MYTHICAL PRINCE looks the one to beat having finished second at Hexham on his debut under Rules. Orchard Lane was placed in a point-to-point in April but It's Grand failed to complete in three starts between the flags in Ireland earlier this year and has joined Donald McCain’s yard. Blue N Yellow is a half-brother to winners on the Flat and over hurdles and is preferred to Pandinus Imperator.
