God Of Thunder heads this field on ratings, sitting narrowly ahead of Gallo Dell Cielo and a touch further clear of Kings Gesture and Stone Rulya, and over sixteen furlongs on good ground at Tramore there is a reasonable case that superior stamina and class can be brought to bear. The concern is that the rating edge over the chasing trio is slim, confidence in the selection is modest, and any one of Gallo Dell Cielo, Kings Gesture or Stone Rulya could overturn things on the day. God Of Thunder is the selection.
