Genuine tempo with Become King leading the way. COSMO SANVITALIA (1) was in contention all the way and finished a very close second last start over 1400m at this track to make it seven minor placings in a row. Drawn to stalk the leaders. Overdue and gets chance. EIYU MAX (4) stalked the pace when resuming at this track and trip last start then worked to the line steadily to finish second. Sure to run well again. BECOME KING (5) was well in the market when resuming last start but failed to threaten when a disappointing fifth at this track over 1400m. Has a win and two minor placings from four starts at this track and distance. Will strip fitter and can feature in the finish. OSUMI STRONG (3) was in contention on the corner and finished third last start over 1400m at this track. In the mix.
