Good early pressure for top spot with Rickey The King or National Mall likely to take up the running. NATIONAL MALL (5) is in fine form and hasn't missed the frame in his past nine starts. Last time out he scored over 2000m at Kawasaki. Looks very tough to beat again. RICKEY THE KING (8) showed good early speed and led throughout to score by 1.5 lengths last start over 1600m at this track. Will prove very tough to beat. REAL ME (7) looks close to a win, finishing in the placings at his last couple of runs including a second most recently over 1800m at this track when beaten a neck. Kota Motohashi stays on and although yet to win has been in the money on four occasions. Sure to be competitive. TIGER CHARGE (9) ran a better race last start, finishing 2.5 lengths away in fourth over 2000m at Ohi. Suitably placed so can turn things around.
