Un De Sceaux camp take stock after bypassing Ascot date

Un De Sceaux could head to Newbury, Leopardstown, or step back up in trip for the Ascot Chase after Willie Mullins sidestepped an outing this weekend on account of the ground.

Until yesterday morning, the indications were the 11-year-old would bid for a fourth victory in tomorrow’s Clarence House Chase at Ascot and have another crack at Altior in the process after coming a gallant second in last month’s Tingle Creek Chase.
