The big surprise would have been if a version of the King engine DIDN'T win.  Of
the thirteen competitors, twelve had a serious chance to win.  Of these twelve,
five(!) were a version of the King whereas each other engine was represented
only once.  If one may be so bold as to assume that all twelve are fairly
equivalent in skill, then the King (whatever version) had a five-fold greater
chance of winning than any other engine.
