PHILIP WOO’S FORMLINE

Honest performer Reward Smile should naturally be fitter after finding the line well for fifth at Sha Tin and fourth at the Valley following a lameness issue in May. Sovereign Fund comes off a seventh on his local debut 13 days ago and should appreciate the extra 200m based on his overseas form. Silo showed very good form to win four of eight starts in Singapore and has gone well in each of his three trials. Phoenix Light swooped to win on a wet track at this level in April for a second C&D win before running on without threatening in two of three starts. He remains a place roughie.

TROUBLE IN RUNNING
