Might Bite Can Get His Teeth Into Kempton

A s we move into the heart of the National Hunt season there are several question marks over the big guns (Altior, Douvan, Thistlecrack, and of the younger brigade, Our Duke) and also a changing of the guard with the likes of Coneygree, Cue Card and others on the wane.

Of course the big race of the month is the King George VI Chase on Boxing Day and the market is making this a two-way go between the enigmatic Might Bite and Thistlecrack.

Not since Kauto Star have I seen a more impressive winner of the race than Colin Tizzard’s then novice Thistlecrack last year, but his injury at the back end of the season does cast a doubt over his return.

At his best I think there would be little between the pair, but fine margins are there to be excavated and MIGHT BITE is without doubt the right favourite having put in a sublime round of fencing at Sandown Park on his seasonal debut.
