Umm.. I'm doing that one as well currently.
See that piece does have repeats, so you just need to nail the first part with the modulation, then the second part with the march-like feel, and the third one with the thrilll.
I read what somebody said, that you should go slow to make the rhythm and dynamics and articulation perfect.
And have fun!
