King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes

    Up until a few days ago the King George looked a tight race from a betting point of view with Telescope a touch short but quite solid nonetheless after a really impressive win over course and distance in the Hardwicke, Magician priced about right at around 7/2 and Taghrooda at 11/2. But over the weekend the Oaks winner's price has collapsed whilst Magician has been really weak on Betfair. This drift suggested the Ballydoyle colt was a possible non runner but with Australia pretty much nailed on to run in the Juddmonte next month I can't see any other race for him so I took a chance last night at 11 and have topped up slightly at 8 just now. I'm always careful with horses from that stable who look artifically big for a race but it's a chance worth taking for small stakes.

King George:
