KING'S TRUST upped his game following a gelding operation when beating a now useful rival at Southwell in October and with further progress on the cards, John & Thady Gosden's charge gets the nod to make a winning start to life in handicaps. His main threat may emerge from Blue Courvoisier, who is yet to finish outside the first 2 in 3 starts and should have more to offer. Arbaawy can edge out Luzon Heights for third.
