WILD BILL HICKOK (1) debuted in a hurdle (3200m) at Compiegne last start and justified solid market support when he scored by 1.5 lengths. Winning rider James Reveley stays aboard again. Open to improvement and can win again. SHABRACK (8) returned from a spell last start and was on debut over the jumps. Could only manage fourth on that occasion, beaten 7 lengths, in a hurdle (3000m) at this track. That run came after a move to the Marcel Rolland yard. One of the better hopes. BERTUTEA (2) made his debut over the jumps when returning from a spell last start. Did a good job on that occasion when third, beaten 7 lengths, in a hurdle (3000m) at this track. Sure to make his presence felt. VOLCANA DU BERLAIS (4) made his debut in a hurdle over 3000m at this track nearly three weeks ago, finishing eighth and beaten 14 lengths at $9.10. Same rider Gaetan Masure aboard. Will be better for that run and is one of the chances.
