Librisa Breeze finished in front of 2014 winner Breton Rock and Sir Dancealot when runner-up in last year’s renewal. But the latter arrives in the form of his life having overcome trouble in-running to land the Lennox Stakes at Goodwood and beating Breton Rock in the process. David Elsworth’s charge is fancied to come out best of that pair again but GUSTAV KLIMT (NAP) makes most appeal. Aidan O’Brien’s charge has been competing at the highest level over a mile and, if reproducing his second in the St James’s Palace Stakes at Ascot, he should take the beating in this. The admirably consistent Yafta beat Dream Of Dreams in a Group 3 sprint here last month and is also preferred to Dan's Dream and Tomyris.
