Verdict

Just Cameron beat a subsequent winner at Bangor and looks a nice prospect. He has more scope than Kelso winner Croco Bay and Red Admirable. Bumper winner Killala Quay has an absence to overcome but should make a hurdler while Valleyofmilan got off the mark over a longer trip at Sedgefield last month, though was becoming expensive to follow prior to that. His stable also run BILLFROMTHEBAR and it's the latter who gets the vote after two runs in bumpers. He scored at Sedgefield last month and has also been placed in a point-to-point so the switch to hurdles shouldn't present a problem.
