Different Opinions
Five races in, and Different Opinions is still waiting for its moment. The three-year-old has yet to win from five attempts, though its record tells a more encouraging story than that headline figure suggests. A runner-up finish sits among the results, and looking back through the recent form — 2nd, 4th, 5th, 8th, 12th — you can see a horse that started promisingly and has since found things a little tougher, though it was out racing again just yesterday, so the team clearly hasn't given up on finding the right opportunity.Based on TrackLab's analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
What works in its favour is the yard it calls home. Trainer K R Burke operates out of Coverham in North Yorkshire, and this season his team has sent out 145 winners — a number that puts him firmly among the most productive trainers in the country. When a yard is firing at that kind of volume, they tend to know exactly where and when to place a horse for its best chance. Different Opinions may not have won yet, but being part of a stable in that sort of form means it is in good hands while it waits for things to click.
At three years old, there is plenty of time. Some horses take a while to find their feet, and the fact that Burke keeps running it — including a race just yesterday — suggests there is belief that a win is not far away.
