A good renewal of this Grade 1 contest although it will be run over unfamiliar terrain having been switched here after the original race at Ascot was lost to the frost. UN DE SCEAUX looks the one to beat with his Tingle Creek win being the best piece of form on offer and he did well to beat a race-fit rival (Sire De Grugy) at Sandown. Has shown that he can act around this course before and it’s probably a question of what chases home the favourite. Whilst many will expect it to be Special Tiara he could get taken on for the lead and often appears to find the final push up the Cheltenham hill too taxing. Top Gamble showed that he was still a high-class chaser with his fine effort here over further (under a big weight) last time out, and his extra stamina may assist him in landing the runner-up slot.
