Hove Bags Race 5 - Coral 500 Maidens Trophy - Heat 1
BEACHY BULLET (4) followed a unplaced effort at this track two back with a sound third, beaten 11 lengths, last start in a OR at this track over 500m (29.80). Top chance to find winning form this far easier line-up. DROOPYS DELUX (1) was in the minor money with a swift 29.96, finishing second in an A2 at this track last start. Harder here but will be in this for a long way. RORY THE ARB (5) followed a minor placing two runs ago with a plain effort last time to finish fifth, beaten 5 lengths, in a OR at this track over 500m (29.80). Easier here and no surprise to see him back in form. DROOPYS DRAFT (6) is a newcomer from the J Campbell kennel. Market to provide the best guide to his chances.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to finish second over 500m at this track. The recent effort suggests he is ready to win.

Finished fifth two starts ago then regained form last time out when he found a couple better over 500m in a OR at this track. Racing well enough to fully test this line-up.
