Verdict

POET OF LIFE has made an excellent start to his career, and with much better still to come, he can prove his opening BHA mark undersells him by some way. Fellow 3-y-o King of Clubs rates a big threat though with the form of his latest run at Newmarket proving very strong. Sky Defender’s mark continues to ease and he may go well at bigger odds.
