Verdict

UN DE SCEAUX and Defi Du Seuil fought out one of the best finishes of the National Hunt season so far in the Tingle Creek at Sandown with Philip Hobbs emerging star getting the narrow success. As much as one would normally be naturally inclined towards the younger horse confirming the form the vote goes to Willie Mullins Irish raider due. He only has a neck to find and is 2-2 at Ascot having won this race in 2016 and 2018 (by 7L and 5L). This is his toughest task in the race so far but this genuine great of the turf gets the nod. Capeland runs well here and can prove best of the rest.
