PICHELOT placed over hurdles and won over fences when trained in France and that experience should stand him in good stead debuting for Donald McCain. Several make their hurdling debuts including Equus Dancer, who landed a double in bumpers early in the year including a victory at this track while Faustinovick found only one too good in a bumper at Newbury in March. Glenduff and Rare Clouds are others to note hurdling for the first time and point-to-point winner Dancewiththewind debuts under Rules.
