Superstar can get career back on track in King George on Boxing Day

Thistlecrack
King George
1pt win at 8-1 generally

When it comes to staying races the first name on anyone's teamsheet should definitely be Colin Tizzard. Last season he won the Cheltenham Gold Cup and the Albert Bartlett and this term he's enjoyed a one-two in the Ladbrokes Trophy. He's also won two of the last three King Georges.

He has three potential runners in the 32Red-sponsored prize this year but Sizing Tennessee is much more likely to try to take advantage of his good handicap mark in the Welsh National. That leaves two: Gold Cup hero Native River and Thistlecrack, who won this race in 2016.
