        Verdict

        Puchita was winning for the first time in 34 attempts when scoring over track and trip and carries 5lb extra today. Star Cracker beat the latter in the process of landing a double over today’s trip at Newcastle in January but never figured on his only previous outing here and JEM SCUTTLE (NAP) makes more appeal. The latter has placed on the Fibresand in all three starts since undergoing wind surgery and looks to have leading claims racing off the same mark as when runner-up a fortnight ago. Karalini was having her first outing since 2018 when third of four runners in a seller over 5f here and Aquarius is back on a winning mark.
