Expecting Mr Tadashi to take up the running with Hells Spirit and County Kilkenny close at hand. MR TADASHI (3) failed to live up to market expectation here last start on a heavy track. Should find some firmer footing this time and meets County Kilkenny 2.5kgs better. A return to form can see him turn the tables. COUNTY KILKENNY (1) has raced himself back into form since being being ridden positive. Goes up in the weights, so will have to find a bit more to bring up the hat-trick but is full of confidence and can't be taken lightly. HELLS SPIRIT (2) found it a bit too rich last start at Caulfield and will appreciate the drop in grade. Expect him to hunt the front and give a bold sight. VALENTINE JOHN (4) gets a big drop in weight after placing at Grafton over 3120m and is track and trip winner. One of the winning hopes. IT IS TO BE (6) is going better than his form reads and holds claims down in the weights. Not dismissing. SUGGESTED PLAY: Mr Tadashi to bounce back.
