ARTHUR'S KINGDOM made such a big impression behind stable companion Toronto at Leopardstown that he started long odds-on at Killarney but couldn't resist the late challenge of Baby Zeus. He may not have been suited by front-running and gets another chance. His stablemate San Pedro takes a big leap in trip after staying on steadily over an extended 5f at Navan and looks certain to be suited. King Of The Throne showed good speed for a long way behind O'Brien's Mogul at the Curragh and is entitled to come on for the run though Taramansour looks more of a threat after a very promising run behind yet another Ballydoyle inmate Cormorant at Leopardstown.
