World Trip has gone up 5lb for winning at Huntingdon earlier this month but shouldn’t be far away again if in the same mood and he should confirm that form with third Kilbrew Boy. A good run from Celtic Tara in the first division would boost the claims of fellow Huntingdon winner King Ferdinand but the handicapper may have given a chance to TORNGAT, who was hampered in the closing stages last time at Hexham having attracted market support. Storm Force One makes most appeal of the remainder.
