Weather eye open
Gale Again was yesterday confirmed an intended runner in Monday's King George VI Chase at Kempton. He remains entered in Wednesday's Ericsson Chase at Leopardstown but trainer Tommy Stack said: "The plan at the minute is to run in the King George.
The ground will be better at Kempton and that will suit him."
Yesterday afternoon, however, the official advance going for Kempton was changed, from good to soft, to soft. No jockey has yet been booked for Gale Again who is quoted at 20-1 for the King George by Ladbrokes.
