Verdict
Humble Opinion gets the confident vote with Bramasole and Extra Mark rating the main dangers. The selection was a good second on his debut behind Chief Exec. He is sure to have come on for the run and if he runs up to that mark again he will be hard to beat. Bramasole rates the main danger he showed a modicum of ability on his debut when ninth behind Missatacama and is another sure to improve.Extra Mark is another with place claims on his latest third behind Frontier but he is more exposed than most And for that reason he is opposed. Of the remainder Yardstick is another that is exposed and has place claims but in a race where stakes should be kept to a minimum for the winner we return to Humble Opinion
