IDEE DE GARDE looks the part on papaer and with his yard doing nciely over the holdiay period is taken to make a winning racecourse debut. Previous winner Hangard sets the standard but there is a question mark over the value of his C&D win in the autumn. Under his penalty he may prove vulnerable. Drenek, Thepensionfund, and Younoyounoyouno are other newcomers who are likely to have potential.
