Droopys Pride well drawn in The Sheffield Stadium Standard – Duplicated
The draw is a huge plus for Droopys Pride in the Sheffield Stadium Standard – Duplicated on Tuesday. As per the betting forecast, the black dog is carrying the second best odds after Fire Height Spec, who took a good win at Belle Vue recently.
To us, Droopys Pride’s chances are brighter than the 13-8 favourite, because he is better drawn. Standing in the red box, E. Parker’s trainee is having a great opportunity to establish his dominance in the beginning. And if he succeeds in doing so, it will
certainly help him stay ahead throughout.
The son of Blackstone Gene, out of Exiles Pride, has already beaten Fire Height Spec over 480 metres. So, he holds a psychological edge as well. His current form is also quite impressive. Ahead of missing the crown only by one and a quarter lengths, the
2-year-old sealed a couple of comprehensive victories here.
He put his journey on the winning ways at the end of last month, when taking a convincing 1-length victory despite getting crowded in the begging. Today’s favourable draw will help him avoid any mess.
Improving all the time, Fire Height Spec is unlikely to prove an easy rival. After running well in the trials, he resumed his Sheffield journey on November 4th, when finishing second to Droopys Pride. The white and black dog quickly raised his
game to secure a fascinating triumph at Belle Vue last time.
Running from the first box, he captured the first place comfortably by four lengths. He did the trick despite getting bumped early on. B. Draper’s charge is in great momentum following a big win, but we are unsure whether he will be able to do the same at
Sheffield. Therefore, the preference is for Droopys Pride.
The competition is all about these two, but still the rest of the line-up cannot be ignored. Gurrane Rocke recently recorded a couple of eye-catching trial times. Barnish Phil, the Doncaster raider, is unlikely to show any fight, as he is in bad form these
days.
Paradise Aruba might be a little rusty, but up to it at very best. Trickys On Fire knows how to win here, but a very stiff task is waiting for him. The £200-for-winner event is due to get started at 19:58 GMT.
