Droopys Bear’s price for the next week’s Ladbrokes Golden Jacket tumbled after an impressive performance in the top division of a trial stake over 714 metres at Crayford last night.

Dean Child’s runner flew out of the boxes and clocked a flying 22.98sec on the first lap before beating Wiki Waki Woo by almost three lengths in a fast 44.93sec

Wayne Wrighting’s Woodmancote Bert came through strongly at the penultimate turn in division two to account for the rallying long-time leader Fivestar Clipper by a neck in 45.42sec.

Jason Foster’s hot favourite Market Heights gave supporters plenty of anxious moments before getting up close home in division three to account for Three Star Queen in 45.79sec.

Droopys Marion came from last to first in the fourth division to beat Janoan by two lengths in 45.85sec.
