Verdict

Bermuda Boy keeps finding one too good and that may be the case again today with the fast-improving DIVINE INTAVENTION among the opposition. Hugh Wilson's eight-year-old has now won 10 times, including three hunter chases, and turned the prestigious Coronation Gold Cup at Larkhill into a procession last month having won over 3m here previously. My Flora is the danger as Sheila Crow's mare came right back to her best when fourth in the Foxhunter Chase at Cheltenham, though had quite a hard race that day. Ryeman was second at Wincanton last time but has plenty to find at the weights.
