PIVOTAL ROLE has shown promise in his three starts. He clearly needed his last run and could bounce back to beat these rivals. BLINDFIRE picked up a deserved second win and only got a 3-point penalty for that win so may well follow up. INAFIX has not been at his best of late but can get into the mix of things. TIGER STORM, PALACE REVOLT and ORIENTAL BOUQUET may need to find some improvement if they are to win but they are capable of earning some money.
