Bought for £42,000 having dead-heated in a Tallow point-to-point where only three finished. Stayed on well that day but it is worth noting the favourite was clear until coming down two out. Stable are 3-6 in the past fortnight so worth a check in the market.
Cost just €3,500 after just two point-to-point runs in Ireland, where he might have won the second had he not fallen at the last. Jumping lacked fluency on debut and headgear now applied. Looks to have plenty to find. Stable took this in 2013.
Made hurdling debut on unsuitable ground in Ireland. Interesting here following four Flat runs that show he retains some ability following an 18 month layoff.
More to like about his recent Fairyhouse performance where the tongue-tie appeared to have a positive effect. Trainer does well with his Scottish raiders and has engaged a rider who is 3-13 for the yard, with a further eight placed, when partnering their hurdlers.
€17,500 purchase as a three-year-old. Down the field on his bumper debut and will come on for today's experience.
Has improved with each run. Needs to find more having been clearly outpointed, by a then 117 rated horse, at Stratford. Yard do well with their small string and are 11-52 this season for a 21 percent strike rate.
Stable won both divisions of this in 2010. Recent form suggests their runner this time will come up short, despite the booking of a top rider.
Untimely errors have cost him races at Southwell and, most recently, Market Rasen. Those mistakes have come when brought under pressure. Clearly the one to beat if his technique is equal to the test. Stable are 6-18 here.
Has shown a moderate standard of form here and in Ireland. Needs to improve her jumping but should find this trip to her liking. Yard are 4-53 at this track.
Half-sister to several winners the pick of whom is I'm So Lucky. Sent off favourite on her point-to-point debut but was soon in trouble. Has a lot to prove on her hurdling debut.

Royal Village (8/15), Petiville (11/2), Ramore Will (9/1), Coole Hall (12/1), Mullaghboy (12/1), Classical Milano (16/1), Magistral (20/1), Caerleon Kate (20/1), Whispering Affair (33/1), Night Comes In (80/1), Left Back (100/1)
ROYAL VILLAGE carries some risks with errors having potentially cost him dearly in recent races. This looks a lot easier though and his trainer has a good strike rate here. Mullaghboy shaped better for the fitting of a tongue-tie last time and he will be in the shake-up. Petitville has made obvious progress since moving to his new handler. The longer trip can yield further improvement and he will probably give the selection most to do.
