Forecasts

Enraged (3/1), Blackcurrent (3/1), Rose Bandit (7/2), Basholo (6/1), Mrs Bagerran (9/1), Ruggles (10/1), Aikido (11/1), Canzone (12/1), Mr Ginja Ninja (25/1), Annie Rose (40/1)

ENRAGED ended 2022 firmly on the up and shaped well after an absence when runner-up over C&D last time so is fancied to go one better now off an unchanged mark. Rose Bandit arrives on a long losing run but didn't enjoy the rub of the green when fourth at Wolverhampton a week ago and is next on the list. In-form maiden Mrs Bagerran and returning C&D scorer Blackcurrent complete the shortlist.
