Race Tip

ROCKABOTTLE (3) broke through for his maiden win over 5½f at Sale last time, scoring comfortably. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Looks well placed and he can go on with it. DESERT STAR (1) resumed from a lay-off last start with a close second over 6½f at Cranbourne. Tackles a synthetic track for the first time. Solid credentials. I'M DYNAMITE (13) got the prize two runs ago at Sale. Not as effective last time out when fifth over 7f at Sale, beaten 4 lengths. The engagement of Teodore Nugent is a positive move. Likely improver with strong prospects. HOT PURSUIT (8) broke her maiden last start over 7½f at Cranbourne, scoring by 1.5 lengths. This is tougher but she is capable of another big run.
