Cases can be made for all the sextet but preference is for NIGHT ON EARTH. Mick Appleby's charge has had plausible excuses for a couple of below-par efforts recently and, with his mark continuing to ease, he's fancied to open his account on the turf this year with first-time cheekpieces added to his usual hood. Navello arrives in good nick so he heads up the opposition, ahead of 5-time course winner Gabrial The Devil.
