KING GEORGE VI CHASE
The King George VI Chase, will feature some of National Hunt’s top talent, with ten runners currently entered for this 3m trip. Two time winner, Clans Des Obeaux is once again fancied to take the spoils having missed out on a third successive win last year, when third to the returning champion, Frodon, who won with Briony Frost onboard, beating Waiting Patiently. Along with this leading pair, the likes of Minella Indo, Chantry House and Asterion Forlonge all have genuine chances, in what should be one of the most exciting King George;s we’vre had in a long time.

These two look the star attractions once again and another close battle is expected.
KAUTO STAR NOVICE CHASE
The Kauto Star Novice Chase has seen some famous winners, including Black Corton and Shan Blue, with this years edition expected to see a battle between Bravemansgame and Ahoy Senor, who meet for the first time since the latter beat the former, by 7 lengths in the Doom Barr at Aintree back in April, when a 66/1 shot.
