A half-brother to a couple of winning hurdlers, ALTIOR may prove good enough on his debut given his powerful yard's impressive strike rate at the track. Malcolm Jefferson has a good record in this so Double W's is another newcomer to note along with Dashing Over partnered by A P McCoy. Daisie Raymond was still beaten a long way when third here on her debut but finished ahead of Tapaidh Frankie and makes most appeal of those with experience.
