Celler Spider
I agree with this being a long-bodied celler spider. With the abdomen being so out of focus, I think that fact supports this specimen having a long body. Judging from the size of the pedipalps, I also think this is a male.

Cellar Spider
Probably one of the Long-bodied Cellar Spiders. Just can't see what shape the abdomen is. Check the images in the guide.
