Kitbag finally returned to winning ways when scoring over track and trip with Banana back in fifth but it could be the turn of WARMINSTER today. The latter was beaten less than a length at Newcastle and looks up to winning off his current mark having slipped down the weights this year. Autumn Angel was beaten only a neck by Red Walls, who runs in the previous division, five days ago but One Last Hug has been in better form over the minimum trip lately.
