Verdict

ROYAL VILLAGE is still relatively unexposed over fences but based on his win at Market Rasen last time out he seems to be on the up and can take a contest where most rivals have a question mark or two. Ridgeway Flyer is another interesting sort and Paul Nicholls' runner showed he is back fit and well latest after presumably picking up an issue the time before. Flying Angel has been disappointing since exiting novice chases but at his best would take plenty of beating off this mark and a first-time visor offers hope.
