Hmm....one thing you could try is to put your right hand down (including the RH C key) on the Bb, add the LH C key right after you cross the break (so you're playing the C with both pinkies) and then lift the RH pinky up right before the Eb to transfer it to the Eb key.

It's a little more complicated than simply playing it on the left, but it might turn out to be smoother.

The other thing I would definitely do is to try to think "crescendo" as you go up. If you back off on the air as you cross the break the resistance change will cause you problems. So you need a little more air on the Bb than normal to make the transition.
