Verdict
REACH OUT's jumping fell apart here last month and he was eventually pulled up in a race in which Kissing Clara finished a well-beaten fifth. AP McCoy, who steered Brendan Powell's gelding into a close-up third at Market Rasen previously, is back on board today however and the combination is fancied to bounce back and land this seller. High Fallutin should improve on her fourth at Newton Abbot and could be the danger unless there's significant market support for one of the newcomers.
