two starts back that saw him score at Bendigo.
