PUTDECASHONTHEDASH got off the mark at the seventh time of asking in a Wincanton 3m1f novice handicap off a 10lb lower mark last month. The Doyen gelding had been running well in defeat in a number of starts prior to his win and can continue in good form in this event. Distance winner Flying Verse is better than his most recent run at Doncaster suggests and provide the biggest resistance to the selection. The Fergal O'Brien-trained Benechenko can go well with Johnathan Burke replacing Connor Brace who has piloted the eight-year-old on his last four starts. Adherence for trainer Tim Vaughan would not surprise if bouncing back to form on return to this venue.
