King's Code^b¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: N Callan| T: P D Evans| OR: 98| D

2/1

Landed London Middle Distance Series Final handicap at Kempton and improved again (making it 3 wins in 4 starts) when winning a relatively valuable handicap at Chelmsford City (10f) 18 days ago (Whitcombe Rockstar back in third). 4 lb higher for hat-trick bid but clearly thriving.

Storm Catcher^p¹⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 9-4| J: J Mitchell| T: S Pearce| OR: 93| CD

12/1

C&D winner. Latest win at Chelmsford City in August. but ran no sort of race when 22½ lengths last of 13 to King's Code in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f, 25/1) 18 days ago. Bit to prove on the back of that effort.

Duke's Command¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Billy Loughnane| T: D O'Meara| OR: 92

3/1

Well-bred sort (dam sister to Oaks winner Minding) arrives in fine heart, finishing respectable fourth of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (8f) 18 days ago. Unexposed over middle distances and looks interesting stepping back up in trip.

Have Secret^v⁴¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: Warren Fentiman⁽⁵⁾| T: R A Fahey| OR: 91| D

9/1

Runner-up in a useful handicap at Doncaster prior to capitalising on drop in grade when winning 9-runner handicap (15/2) at Redcar (10f, good) 41 days ago. Having rare start on all-weather but should remain competitive off 3 lb higher if he can translate his turf form.

Whitcombe Rockstar^t,p1¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 8-13| J: Josephine Gordon| T: Kieran Burke| OR: 88| D

3/1

Prolific winner last year (5-times at Kempton). Not seen to best effect of late, hung left when third behind King's Code in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f) 18 days ago and looks well-treated if first-time cheekpieces have the desired effect.

My Fermoy¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-5| J: Saffie Osborne| T: D J Coakley| OR: 80

15/2

Steadily progressive in maidens (runner-up to a fairly useful sort at Nottingham) and didn't need to improve when off the mark with ease at Southwell (8.1f). Pedigree offers some hope he'll stay this longer trip and shouldn't be overlooked from 2 lb out the weights on handicap bow.

Forecasts

King's Code (2/1), Hard Endeavor (9/4), Duke's Command (3/1), Whitcombe Rockstar (3/1), My Fermoy (15/2), Have Secret (9/1), Storm Catcher (12/1)

Well-bred DUKE'S COMMAND is unexposed over this sort of distance and he gets the vote in a competitive finale. Whitcombe Rockstar is well-treated if first time cheekpieces have the desired effect, while both 3-y-o handicap debutants make appeal, particularly Hard Endeavour, who has some handy form in turf maidens earlier this year.
