Apache Dawn and Bazart look worth taking on again while Catching Zeds hasn't shown much so far and is now tried in blinkers. Won More Night is seeking a confidence-booster after a heavy fall over fences so this may be best left to BEAT THE DEVIL, who has been quite highly tried over hurdles so far but showed a bit more when third at Newton Abbot in August and should be approaching peak fitness now. Echo Dancer will enjoy the fast ground and could provide the biggest threat.
