Verdict
Ryan Moore's presence on FOREST MAIDEN suggests she will run a big race on her reappearance. A winner at Kempton in September, the Godolphin filly has plenty of scope for improvement and gets the vote. Anastazia has every chance on her recent close-up third over track and trip but Danseur Noble has shown her best form at Southwell so far. Kempton winner Dark War failed to cope with a 5lb rise last time and is upped a further 2lb but David Barron trained the 2013 winner and Red Tycoon is not easily dismissed back in a handicap.
