Verdict
PUCHITA made all over 6f last week to land a course double with a wide-margin success. A 5lb penalty is negated by an apprentice’s allowance and she can complete the hat-trick representing Antony Brittain’s in-form yard. Decision Maker also won over 6f here last month though never figured off a higher mark last time and Global Melody is preferred having been beaten only a neck over course and distance a couple of days ago. Without a win in 10 starts in Ireland, Captainofthebounty debuts for new connections having slipped down the weights but four-time course winner Archimedes remains out of form.
