        Verdict

        OPINIONATE never threatened the winner when runner-up at Kempton on his racecourse debut but showed enough to suggest he can win at this level. He’s preferred to Wolverhampton second Special Relation and Spinwheel, who was beaten less than a length at the latter track despite finishing only fourth. Cloud Dragon is another likely improver while the 230,000gns gelding Abaad is related to a couple of winners in France and is one to note along with fellow newcomers Trade Route and Willwams.
