13.10 Goodwood

First up we have the British Stallion Studs EBF Fillies’ Handicap over 1m 1f and Waliyak has shown plenty of Promise in her 4 runs placing in all of these. She was a winner last season at Wolverhampton and delivered a big run in the Sandringham Stakes at Ascot last time out. Connections are trying a new distance today and I feel she will still progress here and will be one to watch. Nkosikazi is top weight and going for a hat trick after winning at Redcar and Newcastle and so merits respect. Be More was a three-time winner last season and won at Sandown earlier this month and could take advantage of a good draw (2). But LAKE LUCERNE’s, for John Gosden and Frankie Dettori, run last time out at York was a lot better suggested than her finish. She is a lightly raced 3 year old and can take advantage of 8st 12lbs. A weight you won’t see often for Frankie Dettori, who should progress further on her handicap debut. I will take the chance with her and I think she can improve here and overcome her greenness. Ghaziyah returns to the track after nearly 300 days off and will be looking to go well on her return.

 

13.45 Goodwood

In the Unibet You’re On Goodwood Handicap over 2m 4f 134y my pick is OLEG E/W  who is an impressive hurdler and chaser who’s won both starts this season in handicaps at Southwell and Pontefract last time out 49 days ago. Both wins were for the trainers daughter Megan Nicholls but father Paul has picked Hollie Doyle to mount a challenge for him. This race is tougher and he is up 3lb but he won’t be one to discount and I like his chances. True Destiny placed in this race last year and was third when last seen at Newbury in the Marsh Cup so he is another to consider for an each-way bet. Summer Moon was a good 3^rd in the Ascot Stakes but was poor when last seen in the Coral Henry II stakes, he will look to improve here and try and get the better of the winner of the Ascot Stakes Coeur de Lion. The Alan King trained horse was an impressive winner there and Jockey Thore Hammer Hansen is claiming 3lbs and connections are retaining headgear so with that they can’t be discounted here. Rochester House will be looking to improve again after finishing 5^th in the Marsh Cup and will be looking to claim a place. Smart Champion and last year’s runner up Seinesational will be ones to check in the market.

 

14.15 Goodwood

A STAR ABOVE E/W is improving all the time after winning at Thirsk back in June and then followed that victory up at Leicester 22 days ago and I feel he can improve again and he has strong claims for a hat trick as he likes this distance and could get Hollie Doyle a quickfire double. Carlos Felix won well at Ascot 18 days ago and has shown improvement but this is tougher and can still have a say. Win O’ clock is stepping back up in trip and will be looking to continue his winning run after winning last time out at Leicester 22 days ago. Jockey Thomas Greatrex has claimed 3lbs to help his challenge. Encipher was a winner over 7f at Newbury last season but hasn’t followed that up but remains one to watch now handicapping. Glenties is another who will have more to offer over this trip in the Unibet 3 Boosts A day Handicap over 1m 3f 218y.

 

14.45 Goodwood

SIGNIFICANTLY, for Ben Curtis and trainer Karl Burke has been so unlucky in trying to break his maiden but delivered his best performance last time out at Sandown and sets the standard here. With Draw 1 I feel he can set the tone and pace and another big plus here is Karl Burke won this race in 2017 and has a very good chance here. Sardinia Sunset has been promising this season after placing 4^th in the Queen Mary at Ascot and winning when last seen at York and can be a contender. Army Of India drops back down in trip and will look to have claims. Chief Little Hawk for Aiden O’ Brien merits respect. Night On Earth has a good E/W shout and will be looking to follow up his success at Windsor here. So my tip in the Markel Insurance Molecomb Stakes (Group 3) is SIGNIFICANTLY.

 

15.15 Goodwood

This is potentially the biggest race of the season, the Qatar Sussex Stakes, and every horse in this race is a world-class horse and whoever wins this is at the top off their game and my selection is KAMEKO. The winner of the 2000 Guineas and still managed a good finish in the Derby although he went off as favourite. He is stepping down in trip and I expect a big run from him and he is a big player for this race. Mohaather is a low mileage horse who was seventh in the Queen Anne but came back from that to win the summer Mile Stakes. I feel he can progress and doesn’t have bad draw to deal with (4). Wichita can be in the mix here after coming second to KAMEKO in the 2000 Guineas by a neck and was in similar form when 3^rd in the St James’s Palace at Royal Ascot and should go well again here. He would be my outside selection.

 

15.45 Goodwood

SPRIGHT in the British Stallion Studs Alice Kepler EBF Fillies’ Conditions Stakes (Plus 10/GBB Race) over 5f ticks the boxes for me here. She was a winner over 6f at York when last seen 10 days ago and placed over 6f on her debut at Doncaster. She is Stepping Down in trip and is the leading player for me. Miss Jingles will look to progress again and should be in the mix again over 5f. These two are the pick of the horses here but SPRIGHT should have the pace for this and could get Karl Burke a double here today.

 

16.20 Goodwood

In the last race of the day, the Theo Fennell Handicap over 7f the current market favourite is Society Lion who will be looking to land this success for Sir Michael Stoute and Ryan Moore after winning on his second start at Yarmouth last season. He had a near-miss when second last time out at Doncaster earlier this month. He has a wide draw to deal with and could be difficult for him here. With some bookies paying up to 6 places I am going for an E/W tip and my selection is TORO STRIKE who has improved nicely this season, has run well here over C&D in the past.  He is an interesting selection and with Oisin Murphy booked he will be one to watch in the market. Mister Snowdon is another to watch out for at 10/1. Same with Verboten and Zhui Feng is a course winner here and has a low draw. He is hard to fancy but with Jim Crowley on board he could be one to watch in the market. Mountain Brave can be a danger here if she can navigate a tough draw. Dirty Rascal won this race last year on the same mark he on for this (9st 7lbs) and has a low draw and can go well again. He is with a different yard this year (now with Tom Ward) last year was with Richard Hannon.
