Genuine tempo with the speedy Hakusan Hanabi leading the way. HAKUSAN HANABI (4) is a talented galloper who is unbeaten in two runs this time in, the latest at this track over 1400m. Justified the strong support last time and is expected to be in the finish again. COASTAL TERRACE (8) doesn't win very often but ran a strong race last time out over 1400m at this track, finishing second and beaten a neck after being in the firing line on the turn. Nicely placed to take this out. NEVER LET YOU GO (6) turned in a fine effort to score by one length at this course and distance when first-up from a break last start. Looks well placed so expect another big run. RISE TAIGA (2) was prominent at the bend and finished second last start over 1500m at this track, beaten 5 lengths. Has started six times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Hard to beat in this suitable race.
