BILLAMS LEGACY was second over course and distance in March and again following a break at Worcester in October. She’s not been easy to place but can take advantage of the 10lb she receives today, including Liam Harrison’s claim, from Notnowlinda, who was a bit disappointing upped in class at Cheltenham after a win at Warwick. Vienna Girl is an interesting recruit to hurdling and makes more appeal than Turbulent Power of the others.
