PIVOTAL FLAME and Tigerfish have already won twice around here and the top weight may be ready to hit form again in a first-time visor with Paddy Bradley taking off 3lb. Liberisque wasn’t winning out of turn at Chelmsford in October but couldn’t cope with a weight rise on a return visit and has another 2f to cover here. Becca Campbell has proved hard to place this year and is getting little help from the handicapper while Luna Magic remains out of sorts.
