King George winner Bravemansgame moved from Paul Nicholls and will continue career in France

KING GEORGE hero Bravemansgame has been moved to France in a bid to reignite his career over jumps.

The 10-year-old will now be trained by 29-year-old Marine Pineda in Chantilly having spent the last six years with 14-time champion trainer Paul Nicholls.

His best season came in 2022-23 when he won the King George at Kempton on Boxing Day before running a mighty race in defeat when second to Galopin Des Champs in the Cheltenham Gold Cup.

In total he won nine races for Nicholls and £726,484 in prize-money for his owner Bryan Drew.

But his form took a dip this season, with his best performance coming in the Betfair Chase when he was third behind Royale Pagaille. His final run for Paul Nicholls came in the Grand National when he finished 15th.

Drew, who is not averse to moving his horses between trainers, felt a change of scenery would do him some good.

After discussions with Nicholls, they felt switching him to France could help him rediscover some spark in the autumn of his career.

Nicholls said: “He has been a great horse for us at Ditcheat and we had some memorable days with him.

“He won three Grade 1s for us, including a Challow Hurdle and a King George, and he ran a blinder in the Gold Cup a couple of years ago.

“He has had some hard races over the years, and Bryan just felt he would have a better chance of winning a race in France at this stage in his career.

“I have no problem at all with the decision, it’s worth a try and hopefully he goes over there and has a good time of it.”

And the best part is that you can easily turn them into ice lollies for a refreshing snack.

Aldi shared a photo of the 250ml cans and some freshly-made lollies and said they would be perfect for Father’s Day this weekend.

The supermarket wrote on Instagram: “These BOOZY Mango Margarita Popsicles taste like summer, sun & BBQs!!”

They also helpfully shared their lolly recipe if you are tempted to make a batch.

All you need to do is mix together two cans of their Mango Margarita, with one of their 200ml Mango & Passion Fruit Smoothies.

Add two tbsp of fresh lime juice and then divide between the tubs or ice lolly moulds.  

The website states: “Top with a slice of lime and insert a lolly stick, then freeze overnight.  

“When ready to serve, remove the ice lollies from the moulds and sprinkle with a pinch of salt and lime zest.”

The post appears to have excited numerous Aldi shoppers, who rushed to the comments to share their views.

One said: “Need to make these.”

Another added: “Yum.”

And a third commented: “We finally tried the spicy margaritas recently, they’re so good. 

“I can see I’m going to have to try these too!”

Aldi joked in response: “We take no responsibility for any joy and/or mischief that results from the creation of these Popsicles…”

BOOZY BALLS

The supermarket has also just released a range of boozy drinks that have been taking TikTok by storm.

The discount supermarket has boasted that it will be selling BuzzBallz for the cheapest price around, at just £2.99.

The colourful pre-mixed drinks come in clear plastic balls and they’re hugely popular with Gen Z.

You can pick up Choc Tease, Strawberry Rita and Tequila Rita from Aldi this summer.

Choc Tease is described as a “rich, chocolate cocktail crafted with premium vodka, real cream and natural chocolate flavour”.

It can be drunk straight from the ball, in a cocktail glass or poured over ice cream as a dessert.

Tequila Rita is a take on the classic margarita.

It combines a lime flavour with “premium tequila, vodka, and natural flavours”.

The Strawberry Rita is more of a fruity margarita and can either be drunk straight from the ball or poured over ice and garnished with a fresh strawberry.

BuzzBallz are already available in corner shops and in other big supermarkets like Morrisons, Tesco and B&M.

But Aldi says you’ll get them for the cheapest price in its stores.
