Droopys English to make things interesting in the Coral Essex Vase - Heat 5 at Romford
The A. Gifkins-trained, Droopys English, would make the life of his opponents really tough, if he takes an early lead in the Coral Essex Vase - Heat 5, being held at Romford on Friday, November 30, 2012.
The 2-year-old is the most consistent hound around. On his previous three trips, the son of Blackstone Gene was runner-up. All he needs to thrive is an element of luck. After an easy 1?-length win here at the start of this month, luck started running away from him. On November 10th, he missed the gold only by a neck?s distance at Crayford.
Things kept going in an unlucky way, as he fell second just by a short head?s distance last time. His latest outing was quite impressive. Despite getting bumped at the very first bend, the dashing hound did not lose his pace. He railed nicely to stay in the front row, but remained slightly unlucky.
Having made four fine outings, Droopys English is all set to do something special. A few unlucky defeats would have given him a good lesson, and he is expected not to repeat mistakes. Only an extra push is required to unchain the shackles.
Other hounds in the pack are: Westmead Maldini, Rockview Sail, Brinkleys Ace, Star Cash Simon and Head Iton Tom. The 575 metres race is going to be kicked off at 21:06 GMT. The successful hound will leave the field with a handy prize of 175 pounds.
Head Iton Tom failed to recapture best form following a layoff. And we expect him to run poorly today. Westmead Maldini, the defending champion, can kick off his campaign on a winning note. But he surely needs to stay cautious of Droopys English. According to our calculations, this pair is likely to secure the top two positions.
Star Cash Simon must dig really deep when pressure mounts in the second half of the game. Rockview Sail would be a live threat on the 2011 Coronation Cup form. Brinkleys Ace is well equipped to take advantage of any inside crowding. Otherwise, his chances are slim.
