cavalry pursuit questions

Barry,
pursuing P.38
When pursuing cavalry come up against fresh enemy, you explain this as deferred to the charge step in the turn;
Q1. does the pursuing unit need to test to charge and charge home?
Q2. does the pursuing unit do the same 2xD6 check for charges to see if they catch the fresh unit stationary?
Q3. why does the fresh enemy unit count as disordered (is this because the routing unit is assumed to have burst through it)?
We find that pursuing cavalry contacting fresh units happens quite a lot in our games due to the squadrons being deployed in some depth.
Bob.
