      Verdict

      Reach The Beach beat little of note at Ffos Las two weeks ago but is still preferred to July's Chepstow scorer Now What, who is being partnered by an apprentice who is yet to ride a winner. Cherry Tiger and Walter De La Mare have been struggling over hurdles while Angus Glens and Admirable Duque are out of sorts. HALLBECK (NAP) made all and won easily when dropped into this grade at Brighton and should be good enough to defy her penalty.
