Formscan - The unexposed RIVER KING had plenty in hand when winning over a mile at Newbury. This stiff 7f should not be a problem for Richard Hannon's four-year-old and he can defy an 8lb rise. The Wizard Of Eye is only 5lb higher than when lifting his second Victoria Cup over C&D and he has to be respected. Great Acclaim was second on that occasion and is another with strong claims. Apiarist may be able to reward each-way support, while similar comments apply to Dance In The Storm and Arctic Dawn.
