Ripon Race 7 - Watch Sky Sports Racing In HD Handicap
KOFFEE AND KALE (2) Back from a 28 week break. Fought on well to win a tight contest by a nose last time at Leicester and will try to take advantage of the draw. Suitably placed in this race. ARISHKA'S DREAM (5) Close to claiming the win last run at Newcastle and drops back to a suitable class. Displays good tactical speed. Going well this preparation. No shock to see a win. BLUE NGURU (6) Back from a break. Ran on strongly to win last run at Lingfield and matched against less formidable competition. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Has to be included. VENCEDORA (4) Below par performance when 5th last time at Southwell but will find this grade more suitable. Shows good early pace. Solid career start. Well placed and has solid claims.

First up after a break of 30 weeks. Ran over the top of them when winning last run at Southwell but has to cope with a weight increase. Can't leave out of your calculations.

Resuming from a break of 28 weeks. Was fighting out the finish when winning by a nose last time at Leicester and has a positive draw. Expecting to settle positively. Gets a chance against these.

Odds of $15.00 and came in 5th last run at Kempton but matched against lesser competition. Likely to get back in the run. Prefer in a much weaker race.

Started $7.00 and only fair when 5th last time at Southwell but lining up against easier rivals. Should muster plenty of early toe. Will appreciate a good stall. Definite claims.

Narrowly denied a win last run at Newcastle and competing in a lower grade. Should jump out and bowl along. In fine form since coming back from a spell. Very capable of taking this out.

First run back from a break. Charged home to win last run at Lingfield and facing a weaker grade. Should be going forward early. Promising career start. Rates as one of the key chances.

At $7.50 clearly outclassed when 8th last time at Beverley but matched against a less competitive field. Down in trip. Not likely to be troubling the more fancied runners today.
