This tight-looking race poses an interesting puzzle but WELCOME BREEZE gets the vote. She should have more to offer with her low mileage and the form of a good effort last time has since been boosted. Romeo's Magic would be a threat if returning to form, this trip could be a bit far for Burmese Tiara, and course specialist Bloomington could feature.
