Forecasts

Notable Speech (6/4), Rosallion (5/2), Henry Longfellow (11/2), Alyanaabi (10/1), Almaqam (14/1), Metropolitan (20/1), Unquestionable (28/1), Darlinghurst (40/1)

Verdict

NOTABLE SPEECH looks to have all the attributes of a top-class miler, possessing both a high cruising speed and a sharp turn of foot, and can confirm his Newmarket 2000 Guineas superiority over Rosallion, who has gone on to win the Irish version. Almaqam was good in the Heron Stakes at Sandown and may prove best of the rest.

  1. NOTABLE SPEECH
  2. ROSALLION (IRE)
  3. ALMAQAM
