Elaine Parker’s Lightfoot King returned from a month’s absence with a brilliant trial at Doncaster on Monday night.
Beating Roxholme Ray by a shade over six lengths in 27.79 (-80) in their two dog workout, the calculated 26.99 is a good two lengths inside the 27.16 clock for 450m set by Droopys Country on Yorkshire Leger night in September 2016.
Hayley Keightley’s Scurry Cup winner Roxholme Hat posted an impressive 16.56 (calc) over 275m (TR 16.51) at the same session, comparing favourably with fellow kennel star’s Hiya Butt 16.80 recent open win over C&D.
