Evacusafe Lady makes a quick reappearance having landed a hat-trick with victory here on Thursday. But she's not certain to last home over this longer trip and ANJIN is just preferred. The latter came up short when sent off favourite over 2m last time but can make amends in this. Stilla Afton may do better stepping up in distance today and Rock Of Leon went close on a couple of occasions during the summer but it's hard to make a case for any of the remainder.
