Verdict

Many of these would have a chance on their best form and so a tentative vote is given to King's Quay, Kadount and The Duke's Speech are two of many dangers. The selection appears to have the best recent form having chased home Forthright in a valuable race here last time out. He holds his form particularly well and looks the safest option this afternoon. Kadount is a strange old character but had plenty of ability when with Alan King. Lennie Lungo is just the man to rejuvenate him and it would be no surprise to see this one involved in the finish. The Dukes Speech hasn't really lived up to his early reputation but is another that could suddenly turn in a good display. Bugus Dreams doesn't have too much to find on book and may be the best of the others, however Kings Quay is at the top of his game and he just gets the verdict.
