Stratford Avon Race 7 - Family Day On Sunday 12Th July Open Maiden NH Flat Race (GBB Race)
LIGHTSOUTANDAWAY (1) will have taken plenty from his racecourse debut only eleven days ago when a keeping on fourth at Fontwell (3500m). Sure to make a challenge. SCOTTO (2) looks a likely chance on paper for the James Owen stable. Top jockey booked and bound to have been well schooled for this first outing. MAC'S MAX (4) showed ability across two runs last winter under this jockey. Second beaten 2.25L on the first occasion however didn't really progress next time. Improvement possible. BOUND FOR GLORY (3) finished fourth attempting a pair of jumpers flat races to date. Needs more to trouble the principals but shouldn't be too far away.

Resuming after a break; having raced just once last preparation ran last at Warwick on February 20 over 3200m, slow track; 110 len behind Burds Of A Feather with 71kg at $26. When resuming last campaign made ground from midfield; finished 15th of 17 starters at Aintree on May 16 over 3400m, 28 len behind Rebel Tribesman with 69.5kg at $7. This class tougher and others rate better.
