Edelak
1m4f Flat winner in Ireland last summer (useful form); only sixth of seven in Listed juvenile hurdle on stable debut in December (breathing issue reported) and found one too good when 2-7 favourite at Market Rasen (2m, good; first-time cheekpieces) this month; however, he was well clear of the others on that recent outing and looks the one to beat here.

From the connections
“Edelak was a bit disappointing at the Curragh a few weeks ago and I'd say he just thinks about things too much. Johnny [Murtagh] said he was going to put him in here and work him with blinkers during the week and he worked well. I wanted to jump out and get him travelling and he did, he travelled like a dream - Georgie Benson, jockey, speaking to RacingTV.”
