*Tested inclusion of Cat Trick and Avian Watcher, went 8-3 (73%) to get to rank 4. New list splits the difference between the most recent lists by Epiphany (secretkeeper + tracking for fiery bats, 2nd horserider for explosive trap, 2nd wolf for watcher) and Thijs (2nd explosive trap for horserider, 2nd watcher for wolf).
Went 21-7 (75% win rate) with this deck to rocket from rank 10 to rank 5. Credit to @Secret_Epiphany for the core of the list. Seems very good with so many playable hunter cards from Karazhan. Stats below. Please excuse the 1-3 vs Shaman. Should have been 2-2 but I misplayed when I failed to clear a shaman's minions and he burst me down for 12!
Lots of Eaglehorn Bow action with 8 secrets and double Cloaked Huntress.
Strong turn 4 Barnes play as every minion has potential value.
Strong end game with Savannah Highmane and Call of the Wild.
Mulligan strategy:
Always keep Fiery Bat and Secretkeeper.
Keep Eaglehorn Bow if you have a 1 drop or the coin.
Keep Cloaked Huntress with any secret or the coin.
Keep secrets if you have Secretkeeper or Cloaked Huntress in hand.
Possible additions/substitutions:
Tracking
Kindly Grandmother
Bear Trap
2nd Explosive Trap
2nd Argent Horserider
2nd Infested Wolf
2nd Avian Watcher
Ragnaros the Firelord

Went 11-3 from 18 to 15. Only way I lost was when the mulligan brought back high cost cards, and even then I pulled a few out. Nice deck.
You could put in a 5 drop like Stranglethorn Tiger, Avian Watcher, or Stampeding Kodo, or just double up on your favorite secret.
Sorry to hear that man. Deck works great for me. Make advantageous trades, but you also need to sense when it time to focus on face damage, especially near the end of the game. Traps and bow will usually take care of enemy minions so keep the pressure up.
The best deck on 15-10 rank
