Solid tempo with Rock My Boat, Itsnowornever and Circle Of Grace going hard, closely attended by Ehhfifteenkjoe. ROCK MY BOAT (1) was an impressive maiden winner last time out, scoring by 1.5 lengths over 1600m at Turffontein Standside. Winning rider Marco V'rensburg stays aboard and he looks certain to measure up again. NORTHERN KITTEN (2) finished 5.5 lengths away in fifth last time out over 1600m at this track three weeks ago. Steps up in distance today. Should be prominent from the outset. Sure to be in the finish. CREPUSCOLO (5) finished third last start at the first run back from a spell over 2000m at this track, beaten 4.5 lengths. In the right race and is a key runner. ITSNOWORNEVER (3) was responsible for a better run last start, beaten 4 lengths into fifth over 1600m at Turffontein Inside. Has his share of ability and is a top-three prospect.
