The Paddy Power Stayers’ Hurdle has garnered significant attention, with 36 entries, including defending champion Teahupoo.
Over half the entries hail from Ireland, underlining their dominance in this sphere.
French contender Gold Tweet is also a possible entry, along with back-to-back Long Walk Hurdle winner Crambo, who could deliver a first Festival victory for Fergal O’Brien.

Other key names include Ollie Murphy’s Strong Leader, Nicky Henderson’s Lucky Place, and Dan Skelton’s two-time Coral Cup champion Langer Dan.
The Irish duo of Joseph O’Brien’s Home By The Lee and Henry de Bromhead’s Hiddenvalley Lake are also poised to challenge for top honors.
