Trainer Willie Mullins appears to have found a fitting opportunity for the Kings Theatre gelding, ROYAL RENDEZVOUS to put the tribulations of his Galway festival debut behind him by landing the closing race of the day in this contest. Gordon Elliott's four-year-old son of Dylan Thomas, Whoshotthesheriff can follow the selection home, while Hang In There should be noted on belated debut.
