5/1
Left bumper run behind when making all on 2m Bangor hurdling debut in July but limitations seemingly exposed since. Likely to find the odd one too strong.

5/1
Fairly useful ex-Irish 12f Flat winner who has taken well to hurdles, making all in Fontwell novice in September. More will be required under a penalty now, though.

11/10
Point winner. Failed to meet market expectations in a bumper last autumn but much more promising signs when second on Market Rasen hurdle a year later. Open to improvement and the one to beat.

No show in 3 bumpers and looks a big outsider now hurdling.

3/1
Built plenty on the form of his 2 thirds last season when opening account in Newton Abbot bumper on return. Encouraging first effort over hurdles when third at Taunton 16 days ago. Likely to improve.

25/1
Half-sister to fairly useful hurdler Ferocious (21f winner): Dam fair but temperamental 2½m hurdle winner (stayed 2¾m). Betting perhaps the best guide to what's expected on debut.

Forecasts

Gunsight Ridge (11/10), Onemorefortheroad (3/1), Away At Dawn (5/1), Bashful Boy (5/1), Dreams And Visions (20/1), Gale Force One (25/1), Kings Own (300/1)

Verdict

GUNSIGHT RIDGE shaped very well when runner-up on his Market Rasen hurdle debut at the start of the month and this looks a good opportunity for him to go one better. Onemorefortheroad can build on his opening hurdle effort at Taunton and provide the chief threat ahead of Fontwell winner Bashful Boy.
