According to Wikipedia, Dusky-Capped is found on Trinidad only. There are also plenty of sightings in eBird on Trinidad, but I agree with Brown-crested.
 
Thanks.

Both Dusky - capped and Brown - crested are found in Trinidad, so based on the feedback I conclude that it is a Brown crested.

Regards
