Verdict

Little Village showed nothing until sent to Ayr in September where she showed improvement to finish runner-up to Casino Night. Johnny Murtagh's booking for Danehill Tapdancer is intriguing as his mount has shown little but better may be expected while Orpens Peach is fit from racing on Polytrack at Wolverhampton where she scored over this trip in January. Road To Victory is not easy to catch right and may be better over the minimum trip but he's capable of a big run as he showed when scoring at Cork in October. Captain James showed a glimmer of ability on his final start at Bellewstown but this can go to MRS BATT, whose close third to Boynagh Joy in a huge field at the Curragh on similar ground to this entitles her to the vote in a very moderate contest.
