Puchita finished third at Leicester recently but remains without a win in 23 starts. BILLY WEDGE is another looking for his first success but looks to have fallen far enough down the weights to finally open his account having gone close over course and distance last time with Gun Case well behind. The rest are harder to recommend though Breathoffreshair was placed over 6f here earlier and Kodimoor landed a hat-trick on the Turf during the summer, though has yet to score on the all-weather.
