That's a great idea. Practicing our pitch will be important - our instint is to go to only those that are promising but perhaps we should run through before being face to face with our #1 choice.
If you have many options, start with the firms that you are less excited about to debug the pitch. Only once you are confident you got the deck and narrative right go for the top ones.
Finally, remember that your top priorities are (in that order): closing quickly, quality of the investor and valuation & control.
