Verdict

PIVOT BRIDGE made a successful journey over from Ireland last week when dotting-up by six lengths over track and trip. He can shrug off a penalty in this lower grade. Captain Swift also returned to winning ways over course and distance at the end of last month while Stonecoldsoba won over 1m4f here in November. Macksville posted a better effort at Lingfield last time and is preferred to the returning Dynamo while Dream Serenade was placed over 2m at the track a week ago and could go well.
