Majestic⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 10-2| J: David Probert| T: J Channon| OR: 87| D

6/1

Winless since landing Cambridgeshire in 2022 but plenty of creditable efforts to his name, including when third at Newmarket (10f) this summer. Not seen to best effect having raced near side when midfield in aforementioned race 7 weeks ago. Respected on tapeta debut.

Form: 83370V

Koy Koy^t⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-1| J: Grace McEntee⁽³⁾| T: G Boughey| OR: 86| CD

12/1

Course winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2023. 6/1, creditable fifth of 9 in handicap at Chelmsford City (1m) 9 days ago. Mark has eased a little more now returned to scene of his last success.

Asgard's Captain¹⁴³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: Kyle Strydom| T: Dylan Cunha| OR: 83| CD

14/1

C&D winner. 4 wins from 11 runs this year. 9/1, eighth of 12 in handicap at Carlisle (11.2f, good to firm), merely closing up late. Seemingly freshened up with an all-weather campaign in mind and interesting if the market spoke in his favour back from 5 months off.

Form: 182538

Timeless Charm²³⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: Billy Loughnane| T: G Boughey| OR: 85

11/2

Bright start to career last winter, successful on debut at Kempton (1m) prior to a good second under a penalty over 8.6f here 12 months ago. Absent since finishing fifth of 8 on handicap at Doncaster (10.2f) in March and she's not one to write off given her low-mileage profile.

Form: 12-5

(3)

Son Of Man³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: S D Bowen⁽³⁾| T: J R Boyle| OR: 85

17/2

Stepped up markedly on his reappearance effort when runner-up over 7f here in June. However, not scaled same heights since, including in 3 starts for this yard, sixth of 8 in handicap at Goodwood (1m, heavy) 34 days ago. Eased markedly in class for tapeta debut.

King's Code²⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: Jordan Williams⁽⁵⁾| T: P D Evans| OR: 81| CD

16/5

C&D winner who caught the eye having been left poorly placed when fifth at Kempton on penultimate start and best excused his latest sixth of 7 in handicap at Bath (10.2f, heavy) 26 days ago. Intriguing contender back on this surface having eased further in the weights.

Form: 890856

War Chant¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: H Crouch| T: Rae Guest| OR: 80| CD

4/1

Course winner. 7/2, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Chelmsford City (10f) 16 days ago, having run of race. Likeable sort but more needed in all likelihood if he's to follow up from 4 lb higher.

Form: 136181

He's A Gentleman^v³⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Joe Leavy⁽³⁾| T: H Palmer| OR: 78| CD

14/1

Course winner. Latest win at Ayr (7.2f) in July. Ninth of 13 in handicap at Chelmsford (1m) 35 days ago. Not the easiest to assess on balance of this season's efforts.

Form: 721029

Giselles Defence¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Charles Bishop| T: Ian Williams| OR: 76

66/1

3 wins from 11 runs this year. Latest win at Newbury in July. 50/1, sixth of 7 in handicap at Catterick (12.1f, heavy) 18 days ago, always behind. Back down in trip. Makes tapeta debut.

Form: 121056

Golden Sands^h,p⁴⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: Marco Ghiani| T: M Appleby| OR: 76| CD

18/1

Course winner. Respectable seventh of 14 in handicap (33/1) at Kempton (8f) 45 days ago, doing too much too soon. Steadily coming back down to a workable mark but he'll need to settle better over the longest trip he's faced here.

Form: 20-0877

Master Of Combat⁴⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: T E Whelan| T: K Frost| OR: 76| CD

20/1

4-time course winner who capitalised on falling mark to win 12-runner handicap (8/1) at this course (8.6f) 47 days ago. Equally as effective at this longer trip and he remains with handicapping scope judged on his exploits last winter. Possibilities.

Form: 308881

Life On The Rocks⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 8-10| J: J Fanning| T: R A Fahey| OR: 67

28/1

4 wins from 15 runs this year. Latest win at Windsor in August. Bit below form sixth of 10 in handicap at Newcastle (10.2f, 11/2) 8 days ago, weakening final 1f having made the running. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Form: 433196

Forecasts

King's Code (16/5), War Chant (4/1), Timeless Charm (11/2), Majestic (6/1), Son Of Man (17/2), Koy Koy (12/1), Asgard's Captain (14/1), He's A Gentleman (14/1), Golden Sands (18/1), Master Of Combat (20/1), Life On The Rocks (28/1), Giselles Defence (66/1)

KING'S CODE needs to dispel a lesser effort at Bath on his latest outing, yet he'd previously highlighted he could be ready to strike when fifth at Kempton previously and, lurking on a very handy mark, he could be ready to strike. Recent course winner Master of Combat, Majestic and Timeless Charm are others to bear in mind, as is likeable 4-y-o War Chant.
