Ripon Race 1 - British Stallion Studs Ebf Novice Stakes (Gbb Race)
FANTASY FORCE (2) sets the standard after a debut 3rd at York over 1005m, beaten 4.5L in a Class 2, and draws well again. DUBAI CHAMPION (1) was 4th in the same York race, and can improve. SPECTACULAR DIVER (5) mixes a Pontefract 2nd over 1008m with a tougher York run and is in the mix. CALEF (6) was 4th of 4 at Carlisle on soft and needs to lift. The newcomers SOCIAL SYMBOL (3), SOLE RULER (4) and HIDDEN GIFT (7) add depth.
