Saturday 2nd December 2017  –  HOVE Report

WINNER

She is so often the ‘Bridesmaid’, finishing second or third in nine of her races at Hove, but DROOPYS ROXY finally got off the mark on her 15th attempt! Beaten just 1/2 a length by Swift Savanna when 2nd on her latest run the September 15 daughter of Tullymurry Act was made 5/2 co-favourite for the A7 at 9-57. Despite making a slow start and suffering 1st bend crowding she ran on well to beat the Wayne Wrighting trained Imfootballcrazy by two lengths! Owned by Mr A. Banks, Mr D. Franklin, Mr D. Gray and Norah McEllistrim ‘Droopys Roxy’ clocked 30.68 (Normal) when winning for the first time at Hove! Kennel mate ROSEGARLAND MOJO was also a 5/2 co-favourite and the November 15 daughter of Scolari Me Daddy led from the 3rd bend to the run-in! Clocking 30.87 (Normal) she finished in 3rd place beaten just over two lengths by the winner.

How Our Other Runners Fared

RACENIGHT DUKE was a 7/2 chance for the A9 at 7-46 where the August 13 son of Head Bound was crowded at the start! Running on well he finished in 2nd place clocking 31.08 (Normal) when beaten just over a length by Abbodabbo Darlin who is trained by Maria Collins. A 9/2 chance kennel mate ASSERT was slow away and baulked at the 4th bend! Clocking 31.39 (Normal) the July 14 son of Skywalker Ace finished in 5th place beaten just over five lengths by the winner.

FANORE FLYER was the 5/2 joint-favourite for the D1 Sprint at 8-02 but the April 15 son of Vans Escalade suffered crowding at the 2nd bend! Finishing in 4th place he clocked 16.72 (Normal) when beaten six lengths by the Derek Knight trained winner Candolim Folly.

A 9/4 fancy for the A11 at 8-18 TIMBERLEE LASS was held up in her run! Crowded at the 1/4 mark and baulked at 1/2 way the April 14 daughter of Blackstone Gene clocked 31.57 (Normal) when finishing in 5th place beaten just under five lengths by Merc Challenger who is trained by Jamie Kingsley.

FOREVER MICK was sent off the 2/1 favourite for the A8 at 8-51 and the June 15 son of Tullymurry Act can be counted an unlucky loser!
