BROUGHTONS RHYTHM and Graasten hold the most solid claims on the evidence available and, given that the former is likely to encounter more suitable ground, he just edges the vote as the one to be on. Richard Johnson is an obvious boost to his claims. Zenafire is one that can improve as he gains in experience and is one to view with an eye on the future.
