Ripon Race 2 - Paul Hammond Associates Celebrating Yorkshire Spoon EBF Fillies' Novice Stakes (GBB Race)
THE CAN CAN QUEEN (7) did best of those with experience when 5th of 11 at Beverley over 5f, beaten 5.95L, and can progress up to 6f. BAI TONG (1) started odds-on on debut at Thirsk but was 5th of 6, beaten 5.5L; fitter now and drawn to get her chance. CHEEKY CHESCA (2) was 5th of 9 at Redcar over 5f, beaten 5.1L after settling back, and the extra trip could help. CRIMSON BLAZE (3) wasn’t far away on debut at Wolverhampton before a forgive run at Southwell and is another for exotics. Unraced EEVEE STAR (4) adds interest in a modest-looking field.
