A case can be made for plenty of these. Enobled was beaten only a nose at Haydock a week ago and Innsbruck suffered a narrow defeat at York last time. Raven Ridge has been threatening to get his head in front off similar marks and Ty Gwr will have come on for a belated reappearance on the all-weather. Loving Home beat nothing to land the odds in a maiden last time and is 5lb higher back in handicap company so PUZZLE TIME is preferred. She's taken each step up in class in her stride and won nicely at Ripon to land a hat-trick. Giles Bravery's filly gets the vote to continue winning ways in this.
