Verdict

ZOZIMUS has been shaping better than the result lately and, while he's not the easiest to win with, he may well find this panning out ideally with the pair drawn inside him likely to compete for the lead. Garden Oasis is a clear player if he can get the outright lead and Casilli is worthy of interest after a mildly encouraging return.
