    Verdict

    Very modest fare but something has to take the pot home and DOCTOR KEHOE is a tentative choice. He hasn't had too much racing and was staying on at one pace here the last day after not looking overly keen. David Evans applies a first-time visor which will hopefully make the son of Cockney Rebel focus more on the job in hand. Awesome Rock gained a first career success on his 22nd career start at Kempton in April but does most of his running on synthetic surfaces these days and Dancing Primo is probably more solid although her Lingfield victory in June was a first success for getting on for three years. She's seen as the main danger though, whilst Cocker and Noble Master have shown very little to date but wouldn't have to improve too much to take a hand.
