Droopys Country and Droopys Trapeze among best bets for Belle Vue

Droopys Trapeze showed bundles of early pace to produce a lightning 4.20 sectional and make all to score easily in a time of 27.55.

It was a most taking performance which showed he is clearly right at the top of his game at present.

He also wasn’t stopping at the finish and, with T1 Bubbly Zeus a possible hazard for Hiya Butt to overcome as he has a tendency to move off at the first bend, Droopys Trapeze looks nicely drawn to ping out and register another success.

Pinpoint Den worth a punt

T4 Pinpoint Den is a class act when getting loose on the bunny and looks worth a punt at the odds on offer in the third semi-final of the RPGTV Laurels (20:42).

Kelly Macari’s dog showed what he is capable of when flashing from the lids to land an all the way three length success over Tynwald Baz in the final of the Steel City Cup at Sheffield.

He has since had just three competitive starts and was impressive in the second of those, when very quickly away and making all to beat Shaneboy Freddie by 3 1/4 lengths in the Terry Meynell Memorial Trophy at Newcastle.

Although only third in last week’s heats behind the re-opposing T6 Corrin Boyshane, the son of Zero Ten looked a bit ring rusty and looks sure to come on for that run.

Pinpoint Den should also get plenty of space in which to operate, from what looks a handy middle draw and, if turning in front, is going to take some pegging back.

Droopys Two value in Oaks semi-final

In the second semi-final of the RPGTV Oaks (21:32), T6 Droopys Two looks cracking value to land the spoils.

Dean Childs’ bitch caught the eye in the first round when missing the break before staying on well to finish third to the very smart Forest Twilight.

She was once again slowly away in the second round last week, before showing terrific gears in the middle of the race to lead on the run-in and win going away by 1 1/4 lengths at the line.

It was a terrific effort given how the race panned out, and Droopys Two is surely capable of trapping in better fashion.

If she can, then as the sole wide side she holds every chance of turning in a handy pitch and, with the possibility of scrimmaging on the inside, is going to be tough to contain if within striking distance turning for home.
