REVIVE MAILLARD (12) scored at this track last time out with half a length in reserve at the end of 1600m. Yet to miss the frame in two starts over this course and distance. Should park just off the speed. Will give a great sight. ROAD OF KING (3) turned in a fine effort to win by 0.8 lengths at this course and distance last start in a nice progression on the first-up performance. This looks a sterner test than last time but on his best form he is good enough to cope. SHARK WARNING (13) wound up strongly last time out to finish 1.5 lengths adrift in third over 2000m at this track. Haruto Nakayama who has three wins when partnering stays on. Has claims on his best figures. MEISHO SUEHIRO (7) produced a good run two starts back to finish second but failed to live up to market expectations last time when out of the placings at this track over the same trip. Nicely placed to turn things around.
