      Verdict

      Beyond The Clouds is 8lb better off than when beaten just over five lengths by PISGAH PIKE at Worcester but the latter has the most scope fior improvement and can confirm the form. Courtandbould folded quickly when overtaken by the eventual winner at Southwell last month and will need to improve on that here to recoup losses.
