Verdict

Gunner Fifteen has won a point-to-point and a bumper and should make a hurdler. He's one of the more interesting contenders in this. Roudoudou Ville has won three times over fences as well as a couple of bumpers. He has a touch of class but a long absence to overcome. Morito Du Berlais was placed in a couple of bumpers earlier this year and will have been well schooled but we'll give another chance to CAROLE'S DESTRIER. He was only beaten a length by a useful novice at Kempton in October on his hurdling debut and was going clear when falling two out at Plumpton next time. Tribulation ran a nice race here last month at big odds and is also worth a second look.
