Bell set to have a ball (From The Northern Echo)

Bell set to have a ball (From The Northern Echo):

"MICHAEL Bell has enjoyed a stellar year thanks to the exploits of Sariska and can score with another decent filly in L’Enchanteresse at Chepstow. The Newmarket handler thinks a fair bit of this juvenile, who has already shown enough in two starts to date to suggest she is well up to winning a race of the nature of the Lindley Catering Median Auction Maiden Fillies’ Stakes.

Having finished third on her debut, form which was boosted the other day by Water Biscuit’s success at Goodwood, she was unfortunate to bump into a tartar on her next start.
Prominent throughout in a six-furlong maiden at York, she was no match for Rodrigo De Torres, who looks booked for Pattern races.

There was no disgrace in that and this drop down to five furlongs should not be an inconvenience as she is by Nunthorpe winner Kyllachy. Bell gave her an entry in the Cheveley Park Stakes and while that may be aiming a bit high, it goes to show the regard in which she is held."
