Un De Sceaux tipped for glory in Arkle Challenge Trophy at Cheltenham

Un De Sceaux attempts to live up to his billing as the most exciting novice chaser around when he lines up for the Racing Post Arkle Challenge Trophy at Cheltenham today.

The seven-year-old will ensure there is no hiding places as he loves to bowl along in front and run his rivals into the ground.

He overcame a blip when he came down on his fencing debut, when well clear at Thurles in November, to win in good style at Fairyhouse the following month. Un De Sceaux then took the Grade One Irish equivalent of the Arkle at Leopardstown on his only subsequent start in impressive fashion by 15 lengths from Clarcam.
