NORMAN MELBOURNE

SHEFFIELD staged their second consecutive batch of Tuesday opens following a short break and local handler Norman Melbourne took three of the five on offer for a 32-1 treble.

First up was 9-4 chance Jaxx Teller (Tullymurry Act-Best Special, Nov 14) who bounced back from eight straight defeats with a 29.33 (-50) run for 500m.

Leg two came up in the bitch’s 480m contest courtesy of 4-1 shot Yahoo Benny (Mall Brandy-Calzaghe Pearl, Aug 14) with a 28.34 (-50) run.

The pick of the trio though was probably evens favourite Droopys Podge (Ballymac Eske-Droopys Hilda, Sep 15) who made it 5:10 with a 28.52 (-50) run in a 480m puppy open.

He went from trap one . . .
