Its always been my intention to go that way provided the horse has been coping with jumping fences and we think he has, John Snook told www.somersetlive.co.uk: ....provided hes 110 per cent on the day, well be in the King George.Tizzard, who has had a tremendous first half of the season, will be bidding for back-to-back wins after Cue Cards last-gasp success 12 months ago.Wed been saying for the last three weeks that we were going to leave the decision as long as we could, but we thought it was only fair that we told people what we intended to do, Tizzard told At The Races.Cue Cards owners have sat down with Thistlecracks owners and they are both in agreement the King George is a once-in-a-lifetime race and both horses are in cracking form, so they should take their chance.Do we need to wait another year before we try to win a King George with him? The owners had the final say and they wanted to go, I fully support it.It would have been easier if Cue Card wasnt in it, but he is and hes in very good form so they can both go.Race sponsor 32Red have made Cue Card the even money favourite with Thistlecrack next best at 6-4.
