King George news

Envoi Allen’s surprise win in the Grade 1 Ladbrokes Champion Chase on November 5 did two things.

One, it announced him back on the top table of horses and Cheltenham Festival contenders.

Two, it threw open the options for where he could run.

Punters have been quick to react to his Down Royal victory, where he beat the likes of Galvin, Kemboy and Conflated.

But his place in the line-up might depend on where Ryanair hero Allaho goes.

Trainer Willie Mullins has indicated the King George ‘will be his early-season’ aim but that could depend on whether or not he runs in the Clonmel Oil Chase on November 17.
