BREEZE OVER (8) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 1m6 1/4f at this track, beaten 5 lengths. Goes up a rung or two but he is fitter and capable of running a bold race. UNITED COUNCIL (6) made progress last time out, finishing 2.75 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1m6 1/4f at this track. Meets some better types this time but another big run will not surprise. Group 1 placegetter ZEUS (1) finished 9 lengths away in eighth last time out over 1m2f at this track three weeks ago. Steps up in journey. Change of jockey to Gavin Lerena who has a strong record when aboard, including 10 wins. Should be involved in the finish. Group 1 placegetter CRIMSON KING (3) won at this track two starts ago but was below his best at a more recent appearance, finishing sixth over 1m6 1/4f at this track. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time.
