        Verdict

        Four of these have a handicap mark and Kingofmerrows is the pick of that quartet but hasn’t raced since last December. Decision Maker is rated 7lb lower but has the more recent form having chased home Envisaging here earlier in the month when Limoncino was third. BEQUIA is bred to be better than she’s shown so far and it would be no surprise if she left previous form behind now with David O’Meara and running on an artificial surface. Danny Tudhope prefers her to Captain Bond.
