Bartzella²¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Tom Marquand| T: W J Haggas| OR: 87| C| D

4/1

Well-bred filly who made the perfect start in a course maiden last summer and bounced back from a short-priced reversal at Thirsk when making all in Ascot in October. Major surprise if there isn't more to come.

Form: 131-

Crystal Starlet^t¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: J Ferguson| OR: 73| D

28/1

Off the mark in 7-runner Wolverhampton handicap over this trip 11 days ago, but will need a significant chunk of improvement if she's to get involved now stepping up markedly in class.

Form: 3544-51

Age: 5| Weight: 9-0| J: J P Spencer| T: D M Simcock| OR: 90| D

10/1

Progressive in handicaps in 2020, winning easily when stepped up to this trip on final start. Been off for 19 months but retains potential if her problems are behind her.

Glenartney¹⁷⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: R Coakley| T: E Walker| OR: 98

17/2

Made up into a useful performer last year. Only had 6 career starts so it's possible she could advance her form again this year.

Form: 61/5336-

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Ray Dawson| T: R Varian| OR: 100

10/3

Fourth in Oaks at Epsom before bagging third win of 2021 in listed race at Newmarket (cheekpieces on) in July. Disappointed in Park Hill at Doncaster on final start but claims on her best form. Headgear left off on return.

Forecasts

Silence Please (2/1), Save A Forest (10/3), Bartzella (4/1), Lady Hayes (15/2), Glenartney (17/2), Folk Dance (10/1), Crystal Starlet (28/1)

SILENCE PLEASE sets a clear standard on her placed efforts in pattern company in 2021 and gets the nod to make a winning start for new trainer Andrew Balding. Bartzella is a fascinating contender now stepping up in class on her reappearance and could be the one to give the selection most to think about ahead of Save A Forest.
