1 Blue Lord 2 Gentleman De Mee 3 Sceau Royal

This is a penalty kick for Blue Lord and it is without doubt the least competitive Grade 1 of the weekend. Maybe Gentleman De Mee can recapture some of his spring form on this nicer ground and chase him home with the admirable Sceau Royal likely to fill third spot. If Blue Lord is to have any chance of winning the Champion Chase, he would have to be winning this by double digits.
