Verdict

Dual-bumper winner FIERCELY PROUD made a promising start to his hurdles career when winning at Hereford on return and can defy a penalty. Geezer Rockstar made a winning debut in a bumper here in April so may emerge as the biggest threat ahead of Avada Kedavra and Beny Nahar Road.

  1. FIERCELY PROUD (IRE)
  2. GEEZER ROCKSTAR (IRE)
  3. AVADA KEDAVRA (IRE)
