One-million-pound yearing STRONG OPINION was much improved from debut when beaten only by a useful sort at Newmarket in November and gets the nod over Balmacara, who made a promising start when third on the same card at the Rowley Mile. Ghaihaban looks capable of winning one of these so is another to consider.
