BRAVEMANSGAME can win the Ladbrokes King George VI Chase (GBB Race) (3.05pm) at Kempton Park on Boxing Day.
The seven-year-old can provide trainer Paul Nicholls with a record-extending 13th victory in the Grade One Christmas feature.
The King George is one of the festive period’s top contests and this year’s renewal looks well up to scratch with the rising second season chasers Bravemansgame, L’Homme Presse, Ahoy Senor and Hitman doing battle with the likes of 2020 winner Frodon and Irish raider Envoi Allen. Nicholls trains three of those but it could be a match between his Bravemansgame and the Venetia Williams-trained L’Homme Presse, who have both shown their ability this season with convincing wins in the Charlie Hall Chase at Wetherby and Rehearsal Chase at Newcastle respectively.
