FormscanBy Eamonn Murphy - THE RAIN KING failed by some way to come up to market expectations last time and it’ll be interesting to see the level of confidence behind him in this. In the immediate run-in to The Rain King’s Curragh June 26th assignment, he tumbled in price from 9/2 into 9/4. Seventh place was the best Donnacha O’Brien’s charge could manage in a decent maiden won by another owned by the Coolmore partners, Delphi. Slower ground mightn’t do the selection any harm at all now, and he’s taken to vindicate the promise shown on debut when third at Naas on June 8th. Castel Gandolfo needs to bounce back after an underwhelming effort on testing terrain at Roscommon. Shane Foley reported then that his mount hung right in the straight. Drawn out wide in fifteen Crassus could come forward for the addition of blinkers.
