A typically competitive renewal of the Paddy Power with preference going to BLUEKING D'OROUX, who improved since being fitted with headgear for Paul Nicholls and makes his debut for Dan Skelton over a track and trip that should suit his prominent-racing style. Madara was a revelation when winning the Plate at the Festival and has to be respected after a spin over hurdles, whilst fellow Festival winner Meetmebythesea remains unexposed and can continue to improve in his second season over fences.
