Dreaming over as reality dawns for connections
As is the case every year, one has to rely on what one has seen to form an opinion and those who were privileged to see Droopys Caesar win his Trial Stake at Glanworth could only form the opinion that here was a very serious Derby contender and one likely to have a big say in the destination of the dog classic. He is drawn in the fourth quarter where he faces Anvil Point in the opening round and should advance to meet the Kilmeedy Matt next time up.
However his biggest task could come in a possible quarter final meeting with Trajectory. The Corn na Féile winner will be confidently expected to advance from the bottom of this sector.
