Thirsk Race 2

Sky Bet For The Fans Ebf Novice Stakes (Gbb Race)

Prize Money: $20,295

BLESSED VOYAGER (1) aims to remain unbeaten after getting off the mark at the first time of asking scoring by a head contesting a maiden at Newbury during April. Interesting following a break racing first-up as a gelding. STATTEN ISLAND (5) was fourth on debut in a novice race at the York Dante Festival then filled the same spot next time out in a maiden at Ayr last month. Will be thereabouts. BLAKEY RIDGE (2) placed a respectable third making first career appearance in a novice race at Carlisle. Expected to challenge. ROMAN CRYSTAL (8) cannot be discounted down in grade having finished seventh in a novice race at Chester.

Jumped at long odds at debut, got back early 6th of 8 at Salisbury on June 30 over 1400m, 22 len behind Breacher with 60.5kg at $26. Don't think he will trouble this field.
