Opinion Poll trainer Micael Jarvis is confident his four-year-old has the potential to come up with the goods at Doncaster on Friday and claim the Doncaster Cup.
After winning the Lonsdale Cup at York in August, Opinion Poll has been hit with a 3lb penalty over an extra two furlongs, but Jarvis believes the trip could suit him.
"He's been in good form since he ran at York. It's another two furlongs so we going slightly into the unknown but he has a very relaxed style of running, so we've every hope he'll get the extra two," said the Newmarket-based handler.
"Any further ease in the ground will be to his favour. Up until the rain came earlier in the week he was a doubtful runner. He's got a 3lb penalty but that is what you expect - when you win these races, you get penalties."
