Wetherby Race 1 - 6 Horses Challenge At Bet365 Novices' Hurdle (Gbb Race)
KADASTRAL (6) makes hurdle debut. Placed second on initial career outing attempting a Kempton Park jumpers flat race before stepping up in standard winning the Hundred Grand “Bumper” jumpers flat race by 3.25L at Newbury. Worth considering. WILSTAR (9) placed third on debut in a Warwick jumpers flat race. That was prior to a 3L victory in a jumpers flat race at Perth. Represents in-form jockey and trainer combination. Dangerous. CAVE BRIDGE (1) bids for a hat-trick following a 1.5L win in a point-to-point and a 2L success on hurdle debut at Carlisle. Mat land the feat. TREE TOP TYSON (2) cannot be ruled out after scoring by 9.5L a Sedgefield maiden hurdle.
