Verdict

TOP OTHE RA looks the one to beat in this contest having shown more ability than any of his rivals to date. Madurai looks destined for better things at some stage while Abraham would be in with a shout if he can transfer all his ability from the Flat.
  1. Top Othe Ra
  2. Madurai
  3. Abraham
