Verdict

PIVOTMAN was well beaten in a handicap at York last time but has every chance on today's terms and was up against higher rated rivals than this when third in a claimer at Doncaster on his penultimate start. Mick Easterby's charge is preferred to Bling King who drops in class but last won in 2013. Commissar and Exclusive Waters have both won handicaps this year and could go well while Valantino Oyster has a shout at the weights but arrives badly out of form.
