        Verdict

        Speculator ran his best race so far at Salisbury last month but Western Playboy is proving difficult to place and may be more effective on the all-weather. OCEAN CRYSTAL may be ready to win again after running behind the likes of Medicean Melody, Welsh Inlet and Juventas who all race earlier on this evening's card. Goodwood third Chetan is preferred to Excelling Oscar and My Mo of the others.
