Verdict

Paul Nicholls sets a poser here as Divin Bere bids to give him a fourth successive victory in this. A poor 2017-18 season needs to be laid aside and it is possible wind surgery may be the answer, but for now he carries a risk. Flying Tiger has taken on some of the best hurdlers but he would want some rain and the forecast good ground allows HIGHWAY ONE O ONE a chance to make a winning chase debut. He has always appealed as a chasing type, yet he did nothing but improve as a hurdler and was rated on a par with his chief rivals here after his latest run.
