Verdict

Sadlers Beach toughed it out to complete a course double a month ago but a further 8lb rise could thwart the hat-trick. Volcanique’s stable could not be in better form and 2m was clearly too far on her Turf debut at Beverley. TWPSYN makes a quick reappearance after finishing second at Ffos Las on Monday but David Evans’ gelding is in good form and can get the better of recent winners Sir Canford and Hammy End, though No Thanks can’t be ignored dropping back in distance.
