Crystal Lake followed up on his recent debut win at Kempton by running out an impressive winner, on handicap debut, at Ripon. Given a tactically astute ride by Richard Kingscote, the son of Verglas won with something in hand and looks one to keep on the right side of. Well done to connections.

Crsytal Lake (Verglas) kicked off our 2014 season in the best possible way when running out the convincing winner of the seven furlong maiden at Kempton today.

After recent rain in California, Rhagori had been unable to fit in the faster work that trainer Simon Callaghan had hoped for. With that in mind and with regular improvement expected, Rhagori could become a major force to be reckoned with in Southern California.
