        Verdict

        COREY’S COURAGE is difficult to oppose in this having made an impressive start over timber at Bangor last month when the more-experienced Billams Legacy was beaten almost 13 lengths in third. There should be plenty more to come with that run under her belt. None of the others make much appeal with Briery Express, who had decent form in bumpers, having a first run since April 2019.
