NEBUCHADNEZZAR (12) pushed forward from a wide draw when when resuming from a break last time out and found the front, holding the lead for most of the way and sticking on well to finish second over 6f at Swan Hill. Will go forward again and looks tough to beat. BENRIACH (1) is a two-start maiden who was unplaced on debut then improved to finish third last time over 5f at Seymour, beaten half a length. Expected to go well again. WOLF CLUB (7) was well supported when resuming last start but missed the placings in fourth over 6f at Moe. Expected to feature in the finish. JOON HO (4) lines up for the first time since January 7. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 5½f at Bendigo. Comes here with definite top-three claims.
