Royal Eagle (7/2), Knightlaila (7/2), World Famous (4/1), Pale Moonlight (6/1), Star Image (13/2), Global Export (7/1), Too Bright (7/1), Adonis (7/1), Your Eyes Only (10/1), Cursory Exam (16/1), Meritorious (16/1), Tooreen Angel (20/1), Final Endeavour (20/1), Magnetic North (50/1)

ROYAL EAGLE has won a novice hurdle at Galway since only just failing to make a winning handicap bow at Dundalk last month and gets the vote. This does look competitive, though, with Knightlaila, Star Image and Pale Moonlight heading the dangers.
