Drop Anchor sinks punters
Drop Anchor caused a 25/1 shock in the first division of the three mile maiden hurdle at Bellewstown. Thu 26th Aug
After race at Kilbeggan Fri, 22nd Aug, 2014 (1st)
We nearly gave up on him at the end of last year. We were clearing a few out of the yard and he was top of the list. He was a ten year old rising eleven and he had only won one moderate maiden.

After race at Roscommon Tue, 5th Aug, 2014 (1st)
I didn't have a shilling on him. I haven't had a run into him since last November, I knew he was fit but I had nothing for him all summer. Usually you'd need the run no matter how fit you'd have them at home. I thought he would run into a place at best. He might go to Kilbeggan now for a three mile race. He is eleven years of age so the ease in the ground probably helped him.

After race at Bellewstown Thu, 26th Aug, 2010 (1st)
He runs a bit green for a horse that has run so often. He ran in snatches today but is a good jumper. I might go to England with him. He needs good ground. Perth in September could be an option.
