      Verdict

      Faustus overcame trouble in-running to score at Brighton and, though not the most consistent, a 4lb rise isn't excessive. The three-year-old GIRL MAGIC has won twice over 6f on fast ground here this summer and been leading at this trip in both. She's only up 2lb for last month's success and can go in again. Recon Mission hasn't won for over a year but is on a lower mark while Betweenthesticks is 2lb lower than when beaten a short-head over the track and trip last month. Neither of the remaining pair are out of this tight handicap.
