Verdict

THEFLYINGKING was an expensive store and subsequently won his only start in points, so he's the one to beat having his first go under Rules. Strong Link sets a reasonable standard based on his second at Navan, while Bective Thunder, a stablemate of the selection, is noteworthy on pedigree.
