Horse-by-horse guide King George VI Chase

Bristol De Mai

Trainer N Twistondavies

Jockey D Jacob

Lost his way last season but now back with a bang; won Betfair Chase by 57 lengths last time but that event has a habit of throwing up odd results; goes in mud but also acts on decent ground Telegraph rating 158+ Odds 7/2

Double Shuffle

T T George

J A Heskin

Capable handicapper, course-and-distance winner but this grade will test him severely. 148, 66/1

Fox Norton

T C Tizzard

J B Cooper

Arrives on an upward curve and is interesting, although this high-class and likeable performer is taking on three miles for the first time (yet to race beyond 2m 4f). Appears to act on any ground. 159, 6/1 Might Bite

T N Henderson

J N de Boinville

Exciting prospect, if sometimes also an enigmatic character. Would have won Feltham Chase here a year ago by a distance but for falling at the last; unbeaten since, including at Cheltenham Festival and Aintree. 158+, 5/4 things have not panned out since and an injury kept him off the track after January. He faded tamely over hurdles on return and much more is needed today. 159?, 6/1

Traffic Fluide

T G Moore

J Joshua Moore

Well behind Bristol De Mai at Haydock and stamina is a major concern. Has not win since March 2015. 150, 66/1
