Free-going sort. Fourth in a Doncaster maiden that has worked out well. Value for more than the 1-length winning margin when off the mark in a first-time hood at Wolverhampton (7f) last week. Likely to stay this extra furlong and leading claims to follow up under a 6 lb penalty.

Standout effort when 7 lengths third at York (7f) second time up. That form is looking increasingly flimsy besides the winner, and he'll need to improve in first-time cheekpieces on nursery bow.

Confirmed previous promise when off the mark in strongly-run nursery here (7f) last month. Things didn't pan out as well when beaten 3½ lengths under a penalty in a course selling handicap 7 days later. Could do better stepped up to 1m, for all the pace setup again looks less than ideal.

Again never competitive in a useful Newmarket novice (6f, 150/1) on qualifying run. In more realistic company here, and the switch to a nursery/longer trip offers some hope for improvement.

Gone the wrong way since a fairly promising start in a valuable Chester seller. Handicapper has at least offered some reprieve ahead of this first try over 1m.

Showed nothing in a trio of sprint events. Gelded/attracted good support from double-figure odds prior to again finishing well beaten on nursery bow at Leicester (7f). Now tried over an extra furlong (does have plenty of stamina in his pedigree).

Half-sister to useful 2-y-o 6f/7f winner Cowardofthecounty. Has offered little in 3 runs around 7f to date. Excellent yard 3-8 with nursery debutants this season, and she could well show more over a slightly longer trip here.

Forecasts

Forest Berry (4/5), Bluestone Lady (7/1), Le Grand Etoile (7/1), Astral Calling (17/2), The Resdev Rocket (11/1), Bonjour Belle (12/1), Rule Of The Agency (18/1)

Verdict

Sir Mark Prescott has a good record in nurseries at this track and his FOREST BERRY looks well capable of defying a penalty. Course winner Bluestone Lady could be the one to follow her home.
