Solution

The correct option is D Beating the coach
Here, both 'beating the coach' and ' surpassing the coach' imply the same thing- that the postmaster would reach the next town before the carriage carrying the king and the queen. So, the use of 'surpassing' is redundant and can be discarded. The answer is option B.
