The 1.45 at Kempton looks a hot beginner’s chase. Trigger the Light won twice over hurdles last season, beating Ornais, who has since won over fences, at Taunton. Treasury Counsel is another dual hurdles winner and like Trigger the Light should make a better chaser. The ex French Vitray is a well bred newcomer form Paul Nicholls while Carnival Town has chasing experience, having finished 2nd to Money Order a couple of weeks ago at Bangor.
