Verdict

WILSTAR and Kadastral are both exciting recruits to hurdling judged on their bumper exploits. The latter built on his debut promise to land a valuable prize at Newbury in March, but narrow preference is for the former, who impressed with his last-to-first move in a well-run affair at Perth and has clearly inherited plenty of his illustrious family's ability. Cave Bridge overcame inexperience to make a winning hurdling debut at Carlisle recently and is open to improvement.
