Gower Prince (5/2), Norn Iron (11/4), Welsh Charger (3/1), Stream Of Stars (4/1), Faivoir (5/1), Haas Boy (15/2), Ooh Betty (8/1), Dr T J Eckleburg (12/1), No Ordinary Joe (22/1), Glengouly (22/1)
DR T J ECKLEBURG has often run well here and returns to hurdles off a much-reduced mark after an unsuccessful 2025/26, so will take beating if retaining most of his ability. Haas Boy enjoyed a highly productive campaign last season and rates the main danger, while Welsh Charger is well treated on old form and is respected, along with veteran Faivoir, who would be even more interesting if the market spoke in his favour.
