What they say: 'I've always thought three miles would bring out the best in him'
Paul Nicholls, trainer of Bravemansgame, Hitman, Frodon and Pic D'Orhy
The King George is all we've been targeting for Bravemansgame since he came in. He's in good shape and won well on his comeback. Hitman is doing well too and this would be a nice race for him. I've always thought three miles would bring out the best in him. He did the job well the last day at Haydock and we'll look forward to running. Frodon will go, he's come out of Haydock in good nick. Pic D'Orhy will run in the Peterborough Chase on Sunday and we'll make a plan after that.
Dan Skelton, trainer of Protektorat
We're obviously aiming for the Gold Cup again. I don't think he'll go to the King George and I imagine we'll either go to Lingfield for the Fleur De Lys Chase or the Cotswold Chase.
Joe Tizzard, trainer of Eldorado Allen
He's come out of Haydock really well. He ran a really nice race and we're chuffed to bits with him. He's produced two lovely runs so far this season and what he's shown me is that he gets the trip really well now, and both times he's galloped through the line. I think those runs were right up there with his best, which means he's capable of having serious each-way chances in these kinds of races. We've given him the option of Kempton and we won't make a full decision until right up to the day, but he seems really well and we're keeping an eye on it.
