Raced keenly, chased leaders on outside, went 2nd halfway, hung left over 1f out, shaken up and lost 2nd inside final furlong, no extra in 3rd tchd 6/4
Gordonstoun (11/8), Tenth Century (2/1), Risque (7/2), Tempah (12/1), Paco Loco (12/1), The Good Ting (16/1), Social Rebel (16/1)
The benefit of experience can see RISQUE put a slightly disappointing debut behind her to take the opening two-year-old novice event for Richard Hannon. The selection looks capable of getting the better of Gordonstoun who hails from a yard who won with their first juvenile runner of the season recently while third place can go Tenth Century who is related to a number of winners.
