Going - Soft (Straight course) & Yielding to Soft (Round): Changed after Race 4 to Yielding to Soft (Straight) & Yielding (Round). Fine

Formscan By Alan Magee - PIVOTAL ATTACK had Amelia Earhart over four lengths behind in second, with Black Caviar Gold third, when taking a maiden in fine style at the Galway Festival. The Joe Murphy-trained filly was far from disgraced over course and distance last time in the Group 1 Moyglare Stud Stakes and this looks a good opportunity to regain the winning thread. Kensington Lane had Minerva nearly eight lengths adrift in fourth when taking a Gowran maiden in decisive fashion, while Alibah didn’t enjoy a clear passage before finishing with a flourish when a close third in the Listed Blenheim Stakes at Fairyhouse on Monday.
