Here Comes Johnny, Magnus The Good and Atlantic Pearl to take up the running at a strong tempo. MAGNUS THE GOOD (1) followed an unplaced effort first-up two runs back with a second last start over 1000m at this track after being prominent at the corner. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. HERE COMES JOHNNY (2) recorded another minor placing last time out, finishing 2.5 lengths away in third over 1200m at this track. Finds a suitable race and can figure in the finish. ATLANTIC PEARL (12) has registered two minor placings from three runs this campaign. 2.25 lengths from the winner in second last time out over 1200m at this track. Must be included on the strength of that form. WARRIOR'S SWORD (4) finished third at Fairview All Weather two runs back but was less effective last time over 1200m at this track, finishing 7 lengths back in sixth. Best figures measure up nicely. Solid top-three prospects.
