Verdict
PIVOTMAN arrives in fine form having won two of his last three starts at Wolverhampton including one of these events on his latest outing. Echo Brava won last year's renewal under Serena Brotherton but the latter partners recent Lingfield winner Celestial Bay this time round. Tight Lipped finished ahead of Estibdaad when fourth in an amateurs' contest at Wolverhampton last time and Hugo Hunt has ridden a couple of winners for Omar Khayyam's yard before.
