Second victory of the year for Trip To Paris!

Trip To Paris notched his second victory of the month when scooting clear of a competitive field at Ripon on Saturday.

Racing from a 4lb higher mark than when successful at Lingfield two weeks ago, and tackling 2m for the first time, Paris sat towards the rear of the of the nine-runner field in the early stages before making stealthy headway entering the straight.

Given a squeeze by jockey Graham Lee, the response was immediate and Paris swooped past his toiling rivals over a furlong out, only needing to be pushed out hands and heels to score by three and three-quarter lengths.

A horse with plenty of speed who clearly has stamina in abundance too, Paris continues on a steep upward trajectory and we are fortunate to have plenty of future options given his versatility. He remains engaged in the Chester Cup, where he would carry a 3lb penalty, and we will now give that race strong consideration after such a taking performance at the weekend.

Congratulations once again to all of the La Grange Partnership – we hope there are plenty more moments of celebration still to come!
