      Verdict

      There are doubts about the majority of the field here and High Policy is only a tentative selection in the hope that he runs up to something like his best. Inver Gold and the Strictly Speaking are others to consider if supported. However, High Policy has some useful form to his name over course and distance and has fewer questions to answer than the rest. Inver Gold does have a little to prove at the weights but is preferred over Strictly Speaking to chase the selection home. King Priam is also capable if he is on a going day but lacks the consistency of High Policy so is best restricted to each way bets only.
