SMILING COLLECTORThree weeks ago, this horse delivered a strong performance over Sha Tin's 1600m, jumping moderately and settling towards the back before accelerating in the final two sections with good speed. He finished sixth, beaten two and a half lengths. Now stepping up to Sha Tin’s 1800m for the first time, he has a one-pound weight reduction but this distance is not ideal. The tactics will likely be to settle towards the back, however, his finishing kick may not match rivals. Despite drawing an inside barrier and being prepared well, it's recommended to observe another run before assessing its chances.
