Verdict

The series final can go the way of SECRET HANDSHEIKH, who made it 2 wins from his last 3 starts with a commanding success here earlier in the month. He is taken to land a sixth course victory, with the hat-trick-seeking Arnaz feared most from what remains a workable mark. Twirler and Diomed Spirit complete the shortlist.

6	Off the mark for the year at Chepstow in June and produced his best effort for some time when also landing 6-runner contest here (5.3f) 18 days ago by 3¾ lengths from Kento, his fifth course success. Could again get a strong pace to aim at and he's a major player. 1st Pick 6 Secret Handsheikh Jockey: Joe Leavy Trainer: John Gallagher J: Joe Leavy T: John Gallagher	100	-	-	-	16%	11/2

5	Winner over 7f here at 3 yrs and, having tumbled in the weights, belatedly doubled his tally at Chepstow (6f) on second outing this month. Comfortably followed up back at Chepstow 5 days ago and he's not taken lightly under a penalty. 2nd Pick 5 Arnaz Jockey: Billy Loughnane Trainer: Mark Loughnane J: Billy Loughnane T: Mark Loughnane	99	-	-	-	14%	13/2

3	Successful twice this year, with latest success at Windsor in May. Arrives in good heart on the back of 2 in-frame efforts at Epsom, finding only a 3-y-o handicap debutant too strong 24 days ago. Enters calculations. 3rd Pick 3 Twirler Jockey: Kieren Fox Trainer: Michael Attwater J: Kieren Fox T: Michael Attwater	97	-	-	-	10%	9/1
