Aim is to use Pageant with PuTTy to avoid giving the key phrase multiple times a day. With default configuration in PuTTy, specifying username@host is not enough to trigger it to use the Pageant that is running on the background with the key loaded.

What kind of configuration options I would possibly looking for to change?

Under the settings view (left-hand side), expand "Connection" then "SSH" then "Auth" and checkoff "Attempt authentication using Pageant".
