Droopys Electric…shock exit !!

My ante post bet on Droopys at 20/1 didn’t get past the first round proper with a shock defeat whilst 10/1 favourite to win the competition. The connections must have been disappointed; but there is always other good races to be won.

I have been following the heats closely and I have a few dogs that could be classed at this stage as Significant Improvers. Take note:
12/1 Si Senor 59/07
66/1 Lefanta April 59/23
6/1 Bar The Devil 59/23(Kieron Fallon’s Dog)
40/1 Barlyhoe Marble 59/27
50/1 Antrim Classic 59/51

And last, but not least, last years winner : He Said So, has done a category 59/45 but we know from last years performance that he is capable of 58/73. It is no wonder he is 4/1 favourite now to win the Derby again.

There could be some value in taking a chance with some of the bigger prices…I might do that.

I’ve bet Catunda Francie at 100/1; but with a rating of 60/56 it will have to improve a great deal to win this – but you never know with dog racing; anything can happen!

Come racing!!
