It’s A Bitter – Sweet Win For Owner Dave!
THURSDAY HOVE REPORT
Thursday 16th November 2017 – HOVE Report
WINNER
Naturally delighted by the win of Front Step Dave Staddon was equally saddened to see Droopys Tequila, who he part owns with Trevor Cooper and Ray Wheeler, finish lame in the A9 at 7-01. Beaten five lengths by Forever Mick on her latest run FRONT STEP was sent off a 5/1 chance and although she suffered crowding the January 15 daughter of Ballymac Eske led on the run-in to beat the Jason Heath trained Sainte Baby by 1/2 a length! Owned by Dave Staddon Front Step clocked 30.98 (-30) 30.68 calculated when winning for the 7th time at Hove! Finishing in 5th place behind Aero Synergy last time DROOPYS TEQUILA was a 7/2 chance but sadly the September 13 daughter of Droopys Scolari checked on the run-up and finished the race lame.

How Our Other Runners Fared
Beaten just over four lengths by Only Dreaming last time out DATA OLLY was a 5/2 chance down in grade for the A11 at 6-28. Slow away and crowded at the 3rd bend the June 13 son of Head Bound clocked 31.80 (-30) 31.50 calculated when finishing in 5th place beaten four lengths by Coltwood Star who is trained by Ken Tester.
FANORE FLYER held off a late challenge from Imaginary Impact to win by a head at the end of October and he was a decent 3rd behind Stellars Avenger last time. Up in class for the DOWNLOAD THE CORAL APP SPRINT Open race at 6-44 the April 15 son of Vans Escalade was sent off a 6/1 chance. Crowded at 1/2 way he finished in 6th place clocking 16.95 (-15) 16.80 calculated when beaten seven and a half lengths by the Seamus Cahill trained winner Droopys Perfect.
DROOPYS ROXY was 4th beaten five and a half lengths by Imfootballblue on her latest outing and the September 15 daughter of Tullymurry Act was made a 7/2 chance for the A7 at 7-32. Despite suffering crowding at the 4th bend she kept on well to finish in 2nd place clocking 30.82 (-20) 30.62 calculated when beaten just 1/2 a length by Swift Savanna who is trained by Ken Tester.
After successive D1 wins where he beat Glencroft Rumble by a ‘head’ and ‘dead-heaters’ Glencroft Rumble and Lundy Lane by just over a length SIZZLERSCHEYENNE had deserved his chance back in Open company! Unfortunately it was not his night and ‘held up’ at every bend in the VISIT CORAL.CO.UK. 475 Open race at 8-52 our 20/1 shot finished in 6th place! Clocking 28.67 (-20) 28.47 calculated the August 12 son of Hondo Black was beaten just under eight lengths by the Paul Young trained winner Droopys Conor.
