The Edgar Wallace (11/8), Mylesfromwicklow (15/8), Regal Blue (13/2), Ubetya (17/2), Firak (10/1)

THE EDGAR WALLACE was clearly well served by a second wind op/refitted tongue tie as he made a winning reappearance at Wetherby 6 weeks ago and in the hope he can hold it together this term, all looks set fair for another bold showing. Mylesfromwicklow had some strong hurdles form to his name and impressed when making a winning chase debut at Huntingdon 18 days ago, so he rates the chief threat.
