He finished 2nd beaten a ‘head’ by Ravenswood Marty five days later but the June 16 son of Droopys Jet got back to winning ways when leading near the line to beat Lenas Paddy by a head in another D1 Sprint at the end of August. Back up in trip for the 475 Metre HOVE MAIDEN Open race at 9-26 he was sent off the 7/4 second-favourite. Quick away ‘Olly’ always led when beating the Jason Heath trained Skippers Macey by a length and a half!

Kennel mate TOKYO JOE was a 12/1 shot but he was badly baulked at the 1st bend and clocked 28.62 (Normal) when finishing in 5th place beaten just under eight lengths by the winner.
