Verdict

COLLECTIVE POWER wasn't able to get to grips with Tawaazon over 6f here a fortnight ago but now meets that rival on 8 lb better terms (without taking James Ryan's claim into account) and the likely red-hot pace back at 5f will represent the perfect scenario for Edward Lynam's charge. Tawaazon very much had the run of the race that day but that is unlikely to be the case this time with fellow recent winners Tai Sing Yeh and Dun Na Sead (feared most in that order of preference) in opposition.
