      Verdict

      PRESENTING BERKLEY finished a street clear of a subsequent winner when runner-up at Stratford last time and that looks strong enough form to land this. Overtoujay posted a better effort at Market Rasen and can figure but Camillas Wish won a hunter chase last month and has yet to score in 11 starts over hurdles. Cosmic Statesman went close at Plumpton in April but reverted back to his more usual poor form on his latest start.
