Verdict

KOTARE RIMU (3) has been hard to fault of late and he made it two in a row when successful at his latest appearance over 1 ³/16m at this track, getting home by 1.5 metres. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Meets a similar line up and he is all set to make it a hat-trick. BEACHBREAK (5) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 4 metres from the winner in fifth over 1 ³/16m at this track. Steps up a level but he is capable of running another bold race. SEASIDE BRUCIE (1) is on the radar after his last-start fifth over 1 ³/16m at this track a week ago. I'M ROCKIN (2) should not have any excuses from the favourable draw.
