The Good Doctor is penalised on his debut for new connections having won in France back in May while Loverdose is another winner in France debuting for a new yard. Both Spitalfield and Schmilsson finished third on their respective hurdling debuts without threatening the winner while Celtic Ned represents last season’s winning yard. PARADIAS makes his hurdling debut and may prove good enough as he’s rated 95 on the Flat having won over 1m2f at Sandown earlier in the year.
