8
1st (8) Novus (7.5/1 +25%)
Novus

7.5
7.5/1(+25%)
(8) Novus 7.5/1, Built on the promise of her first 2 starts when winning 16-runner maiden at Newbury (6.5f, heavy) in October, benefiting from more of a test of stamina. Below the pick of her juvenile efforts on handicap debut at Newmarket (7f, good to soft) recently so others look stronger.
Progressive 2yo; only seventh on her return and she's held by two of these on that form..
10
2nd (10) Zabbie (28/1 +15%)
Zabbie

28
28/1(+15%)
(10) Zabbie 28/1, Made a winning nursery debut at Doncaster (7f) in August last year and, on her eighth start of the campaign, ran her best race yet when runner-up in similar event at Newmarket in September. Ran poorly on return last month so best watched.
Had plenty of racing at two, winning once; well beaten on her Newmarket return..

3rd (1) Physique (4.5/1 +44%)
Physique

4.5
4.5/1(+44%)
(1) Physique 4.5/1, Had a bit up his sleeve to score second time up in a race lacking depth at Newmarket (7f, good to soft) in October but failed to last out over the 1m trip on return at Chelmsford last month. Tongue tie applied for handicap bow.
Useful 2yo form but dropped out tamely at Chelmsford after racing freely..
3
4th (3) Quantum Impact (1.38/1 +66%)
Quantum Impact

1.38
1.38/1(+66%)
(3) Quantum Impact 1.38/1, Set the standard and opened his account with something in hand at Pontefract in September. Much improved when making a winning nursery debut at Newbury (6f, heavy) 5 weeks later and he looks the sort to go on progressing at 3. Considered on return.
Progressive last term when a strong stayer over 6f; 8lb higher than for his nursery win..
11
5th (11) Sharp Power (12/1 +0%)
Sharp Power

12
12/1(+0%)
(11) Sharp Power 12/1, Placed on all 3 career outings so far, runner-up in a Lingfield maiden (7f, AW, evens) just over 5 weeks ago. Opening mark looks workable so be interesting to see what the market makes of him.
Under positive tactics he was bang there in 6f-7f novice events on the AW; h'cap debut..
2
6th (2) Awtaad Prince (33/1 +0%)
Awtaad Prince

33
33/1(+0%)
(2) Awtaad Prince 33/1, Off the mark in 6f Leicester novice in the mud in October. Not so good in 7f listed race at Saint-Cloud next time but ran as well as could be expected up against some promising rivals on return at Newmarket (7f, soft) last month. More needed now handicapping.
No impact on his return at the Craven meeting (7f, soft) when 66-1 for his handicap debut..
6
7th (6) Boy Browning (12/1 -33%)
Boy Browning

12
12/1(-33%)
(6) Boy Browning 12/1, Brazen Beau colt who confirmed debut promise when landing odds in good style at Windsor last August. However, he proved to be a disappointment when sent off favourite in a valuable sales race at Newmarket 3 weeks later so market check advised on handicap bow/return.
Useful 2yo; returns now gelded and this mark could be okay..
7
8th (7) Havana Blue (3.5/1 +13%)
Havana Blue

3.5
3.5/1(+13%)
(7) Havana Blue 3.5/1, Sent off favourite and ran at least as well as previously on reappearance when length second of 17 to Harry Magnus on handicap debut at Newmarket (7f, good to soft) just over 2 weeks ago. Ought to be winning before long so not dismissed.
Consistent thus far; the race may have been needed when 2nd to Harry Magnus at Newmarket..
LTO Selection:

13:20 Goodwood Handicap (Class 3) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

1st: 3.5/1 (5) HARRY MAGNUS, 2nd: 4/1 (3) QUANTUM IMPACT, 3rd: 4/1 (7) HAVANA BLUE

Harry Magnus (first) and Havana Blue (second) are closely matched based on their recent meeting at Newmarket and it would be no surprise to see both go well here. That said, marginal preference is for QUANTUM IMPACT, who improved with every start last year and a mark of 86 may still underestimate Ralph Beckett's colt. The consistent Sharp Power has to be of some interest on his handicap debut, while Boy Browning is another to note.

HARRY MAGNUS had a bit up his sleeve when making a winning handicap debut at Newmarket last month and, with Charlie Hills's colt sure to have more to offer, a 4 lb rise is unlikely to prevent the hat-trick. He gets the nod ahead of Quantum Impact, who is another arriving in search of a third win on the bounce but may have to settle for silver on reappearance. Havana Blue and Magical Merlin are another couple worth considering.

Harry Magnus quickened up well to prevail at Newmarket but HAVANA BLUE ran well in second when the run may have been needed.

3
1st (3) Roman Mist (7/1 +22%)
Roman Mist

7
7/1(+22%)
(3) Roman Mist 7/1, Ended her time with Tom Ward with a good second in 1m Lingfield listed race but had been no match for Potapova at Sandown prior to that. Reappears for new trainer Archie Watson.
Up and down last season but her peak efforts make her a player..
4
2nd (4) Zellie (1.88/1 +6%)
Zellie

1.88
1.88/1(+6%)
(4) Zellie 1.88/1, Group 1 winner in France at 2 and fourth in last year's 1000 Guineas at Newmarket. Below-form fourth in 1m Longchamp listed last October (final start for Andre Fabre) but will have a big say if anywhere near her best on her return for a new stable.
Group 1 class for Andre Fabre and has to be of strong interest at this level..
5
3rd (5) Araminta (7.5/1 +32%)
Araminta

7.5
7.5/1(+32%)
(5) Araminta 7.5/1, Looked a useful prospect when making a winning debut at Newbury (7f, heavy) last month. Likely to improve but this is a big ask of one so inexperienced.
Picked up most takingly from off the pace to win a 7f Newbury maiden by clear daylight..
6
4th (6) Candle Of Hope (18/1 -50%)
Candle Of Hope

18
18/1(-50%)
(6) Candle Of Hope 18/1, Dual winner at 2 when also third in a Newbury listed. Shaped better than result in 7f Lingfield listed on reappearance, keeping on when hampered. Steps up to 1m for the first time now. Open to progress.
Dual winner but has come up short in all her Listed/Group 3 assignments..
1
5th (1) Lightship (9/1 -29%)
Lightship

9
9/1(-29%)
(1) Lightship 9/1, Has progressed well on AW this spring, winning 2 1m handicaps at Kempton before a much-improved second in listed race there 26 days ago. Needs to show she can do it on turf now.
Seriously progressive and bumped into a Group 1 filly at Kempton last time..
2
|PU| (2) Potapova (1.75/1 -7%)
Potapova

1.75
1.75/1(-7%)
(2) Potapova 1.75/1, Sandown Group 3 winner last August. Respectable 2¼ lengths fourth of 6 to Mutasaabeq in Joel Stakes at Newmarket (1m, good) on final start. Leading form claims.
Very smart on her day but trainer's patient approach suggests this may be needed..
LTO Selection:

13:55 Goodwood Listed (Class 1) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.

1st: 2/1 (4) ZELLIE 2nd: 1.63/1 (2) POTAPOVA 3rd: 7/1 (1) LIGHTSHIP

A creditable fourth in last year's 1000 Guineas, ZELLIE never really quite pushed on from that effort, but this represents an ideal opportunity to bounce back to winning ways for new connections. The daughter of Wootton Bassett may have too much for Potapova, who was impressive in the Atalanta Stakes at Sandown on her penultimate start. Runner-up in Listed company at Kempton last month, Lightship is another to consider.

POTAPOVA escapes a penalty for her Sandown Group 3 win last summer and is the one to beat on her reappearance. Zellie was classy for Andre Fabre in France and is feared most having joined another top stable ahead of her return to action.

With no confirmed front-runner, this could become very tactical. ZELLIE is a Group 1 filly running in a Listed race.

1st (5) Goldsborough (10/1 +70%)
Goldsborough

10
10/1(+70%)
(5) Goldsborough 10/1, 10/1, little promise in Bath novice on debut 15 days ago.
Behind Milteye when a fading sixth at Bath and clearly needs to improve on that..
2
2nd (2) Bishop's Crown (3/1 -20%)
Bishop's Crown

3
3/1(-20%)
(2) Bishop's Crown 3/1, Ran another good race in 1m Kempton novice when last seen in November and the form stacks up (winner, second, fifth all scored next time). Gelded and surely has wins in him this year.
Good runs at two and his form looks as good as anything else in this field..
3
3rd (3) Milteye (2.5/1 +38%)
Milteye

2.5
2.5/1(+38%)
(3) Milteye 2.5/1, Promising start at Newmarket (7f) in the autumn but failed to meet expectations on return at Bath (1m, 5/4 favourite), not looking at home on the track. Could find Goodwood an eye-opener also with that in mind.
Seconds at Newmarket and Bath; should be involved if okay around here..
6
4th (6) One More Wave (3/1 +33%)
One More Wave

3
3/1(+33%)
(6) One More Wave 3/1, Left his debut form well behind having been gelded when second to impressive winner in 7f Kempton maiden last month. Can do better again.
Ran a lot better behind a promising winner at Kempton (7f); unlikely to be far away..
1
5th (1) Dotties Star (28/1 +65%)
Dotties Star

28
28/1(+65%)
(1) Dotties Star 28/1, Fair form in a trio of bumpers but held in Epsom novice 11 days ago. He's surely more one for handicaps.
Ability in bumpers but only fourth of six and well held at Epsom (1m, soft)..
7
6th (7) Anticipating (8.5/1 +66%)
Anticipating

8.5
8.5/1(+66%)
(7) Anticipating 8.5/1, Bated Breath filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including winner up to 1¼m Rewired and 2m/16.6f winner Grey Mist. Appealing pedigree but suspect she'll need more time.
Newcomer; needs checking in the market but future is likely to be over further..
10
7th (10) Trussst In Me (8.5/1 +74%)
Trussst In Me

8.5
8.5/1(+74%)
(10) Trussst In Me 8.5/1, £24,000 yearling, Fast Company filly. Half-sister to useful/ungenuine winner up to 20.6f Just Hubert and useful winner up to 1½m Contact. Dam French 9f-13f winner.
£24,000 yearling; related to winners but one to watch unless backed..
LTO Selection:

14:30 Goodwood Maiden (Class 4) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Based on the summary, 2.5/1 (2) BISHOP'S CROWN, 10/1 (9) LOVE IS A ROSE, and 4.5/1 (6) ONE MORE WAVE are likely to finish in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place, respectively.

Several of these are interesting contenders and the like of Trussst In Me, who debuts for an in-form yard, and Love Is A Rose, who is entitled to improve upon her introduction at Newmarket last October, need to be monitored carefully in the betting. However, Milteye and BISHOP'S CROWN arguably set the standard on form, with the latter shading the nomination given he has a tad more experience. His dam won over this trip on the AW and, with his yard hitting top gear, a bold effort is expected.

There are races in RAJINDRI and she could be the answer to this tricky maiden. Bishop's Crown and One More Wave are a couple of the other more appealing contenders.

Not a strong maiden and RAJINDRI showed sufficient promise in her two AW runs last season to believe she'll be up to the task.

1st (8) Time Interval (4.5/1 +68%)
Time Interval

4.5
4.5/1(+68%)
(8) Time Interval 4.5/1, Won last May (over 1¼m at Windsor) on the back of a good reappearance run at Newbury. Set himself up nicely for an attempt to repeat that feat when second of 15 at Newbury (1¼m, heavy) on seasonal return a fortnight ago. Nudged up 3 lb but still much respected.
Very nearly sprung a 100-1 surprise from the front on soft ground at Newbury on return..

Bad Company

4
4/1(+43%)
(2) Bad Company 4/1, Reliable operator who was better than ever when winning the City And Surburban at Epsom 11 days ago. Some of his 5 lb rise is offset by Benoit de la Sayette's claim. Likely to be in the shake-up.
Won under a positive ride at Epsom when everything was in his favour; up 5lb..
6
3rd (6) Maghlaak (4/1 -14%)
Maghlaak

4
4/1(-14%)
(6) Maghlaak 4/1, Made a promising start to his career at the end of last summer, winning novices at Kempton 1m and over C&D (good to soft). His opening mark demands more but further progress is on the cards.
Made his debut only last August and this 4yo could be a sharp improver this campaign..
3
4th (3) Honiton (6/1 -71%)
Honiton

6
6/1(-71%)
(3) Honiton 6/1, Off since finishing well held in a handicap at Royal Ascot last June. Had shown plenty of promise at maiden/novice level prior to that and he retains potential on his return to action. Very interesting to see how he goes in the betting.
Off since disappointing at Royal Ascot; went into that looking very progressive..
9
5th (9) Sweet Reward (9/1 +36%)
Sweet Reward

9
9/1(+36%)
(9) Sweet Reward 9/1, Failed to add to his tally in 2022 but posted several creditable efforts in defeat. Off 9 months, shaped as if needing run when eighth of 15 on Newbury reappearance, fading under 2f out. Should be back closer to his best this time.
Third in this last year after a quiet reappearance, so not without hope after the same..
7
6th (7) Farasi Lane (3.5/1 +42%)
Farasi Lane

3.5
3.5/1(+42%)
(7) Farasi Lane 3.5/1, Back to winning ways over 7f at Southwell in March and caught the eye when stepped up to 1¼m for the first time at Lingfield on Good Friday, leaving impression he'd have gone close with a clear run. At the top of his game at present.
Profile is up and down but he has form here and could be a major player..
5
7th (5) Aussie Banker (12/1 -50%)
Aussie Banker

12
12/1(-50%)
(5) Aussie Banker 12/1, Has progressed into a useful handicapper on AW in recent starts, running well again for second at Lingfield (1m) on Good Friday. His success at Haydock last spring provides hope that he can translate recent improvement back to turf. Trip an unknownm, though.
Has something to prove off this mark and in this grade back on grass..
4
8th (4) Wilkie (40/1 +0%)
Wilkie

40
40/1(+0%)
(4) Wilkie 40/1, Pretty useful performer for Andre Fabre in France. Off 17 months, showed he retains ability when fifth of 7 in Epsom handicap on return in September but down the field in November Handicap final start. Best watched unless market strongly hints otherwise.
Winner in France; indifferent start in Britain and best watched after his layoff..
LTO Selection:

15:05 Goodwood Handicap (Class 2) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

1st: 7/1 (2) BAD COMPANY 2nd: 6/1 (7) FARASI LANE 3rd: 3.5/1 (3) HONITON

Maghlaak struck over C&D in September to make it two out of three, and the four-year-old now tackles a handicap for the first time off a possibly lenient mark. However, preference is still for STAY WELL, who can be forgiven his latest effort at York when he bled from the nose. The son of Iffraaj was holding his form quite well prior to that and he goes well fresh. Bad Company was a decisive winner at Epsom and is respected off 5lb higher.

FARASI LANE looked a little unlucky when stepped up to this trip for the first time at Lingfield over Easter and might prove the answer to this tricky handicap. Stay Well has a good record when fresh so is respected on his reappearance for the in-form Hughie Morrison stable. Time Interval and the unexposed Honiton also enter calculations.

A chance is taken on FARASI LANE, who has gone well here in the past and is unexposed over a trip that he should stay fine.

(2) Mark Of Gold 0.91/1, In excellent form over hurdles this season, scoring three times. Has his first run on the level since 2021 but interesting off a handy-looking mark.
Well handicapped on best Flat form and on recent hurdles form; good chance.

Creditable fourth at Bath last month; frame possibilities off same mark.

(4) Tuddenham Green 4/1, Dual 2m hurdles winner who posted a good second of 11 in handicap at Nottingham (16f, heavy) 31 days ago. Not taken lightly despite taking a 2 lb rise.
Threatening to win on the Flat, with form figures of 332 in handicaps; highly respected.
9
4th (9) Capone (14/1 -100%)
Capone

14
14/1(-100%)
(9) Capone 14/1, Fairly useful 2m4f winner over hurdles for Charlie Mann in 2020. Off 14 months before shaping encouragingly for his new yard when second in 2m Wolverhampton handicap. Back from another lengthy absence now but still merits consideration.
Seen only once since 2020, namely when going close on AW in early 2022.

Clear third over 1m6f here yesterday; place claims if backing up that effort.

0-7 but form of latest effort has been boosted; not without hope.
LTO Selection:

15:45 Goodwood Handicap (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Based on the summary provided, it is difficult to confidently predict which horse will finish in the top three. However, 3/1 (4) TUDDENHAM GREEN and Mark of Gold are both mentioned as having good chances and are highly respected, while 11/1 (8) ANISOPTERA is noted as arriving in excellent form and should be in the shake-up. Therefore, the prediction is that 3/1 (4) TUDDENHAM GREEN will finish first, followed by Mark of Gold in second and 11/1 (8) ANISOPTERA in third.

TUDDENHAM GREEN remains relatively unexposed on the Flat and arrives in this following a creditable second over 2m at Nottingham last month. He is rated 2lb higher for that run, but this represents a drop in class for Alan King's four-year-old and he can post his best effort to date in this sphere. Tibbie Dunbar steps back up in trip following a decent fourth at Bath last time out and is fancied to go well, while Anisoptera can also make her presence felt.

MARK OF GOLD is without a run on the level since 2021 but he has enjoyed an excellent time of it over hurdles for Gary Moore and can capitalise on a handy-looking mark back on the Flat now. Capone has a long absence to overcome but goes well fresh and is another who is weighted to have a big say. In-form pair Tuddenham Green and Anisoptera both command lots of respect too.

Nottingham runner-up TUDDENHAM GREEN (nap) is taken to go one better and open his Flat account. Mark Of Gold is feared most.

Based on the summary, the horses that are most likely to finish in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd are: 1st - 3.5/1 (7) SERA DAWN 2nd - 5/1 (4) THE THAMES BOATMAN 3rd - 3.5/1 (1) ROCKING ENDS 3.5/1 (7) SERA DAWN is chasing a hat-trick and has been in good form this season, with recent wins at Nottingham and Catterick. 5/1 (4) THE THAMES BOATMAN has been consistent in his recent races, with two wins on AW and a good 3rd at Southwell in his latest outing. 3.5/1 (1) ROCKING ENDS had a career-best performance on AW in his most recent race and has won on fast turf in the past, although slower ground may be a concern.

A small but open contest, in which the vote goes to SAFARI DREAM. He was progressive last season, winning all three of his handicap starts (the latest from 2lb lower), before achieving a midfield finish in a valuable sales race at Newmarket. Drawn well in stall six, he can make a successful return to action, though recent Nottingham scorer Umming N' Ahing ought to provide a stern challenge. Simple Man is another who merits serious consideration.

None of these sprinters can be safely ruled out but Henry Candy's SIMPLE MAN had looked a very good prospect when making a winning debut at Nottingham last autumn and is well worth forgiving his subsequent seventh in a Doncaster listed event. He gets the vote ahead of the handily-weighted Rocking Ends, although hat-trick seeking pair Sera Dawn and Umming N' Ahing need factoring in too.

Competitive. The Thames Boatman and Safari Dream are respected but SIMPLE MAN looked one to follow when winning on his debut.

17:00 Goodwood Handicap (Class 5) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Based on the summary, it is difficult to predict with certainty which horse will finish in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place. However, some horses that have potential and could be considered for a top spot are 7.5/1 (6) KITARO KICH, who represents an in-form yard and is up in trip, 5.5/1 (1) MILITARY TYCOON, who is bred to be suited by the new trip and is making his handicap debut, and 4/1 (9) JOHNJAY, who won his last race and is a promising type. 6/1 (8) SEA SQUARED and 22/1 (10) CHERRYHAWK could also be contenders as they are both up in trip and making their handicap debut, with potential for improvement.

Johnjay made a successful handicap debut at Bath last month and he merits respect, along with Entrancement, who made a promising return to action when finishing fourth at Nottingham 31 days ago. However, preference is for MILITARY TYCOON. Hugo Palmer's charge has looked in need of a step up in trip having been outpaced on all three of his starts over 1m and, judged on his debut run when he finished within four lengths of the now 92-rated Yaanaas, he could be well treated.

JOHNJAY made the perfect start for Roger Teal at Bath last month and should have more to offer now he's up and running. He can go in again. I Still Have Faith and Military Tycoon are a couple of the dangers.

The percentage call goes to KITARO KICH, whose stable has been back among the winners recently. Sea Squared is second choice.

About U.K Horse Racing

Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.

There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.

The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool. It is a jump racing event that is known for its challenging course and has become a national institution in the UK. Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.

Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.

In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.

Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
