Et Tu Brute²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Charles Bishop| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 81

15/2

Winner of 6f maiden at Chepstow and stepped up on that form on his nursery bow when fifth of 7 at Ascot (6f) 21 days ago. This longer trip isn't certain to suit though so others appeal more.

Form: 0125

Commonsensical¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-1| J: R Kingscote| T: Tom Dascombe| OR: 77| BF

7/2

Excellent runner-up in 7f Haydock novice but found conditions too sharp when running-on second at Chester 19 days ago. Capable of better and has got in lightly for nursery bow so most interesting.

Form: 522

Zoffarelli³³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-1| J: Tom Marquand| T: R M Beckett| OR: 77| BF

5/4

Runner-up in 6f Windsor novices both starts, 5/4 when just failing on latter occasion. Step up in trip will suit son of Zoffany so rates a player on his handicap debut for yard among the winners.

Form: 22

In Paradise¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-9| J: P Hanagan| T: R A Fahey| OR: 71| D

13/2

Best of her three runs when getting up late to land 7f nursery at Leicester 19 days ago. This is tougher though and 3 lb rise demands another chunk of improvement but she's progressive.

Form: 431

Forecasts

Zoffarelli (5/4), Last Sunset (5/2), Commonsensical (7/2), Lost In Space (9/2), In Paradise (13/2), Et Tu Brute (15/2)

COMMONSENSICAL is worth siding with as Tom Dascombe's colt looks to have got in lightly and is strongly fancied to leave his recent Chester form behind him now he encounters a stiffer stamina test. Fellow nursery debutant Zoffarelli is feared most with the step up to 7f sure to be to his benefit, while Lost In Space and Last Sunset are worth considering too in an intriguing nursery.
