We said7th of 9, beaten 4¼ at 7/2

ECCLEFECHAN 15/8

ECCLEFECHAN at 15/8, John Ryan and Jack Mitchell, gets the vote, and it is the kind of race we wait for. He has had 2 of his last 4 starts on the wrong trip, back to 8f today where he wins and his mark is 6lb lower for it and has won here.

The dangers are ASCENDING STAR at 4/1 (went close off this mark) and GREAT CHIEFTAIN at 10/1 (well handicapped).
