Pundit pick: Pivotal AttackDiffers from our pick

Pivotal Attack heads this competitive seven-furlong Cork contest narrowly ahead of Princess Child on ratings, and the form behind that reading looks solid enough to make the case with confidence. Princess Child and Catalina Delcarpio are the chief dangers and both must be respected, while Wannabe Royal also enters the calculations from six pounds shy of the selection. On balance, Pivotal Attack looks the one to be with, and that is our selection.
