Michael Bell Stable Tour

Form profile

Winner of three of her 7 starts and currently rated 97. Finished runner-up, beaten four lengths, to Mashael in a listed contest at Compeigne (1m 2f) on her final start last October.

Trainer says

She runs in the mile and a half listed race at Pontefract at the weekend. She won at Pontefract last year and was very progressive throughout the season and we are very much looking forward to getting her going. I very much hope that she will be able to get some winning black type.

Form profile

Winner of one of his 6 starts and currently rated 108. One of his best efforts when finishing third, beaten four and three quarter lengths, to Japan in the Group 2 King Edward VII Stakes at Royal Ascot (1m 4f) last June.

Trainer says

He starts off in the Hardwicke Stakes at Royal Ascot and ran an excellent race in the King Edward VII last year. The plan is to go straight to Royal Ascot without a run. We have taken a view that Ascot comes around very quick and he isn’t a horse that bounces out of his races that well. We know he is effective at the track and we thought we give that a rattle.

Form profile

Winner of seven of her 27 starts and currently rated 85. Gained her last success at Sandown (1m 2f) in August when beating Geranium a length and a half off a mark of 77.

Trainer says

She has been around for sometime but she has won a stack of races for us. She runs at Chelmsford on Monday and hopefully she will have another productive campaign.

Form profile

Winner of one of his 2 starts and currently rated 80. Last seen out when getting off the mark at Musselburgh (1m 1f) in October 2017 when beating Lynwood Gold five lengths.

Trainer says

He is a bit of a dark horse and he has been off the track since he was a two-year-old after suffering a nasty leg injury. The owner has been very patient and he has been working well. He looked a very exciting horse when he won his maiden and like all these things it’s a bit of an eggshells job but he does seems in very good form. He will run somewhere this week.

Form profile

Winner of one of his 2 starts. Pulled up in a novice event at Wolverhampton (7f) in May of last year on only start last season.

Trainer says

He hasn’t been seen since he hurt his pelvis when he last ran just over a year ago. He has been training well but it is going to be very hard for him carrying his penalty in a novice. Hopefully, he will be an above average handicapper over a mile.

Form profile

Promise in all three starts and currently rated 75. Finished creditable third, beaten a length, to Guipure in a handicap at Newcastle (1m) last week off his current mark.

Trainer says

He ran a pleasing race on his comeback run at Newcastle and it looked as though he was going to come and pose a serious threat and he just faded into third in the last half furlong. He probably just needed it and I am sure that he will build on that.

Form profile

Winner of three of his 7 starts and currently rated 78. Gained his last win at Beverley (5f) in August when beating Tom Tulliver a neck off a mark of 76.

Trainer says

He had an excellent first season when winning three nurseries and he is in good form. He runs at Pontefract on Wednesday. He will start off ovcer six furlongs and he was always just getting there over five last year.

Form profile

Winner of one of her 5 starts and currently rated 67. Finished runner-up, beaten two and a half lengths, to Buy Me Back on her reappearance at Kemptoon (6f) in March off a mark of 66.

Trainer says

She was our last runner before we went into lockdown when she finished second at Kempton. She is a progressive sprinting type and it’s just hard to get her into a race at the moment with her rating. She is real good fun filly who is owned by some people who have had horses with me for years and been very lucky.

Form profile

Winner of one of his 5 starts and currently rated 81. Finished ninth, beaten six and a half lengths, to Atheeb in a handicap at Lingfield (1m) on Sunday off his current mark.

Trainer says

He is a very handsome horse who won well at Nottingham last year then ran well behind a decent horse of David Elsworth’s at Newmarket. He probably wasn’t suited by the track at Lingfield and they went very quick and it suited the closers. He is a good solid handicapper who, god willing, will more than pay his way.

Form profile

Winner of one of her 4 starts and currently rated 77. Off the mark when short heading Festival Day in a novice event at Goodwood (7f) in September.

Trainer says

She won a maiden at Goodwood last year and then disappointed at Newmarket. She run at Chelmsford tomorrow and has definitely trained on.

Form profile

Unraced colt.

Trainer says

He is a very nice maiden we have by Kingman out of Bark and he was due to run at Kempton last week but was in the stalls for a long time and got restless. He had to be withdrawn which put a spanner in our planning work but hopefully he can do a stall text this week and then we can run him in a maiden at the end of the week. He is in excellent form and is a horse we like.

Form profile

Better of her two efforts when runner-up, beaten half a length, to No Nay Bella on her debut at Kempton (1m) in February.

Trainer says

She ran a very good race on her debut at Kempton when finishing second and then disappointed on her next start when I thought she would win. She came back with a sore knee and we have just had to give her time. I am hopeful that she could be a nice filly. She is by a fantastic sire in Frankel.

Form profile

Unplaced in both of his starts. Well beaten on his reappearance in the Listed Newmarket Stakes won by Mishriff at Newmarket (1m 2f) on Saturday.

Trainer says

His performance on Saturday at Newmarket was a complete headscratcher and he was never at the races. We will look towards finding another race for him when we are confident he will perform well.

Form profile

Much improved effort on her reappearance in the Listed Oaks Trial at Lingfield (1m 3 1/2f) on Saturday when fourth, beaten two lengths, to Miss Yoda.

Trainer says

She ran a particularly good race in the Oaks Trial at Lingfield and probably showed a little inexperience in the last furlong which cost her a place. She is a progressive filly with, hopefully, a bright future. We will probably go for a maiden with her now before stepping her back up in class.

Form profile

Unraced colt.

Trainer says

He is a half brother to Big Orange who had an interrupted training programme last year but he has come back in an looks fantastic. He is a very handsome horse and we are really looking forward to getting him going. He very much looks the part.

Form profile

Winner of one of his 4 starts and currently rated 100. Made a winning debut at Yarmouth (6f) in May of last year when beating Path Of Thunder a neck.

Trainer says

He won’t be seen until later in the year as he had quite a nasty health issue but he seems bouncing back now. It’s a shame as he would have been an ideal type for a race like the Jersey Stakes. His season will be delayed but given the circumstances it’s not a bad thing.

Form profile

Finished sixth, beaten 11 lengths, to Valyrian Steel on his debut at Newcastle (1m 2f) this month.

Trainer says

Mister Blue ran a pleasing race on his debut at Newcastle earlier in the month and he will be seen to better effect over further in time. He is a decent staying handicapper in the making.

Form profile

Finished fifth, beaten four and a half lengths, to Spring of Love in a maiden at Newmarket (7f) in October on her only start to date.

Trainer says

She ran a very nice race on her only start at Newmarket last year. We are desperate to get her into a race but she keeps getting balloted out. Hopefully, she will get in somewhere sooner than later.

Form profile

Winner of one of his 2 starts. Off the mark at Chelmsford (1m) in November when scoring by a head from Al Qaqaa.

Trainer says

He won his maiden last year and he has just come back in after the owners gave him a break as there was no racing. He is not quite ready yet but he will be moving into fast work and will be ready to run in two to three weeks. He looks a classy horse.

Form profile

Winner of two of his 8 starts and currently rated 94. Finished eighth, beaten nine and a quarter lengths, to Smokey Bear at Newmarket (6f) in Saturday off his current mark.

Trainer says

He ran a pleasing race at Newmarket on Saturday and it looks as though a step up to seven furlongs will suit him.

Form profile

Promise in both start and finished third, beaten three quarters of a length, to Lady Lynetta on her second start at Newmarket (7f) in September.

Trainer says

She ran well in both starts last year and she is on the cusp of being ready to run. She looks to have trained on and, hopefully, won’t have any difficulty getting a bracket or two.

Form profile

Finished ninth, beaten six and a quarter lengths, to White Moonlight on her only start at Kempton (7f) in September.

Trainer says

She was very disappointing when she ran last year but she has definitely seems to have strengthened up from two to three. She is a filly I think has a bit of a future.

Form profile

Better effort on her debut at Haydock (7f) in May when fourth, beaten a length and a half, to Rhea.

Trainer says

She ran a very good race on her debut at Haydock then was pitched into the Chesham where she found it all too much. She is due to run at Newmarket on Sunday then after that she will have her mark and I think she is a filly to follow as the season progresses.
