Rapunzel Moon and Techno Express to take up the running at a strong tempo. RAPUNZEL MOON (1) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid third at this track over 1400m after being prominent from the outset. Drawn to go forward. Finds a suitable race and can go on to take this out. URBAN KING (9) is yet to break through in 18 runs. Finished fifth after being in the firing line on the bend at his last appearance over 1400m at this track on May 20. This offers him a great chance of breaking through. TECHNO EXPRESS (5) did little and finished 10 lengths from the winner in seventh over 820m at this track last start, a less impressive effort than his fourth at this track the run before. Worth noting Tomohiro Yoshimura goes aboard. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. JEWEL DE PARIS (8) failed to figure again last time over 1400m at this track, beaten 7 lengths into fifth. Backmarker who gets home hard. Will be doing his best work late.
