Forest Of Dean has improved with every run and was only beaten a neck at Newcastle two weeks ago. He is the one to beat on that form but owner Khalid Abdullah has every chance of a quick double with DEFERENCE. The Showcasing colt made a very promising debut at Lingfield at the start of the month and will enjoy this stiffer track. Repulse Bay is having a first run since May but Moraawed is worth a market check. He cost £120,000 as a yearling and his half-brother Crash Helmet won on Tapeta earlier this year.
