Welcome to Day Two of our June Double Header. We would like to extend a very warm welcome to all our corporate guests and their clients who have joined us on this glorious summer evening
Tonight, we are also proud to support and promote syndicate racehorse ownership. Building on the success of previous initiatives, the Racehorse Owners Association (ROA) and the Racehorse Syndicates Association (RSA) have established a programme of activities in partnership with racecourses across England, Scotland and Wales to showcase the many benefits of shared ownership.
Throughout the evening, syndicates and racing clubs will be available to discuss their ownership opportunities, alongside shared ownership presentations. These activities offer racegoers a unique behind-the-scenes insight into the excitement and rewards of racehorse ownership. If you would like to learn more about how syndicates and racing clubs operate, please take the opportunity to visit the stands and speak with the teams on course this evening
Looking ahead, our next two race meetings both take place on Sundays in July. On Sunday 12th July, we host our ever-popular Family Day, featuring a wide range of complimentary children's entertainment in the centre of the course, including Shetland pony racing, inflatables, and many other family-friendly activities.
The following Sunday, 19th July, promises to be a more glamorous occasion as we celebrate Ladies Day. There will be an array of fantastic prizes on offer, including a weekend racing break, a racing yard tour, , hat vouchers, and much more.
To book a Ladies Day package or reserve a table in one of our restaurants, please visit www.stratfordracecourse.net or contact Wendy on 01789 267949
We hope you all enjoy a wonderful evening of racing and wish you the very best of luck

HORSE WELFARE
“Racing’s top priority is the safety and welfare of horse and rider”. Like most sports racing carries risks, however, we work to make sure that no death or injury occurs, which could have been prevented. Here at Stratford Racecourse we are committed to minimising risks, dealing quickly and humanely with injuries, and maintaining the highest possible quality of life for the animals in our care. At every meeting we have two specially qualified Equine Vets appointed to look after the welfare of all horses in action There is also a British Horseracing Authority Vet in attendance. During the race two vets follow the action from the centre of the course and can attend to a horse in the same response time as the Paramedic Teams responsible for treating the injured jockeys. It is standard policy that in the event of a horse requiring veterinary treatment whilst on site, screens will be erected round the horse It is designed to afford the vet and the patient some privacy Please do not assume the worst.
EMERGENCY EVACUATION
In the event of an emergency all persons on the racecourse will be alerted by the following message over the public address system. This is an emergency announcement. Due to circumstances beyond our control, racing has been temporarily suspended Would all patrons please evacuate ALL buildings and make your way across the racetrack to the Red post marker in the Centre of the Course. Police and Racecourse Officials will assist and direct you. Please do not go to any Car Park until you are cleared to do so, because you may hamper the movement of emergency vehicles The message will then be repeated
BROKEN GLASSES AND BOTTLES
Broken glasses and bottles are dangerous. In the interests of safety and the comfort of others please do not carry drinks on to the steppings of the stand, or the areas adjacent to the parade ring or unsaddling enclosure
FLASH PHOTOGRAPHY

‘The Bardman' 4-year-old Bay Gelding Dam: Delta Forty Sire: Maxios
The ‘Maxios x’ youngster was brought by Charlie at the GOFFS IRE Arkle Sale in June 2025. He is an exciting prospect with impeccable breeding, he is out of established sire Maxios and out of Delta Forty, they have both proven lots of stamina and it’s the ideal blend for success over jumps. Since arriving with us as a 3-year-old he has always done everything right, he has already shown bags of scope in his early career and has taken to all his work nicely. He has been given the time to mature and grow as since he arrived, he hasn’t stopped growing!
He’s having a Summer Holiday and then we will aim to run him at the beginning of Autumn in season 26/27 where he will start in bumpers before working his way to hurdles. He will be a fantastic horse for Stratford Members.
From the moment a Thoroughbred is born they’re supported by a team of dedicated experts.
