Kauto Star Odds on to win fourth King George VI Chase
December 22, 2009
All eyes will be on Kempton Park Racecourse on Boxing Day (Saturday 26th December) as the odds on favourite, Kauto Star, aims to win the King George VI Chase for a record fourth consecutive time. Only the great Desert Orchid won the race on four occasions but only managed three back-to-back, a feat achieved by Kauto Star last year and a win in the 2009 renewal of the race would firmly establish the Paul Nicholls trained nine year old as contender for the greatest steeple chaser of all time and when you consider that two of Desert Orchid’s four triumphs in the race came aged 10 and 11, it only adds to the excitement surrounding the two times Cheltenham Gold Cup winner.
Coral are the bookmaker offering the biggest price about Kauto Star with a quote of 8/13, which goes some way to reflecting his chances of victory but it’s a price that, whilst likely return a profit, is only attractive to big hitting punters! However, it is very difficult to advise backing against Kauto Star, with all rivals seemingly having plenty to find.

Imperial Commander is the 5/1 second favourite behind Kauto Star following his second to the King George favourite, beaten only by a nose, in the Betfair Chase at Haydock last month. However, it is expected that Kauto Star will improve following that first run of the season and when you consider the distance between the two in this race last year was 76 lengths, it is hard to see the Nigel Twiston-Davies causing an upset.
The David Pipe trained Madison Du Berlais finished third in the Betfair Chase and should improve for that run and has form for causing an upset at Kempton after beating Paul Nicholls’ other stable star, Denman, at the Middlesex track in February and is sure to have his backers at 8/1. However, it could be the improving Deep Purple who represents excellent each way value at 12/1. Following a solid Novice campaign last year, the Evan Williams trained runner has started the season with two wins and is open to further improvement and whilst it may not be enough to reel in kauto Star, it should at least see him in the top three.
King George VI Chase Odds
Kauto Star 8/13
Imperial Commander 5/1
Madison Du Berlais 8/1
Deep Purple 12/1
Nacarat 14/1
Barbers Shop 16/1
Albertas Run 20/1
