MAGUIRE RETURNS ON VILLAGE KING

Adrian Maguire is set to partner leading fancy Village King in the Pertemps Great Yorkshire Chase when he returns to action at Doncaster on Saturday.

The Irishman was very sore after a fall at Ascot on Friday and missed his rides at Haydock Park the following afternoon.

He is currently sitting out a five-day suspension which ends on Friday.

'I ride Village King in the Great Yorkshire Chase,' Maguire said today. 'I won on him at Cheltenham last time and he won well.

'I feel great and, all being well, I'll have a full book of rides at Doncaster.'

Village King is currently a best-priced 6-1 chance with Stanley for Saturday's race.

Maguire, who won last year's Great Yorkshire Chase on Major Bell, has ridden 45 winners so far this season.-PA
