GLENPADDEN BOLT produced his best form since joining the Norah Mac kennel, from Sheffield trainer Barrie Draper, with a brilliant win in the Sittingbourne Mini Standard Open Race at Central Park last night! The May 2011 son of Droopys Scolari had competed at the top level in the north of England winning 7 times and he opened his account for his new kennel in devastating fashion. The Debbie Williams and Mick McCrory owned runner clocked the fastest time (27.17) over the 450 metre trip at Sittingbourne this year and was only seven spots off the track-record (27.10) set by Jacks Back in July 2010. It was a fantastic performance when you consider he was slow away and bumped at the first bend! Glenpadden Bolt took the lead at the third bend and went right away beating the Heather Dimmock trained Farley Champ by six and a half lengths!
