GUERNESEY went down only narrowly over C&D a fortnight ago despite making a hash of the final flight so Philip Hobbs' improving 5-y-o looks the way to go here. Gutsy Getalead rates a big threat in his bid for a four-timer while both Gran Luna and Osprey Call figure high on the shortlist too in a competitive handicap.
