Betting news with Ladbrokes Movers in the King George VI Chase as SOMERSBY shortens into 12/1 (from 16) and DIAMOND HARRY is now 16/1 (from 20), both very popular in the betting today. Hayley O'Connor of Ladbrokes said: "Punters looking for an alternative to the favourite for the King George VI Chase have opted for Henrietta Knight's Somersby with the former course winner being significantly well backed throughout the day."
