Bartzella¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Tom Marquand| T: W J Haggas

1/5

Well-bred filly who made the perfect start in 9-runner maiden at Goodwood (9.9f, good to firm, 100/30) 17 days ago, well on top finish. More to come up in trip and hard to oppose for in-form yard.

Form: 1

Alice Kazeem³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: D Allan| T: Steph Hollinshead

200/1

80/1, last of 4 in maiden won by Mojo Star at Newbury (12f, good) on debut 30 days ago. Likely to need more time.

Form: 4

Cilka

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Barry McHugh| T: Adrian Nicholls

50/1

Mastercraftsman filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including smart winner up to 8.5f You're Fired and useful 2-y-o 6f winner Fleeting Prince. Dam 6f/7f winner. Faces a stiff introduction.

Quilted¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: D Tudhope| T: H & R Charlton

3/1

Twice-raced maiden. Off 11 months and 10/1, better when 6¼ lengths fifth of 9 to Bartzella in maiden at Goodwood (9.9f, good to firm) 17 days ago, still looking green. Up in trip. Forecast pick.

Form: 0-5

Titanium Moon²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: S H James| T: D Loughnane

33/1

Third of 6 in minor event (25/1) at Wolverhampton (12.2f) on debut 27 days ago, looking green. Should improve.

Form: 3

Forecasts

Bartzella (1/5), Quilted (3/1), Titanium Moon (33/1), Cilka (50/1), Alice Kazeem (200/1)

It's hard to oppose BARTZELLA who looked a good prospect when making a winning debut at Goodwood last month. This longer trip is sure to suit her and she can remain unbeaten. Old-rival Quilted looks the obvious forecast pick.
