ESPOIR DE TEILLEE won a bumper at Ffos Las in April and was making his debut over timber when coming here last month where he made all and came home unchallenged. He has a penalty to carry but will be very difficult to beat. Drums Of War showed some potential in bumpers and will have needed last month's hurdling debut at Sedgefield while Spin The Coin led for a long way on his debut over timber at Carlisle and looks the type to improve with experience. It'll Do Rightly easily won a maiden point at Portrush though that was over a year ago.
