There was lots to like about that hurdles debut from FIERCELY PROUD as he sauntered clear to win by over 9 lengths. He always travelled strongly and you could call him the winner some way out. He is open to further improvement and should be able to make it 2-2 over timber here. Beny Nahar Road bumped into Willmount at Newbury last time and with more to come looks the biggest danger. Geezer Rockstar is another one to note on debut over hurdles.

I know we haven't seen DESERT ORDER for 432 days but he could easily be a cut above these on his belated return. He was beaten just a short head by Arrest at Sandown and then improved to win at York and then scored on handicap debut at Newmarket. He is 3lb higher but is open to improvement back up to a mile and is fancied to get the job done. Fantastic Fox is on a hat-trick and looks the most obvious danger despite a further 4lb rise.
