War ruled out of Kauto clash
Mouse Morris has revealed that Cheltenham Gold Cup winner War Of Attrition will bypass a clash with Kauto Star in the King George VI Chase and instead be aimed at the Lexus Chase at Leopardstown.
After a narrow defeat by Beef Or Salmon on soft ground in the James Nicholson Wine Merchant Champion Chase, Morris had mentioned the King George as a possibility in search of better ground.
