Stratford Avon Race 3 - Edward Abell Memorial Mares' Handicap Hurdle
This represents a sizeable drop in grade for GREYVAL (2). Can return to winning ways and the Fergal O'Brien trained mare brings some smart hurdle form. Ready to strike after finishing a good fourth among Class Two company at Market Rasen. IP UP (1) disappointed tackling fences at Hexham. May give a good account racing off the same mark as when runner-up in a Class Three at Fakenham during March. STRONG BELLE (3) pulled-up at Kelso in May. Retains potential for a yard maintaining top form. IT'S EASY (5) heads the remainder.
