Verdict

RURAL LINK looked the likeliest winner before he became unsteerable in the straight at Listowel and, while there are concerns to be drawn from that performance, he's worth a chance to show that it was a one-off. Time In A Bottle is the obvious threat on form, although Live Aid could improve markedly from his debut.
