From their wide draws Metal Speed and Straight Talker can establish a strong tempo. HISHI AMAN (7) came from a long way back on the corner and was not too far away when resuming last start over 1600m at Tokyo. Has won two from two when second-up. Will certainly pay to follow. CAUGHT ALLICIANT (10) made considerable ground in the run home to finish second last start over 1600m at this track. Expected to be there at the business end once again. MATENRO BRAVO (6) won at this track and distance at his last outing nine weeks ago. Strong fresh performer who is a definite top-three chance. STRAIGHT TALKER (13) did a great job to score by a head over this course and distance last time out to build on a solid first-up effort. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot repeat the dose.
