HARBOUR VISION found only a gambled-on rival too good over C&D last week and Scott Dixon's veteran can notch a fifth course win. Girl From Italy was largely holding her form prior to Christmas and she's respected on her first start of the calendar year, whilst Breguet Boy produced an improved effort to win at Windsor in October and is also respected after a break.
