Verdict

FOREST OF DEAN started 2023 with a cosy C&D success and has less on his plate than when sixth to stablemate Lord North in Lingfield's Winter Derby so looks the way to go. Irish-challenger Freescape shouldn't be underestimated and is next on the list ahead of Base Note, who wasn't seen to best effect at Wolverhampton last time.
