PARISLONGCHAMP HANDICAP 1200m

Track: GOOD      

Colourful Emperor should lead at a keen tempo. COLOURFUL EMPEROR (1) is in fine form of late, just missing out on the hat-trick last time out. Can press on to be prominent in the run and the claim of Chung comes in handy. He's an improving type who can get back onto the winners list in this event. MY FLYING ANGEL (11) just couldn't hold on at Sha Tin when leading them up over 1400m. Back to this trip may be a little niggle, but the visors go on and he he drops in weight. Big chance if he can run up to his latest effort. CALIFORNIA TOUCH (6) led all the way to score in easier company last time out, but he was competitive in this grade prior. Drawn ideally down low and he still has improvement to come just 13 starts into his career. Right in the mix on recent efforts. ACT OF FAITH (5) is never far away and is worth keeping on side.
