God's Gate and Sunbronzed can be prominent. COSTAZITA (4) ran on from midfield but couldn't reel in the smart winner first-up, beaten 0.8L. He was off a long break there and looks back to his old self. His prior figures are right in his wheelhouse now second-up and out in trip and if he can get to that number, he'll be hard to hold out. PLATINUM SHOT (3) is racing in top order, beaten 2.2L at Belmont last start when getting a long way back in the run. Likely to be back again but showed what she can do in her runs prior. Expecting her to bounce back to her best. CLOSE TALKER (7) flew home from last but has already missed the boat beaten 1.9L at Belmont. Now draws inside for the first time this campaign and that should see him within striking distance on the turn. Ready to strike now third-up. GOD'S GATE (13) is better than he showed first-up at Ascot and is right in the mix. SUNBRONZED (6) can build on the solid effort first-up. SUGGESTED PLAY: Costazita can get back to winning ways.
