Verdict
COURAGE had some decent form on the Flat for Sir Michael Stoute and should be up to winning this judged on his latest run behind Djakadam at Limerick. Dragon Khan looked a decent prospect when a good third at Rscommon on his hurdling bow but didn't quite make the expected progress at Wexford, though there's plenty of time to improve. Spot The Pro is on the upgrade as his run behind Dalasiri here in January shows and he should be in the firing-line while Bayan has run better than his form figures suggest and he can go well at a fair price.
