        Verdict

        PADDY'S ROCK scored over 1m2f at Beverley last week. But most of a 6lb penalty is negated by Rowan Scott's allowance and he was beaten less than a length over course and distance last month when just behind runner-up Torridon. The latter has reverted to his more usual modest form subsequently but recent Ayr third Rock Band has a shout and Benidorm made the frame in a seller at Thirsk recently. Rio Cobolo has the past form to figure off his current mark.
