In depth
Verdict
Divine Intavention has won seven times under Rules but was all out to win a three-runner point-to-point 10 days ago and faces no easy task with his penalties. BAY TO GO wasn't disgraced over 2m at Cheltenham last month and this is probably his best trip. He might be the value in this ahead of Parkam Jack, who was left clear between the flags eight days ago and was second at Stratford last month having won at Newton Abbot just over two years ago. Maiden pointer Theatre Evening never figured at Kempton but has won over hurdles.
