Verdict

Breathalyze has a first and second to his name from two runs over track and trip and there is no reason why he won’t go close again as he easily beat subsequent winners Cognac and The New Marwan in the first of those. WILD HERO is the only maiden in this small field but that means he gets 6lb and he has shown promise in both starts. He wasn’t unduly punished last time at Epsom and looks the type to keep on improving as he gains experience.
