COOL STAR is taken to make a winning debut over fences. He posted a couple of decent efforts when competing over hurdles around this time last year and has since notched up four victories between the flags. Lion On The Prowl faces his easiest assignment since sent chasing and ought to be there or thereabouts, while course winner Fennis Boy certainly isn't out of it either on his return from a break.
