Experienced flat horse who is the second runner for John & Thady Gosden here, with six career runs since his debut in 2018. His last outing brought his latest victory, in a class two race over 1m 2f at Newcastle last month.
Forest Of Dean won this contest two years ago in the hands of Robert Havlin, beating Felix and Hollie Doyle by three quarters of a length. He also ran in this race last year, where he came 2nd behind Alenquer.
This is a track he loves and has performed well at and should be in the running for another shot at a second Winter Derby Stakes victory.
