13:50 Goodwood Stakes (Class 4) 6f Race Class Flow

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

This is likely to be an informative contest and it would be no surprise to see the likes of Red Sand, Siegen and The Flying Seagull all build on their debut efforts and warrant close inspection in the betting. However, ORIGINAL OUTLAW, whose dam is a half-sister to the top-level winners Without Parole and Tamarkuz, has a striking pedigree and the son of Wootton Bassett is suggested as the first one to consider.

Preference is for THE FLYING SEAGULL, who met some trouble when a pleasing third on debut at Chester earlier this month and will have learnt plenty from that outing. Red Sand is feared most of those with experience, whilst Original Outlaw may be the pick of the newcomers.

It looks quite tight among the form horses. ORIGINAL OUTLAW and Berkshire Kameo are interesting newcomers.

5
(5) Yorkindness (9/1 +18%)
Yorkindness

9
9/1(+18%)
(5) Yorkindness 9/1, Typical of one from this yard who thrived on racing in 2023, successful 5 times at 2m+. There's probably still mileage in her current mark judged on creditable reappearance fourth of 14 at Chester (18.6f, good to firm) and she's a live each-way candidate.
Ran creditably in Chester Plate on reappearance; could have a say if ground is not soft.
9
(9) Plus Point (14/1 +0%)
Plus Point

14
14/1(+0%)
(9) Plus Point 14/1, Won first 2 handicaps last year and positive start to this season when third of 13 at Musselburgh (12.5f, good to soft) on return last month. Wasn't disgraced upped to this trip here subsequently but she has a bit to find with Havaila and Maxident on that evidence.
Did not see out the 2m nearly as well as Havaila or Maxident over C&D (soft) last time.
8
(8) Hurtle Wallop (33/1 +34%)
Hurtle Wallop

33
33/1(+34%)
(8) Hurtle Wallop 33/1, Minor promise in maiden/novice company but blotted his copybook on recent handicap debut at Salisbury where he whipped round at the start and unseated his rider. Temperament is very much under suspicion.
Lightly raced; has shown some ability but also temperamental issues.
3
1st (3) Pledgeofallegiance (11/2 +15%)
Pledgeofallegiance

5.5
11/2(+15%)
(3) Pledgeofallegiance 11/2, Raised his game in 2023, winning 3 times at up to 2m. Encouraging start to this season when third of 9 at Southwell (16.5f) and, still unexposed at this trip, he has to enter calculations.
Not proven on softer than good, otherwise another good run should be on its way.
1
2nd (1) Temporize (12/1 -20%)
Temporize

12
12/1(-20%)
(1) Temporize 12/1, Sole previous visit here resulted in a career-best display to land a 17-runner handicap (20.4f, soft) at the big meeting last August. Signed 2023 campaign off with a decent effort at Kempton and while he's yet to score off a mark this high, he will be a threat if fully tuned-up.
Cesarewitch was his only disappointment last season; won at Glorious Goodwood (2m4f, soft).
7
3rd (7) Manxman (9/2 +0%)
Manxman

4.5
9/2(+0%)
(7) Manxman 9/2, Prolific in handicaps last season, winning 5 of his 6 starts, and he went down narrowly in a 5-runner handicap here (1¾m, heavy) on return 3 weeks ago. Entitled to come on for that and record over 2m+ stands at 3-3.
Did very well last year and nearly scored again when reappearing at this track.
2
4th (2) Vino Victrix (11/2 +31%)
Vino Victrix

5.5
11/2(+31%)
(2) Vino Victrix 11/2, Improved performer in 2022, successful in a C&D handicap and fine second in the Cesarewitch during that campaign. Largely below par last season but he was a solid third at Kempton when last seen in December and this 6-y-o needs considering.
2022 C&D winner who has edged down the weights; interesting if ground has not turned soft.
4
5th (4) Robert Johnson (10/1 -54%)
Robert Johnson

10
10/1(-54%)
(4) Robert Johnson 10/1, Made good strides last season, hitting the target on 5 occasions before following Temporize home over a marathon trip at the big meeting here in August. Placed both starts since returning to action last month and there's no reason to think he won't be competitive once more.
Second of 17 to Temporize at the big meeting here (2m4f, soft); good places this term.
6
6th (6) Maxident (5/1 +9%)
Maxident

5
5/1(+9%)
(6) Maxident 5/1, Heavy-ground novice winner last spring and underlined how well he copes with testing ground when second in 2¼m Pontefract handicap on reappearance. Another good effort when third over this C&D (soft) last time and claims if able to reproduce that form on what is likely to be a faster surface.
Ran well to be placed from the front both runs this term, neck behind Havaila here latest.
10
7th (10) Havaila (5/2 +55%)
Havaila

2.5
5/2(+55%)
(10) Havaila 5/2, Won over hurdles at Sandown (2½m, heavy) for Anthony Charlton in January. First run since leaving that yard when runner-up over this C&D (soft) last time and he's a big player with William Buick booked.
Flat maiden but has a major shout judged on neck second over C&D (soft) last time.

14:25 Goodwood Handicap (Class 3) 16f Race Class Flow

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

MANXMAN, who rounded off last season with a four-timer, almost picked up where he left off when a narrow runner-up over 1m6f on his seasonal debut here three weeks ago. Stepping back up in trip is an ideal move and the Crisford's consistent gelding and can go one better, with a 1lb higher mark unlikely to cause too many issues. Yorkindness, Maxident and Robert Johnson are other serious contenders for the shortlist.

With William Buick booked HAVAILA makes plenty of appeal on his second start for the yard responsible for two of the last four winners of this race. He had two of these rivals (Maxident and Plus Point) behind when going close over C&D last time and a 2 lb nudge for that near miss is fair enough. Temporize enjoyed his finest hour to date here last summer and he has to enter calculations, while Manxman and Pledgeofallegiance are others to consider.

This looks competitive, though soft ground would probably dent a few hopes. MANXMAN moving back up in trip may hold the strongest hand.

Ayyab

6.5
13/2(+46%)
(3) Ayyab 13/2, Acquitted herself well in both starts this year, latest when ½-length third of 6 to Avon Light in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f) 48 days ago. Back on turf now and remains feasibly treated.
Generally consistent; close third to Avon Light in AW contest most recently.
6
2nd (6) Entrancement (11/1 +31%)
Entrancement

11
11/1(+31%)
(6) Entrancement 11/1, Course winner who posted respectable seventh of 18 in handicap (20/1) at Newbury (10f, good) on return 34 days ago. Should be straighter for that run although claims would be aided by significant rain.
Best form at 1m2f, including win here last May; possibilities provided she stays new trip.
1
3rd (1) Divina Grace (16/1 -60%)
Divina Grace

16
16/1(-60%)
(1) Divina Grace 16/1, Won back-to-back handicaps at this sort of trip in September and upped her game further when second of 9 at Newmarket (12f, good to firm) the following month. Goes well fresh and must enter calculations.
Absent since her good second at Newmarket last October when bidding for a hat-trick.
11
4th (11) Mallavelly (11/1 -69%)
Mallavelly

11
11/1(-69%)
(11) Mallavelly 11/1, Made the frame in a couple of Newmarket maidens this season and remains low mileage. Switches to handicaps here but step up in trip is not guaranteed to suit.
Respectable form in Newmarket maidens this term; could be dangerous off bottom weight.
10
5th (10) Strutting (17/2 -6%)
Strutting

8.5
17/2(-6%)
(10) Strutting 17/2, Below form on Newmarket return earlier this month but improved with each start last year and can't be ruled out on switch to handicapping.
Frankel filly who drops back in class (from Listed grade) and could go well.
2
6th (2) Sweet Fantasy (17/2 +29%)
Sweet Fantasy

8.5
17/2(+29%)
(2) Sweet Fantasy 17/2, Dual winner over hurdles this winter who returned to form in this sphere when second of 7 in handicap at Doncaster (11.9f, soft) 27 days ago. Claims if building on that.
Ran creditably at Doncaster last time, confirming that she's suited by soft ground.
9
7th (9) True Wisdom (4/1 +50%)
True Wisdom

4
4/1(+50%)
(9) True Wisdom 4/1, Lightly-raced filly who found improvement when second of 6 in handicap at Kempton (11f) 44 days ago. 2 lb rise fair and not taken lightly.
Form of 2yo win has substance; good second on reappearance; yard won this race last year.
8
8th (8) Ya Hafhd (9/2 -13%)
Ya Hafhd

4.5
9/2(-13%)
(8) Ya Hafhd 9/2, Off the mark at Southwell (11.1f) in December and shaped with plenty of encouragement when second of 7 on handicap debut at Doncaster (10.2f, soft) 28 days ago, running on. Likely more to come yet.
Thrice-raced daughter of Sea The Stars; looks likely to improve further; respected.
7
9th (7) Avon Light (20/1 -82%)
Avon Light

20
20/1(-82%)
(7) Avon Light 20/1, Won a brace of AW handicaps earlier this year and proved herself on turf when third of 10 in handicap at Ascot (10f, good to firm) 13 days ago. Others make more appeal, though.
Ran creditably at Ascot in hat-trick attempt; remains in good form.
5
10th (5) No Niki No (33/1 -83%)
No Niki No

33
33/1(-83%)
(5) No Niki No 33/1, Ran up to best, back from 7 months off, when fourth of 11 in handicap (25/1) at Sligo (10.6f, good to soft) 19 days ago, ridden too aggressively. More needed to play a part here.
Irish challenger who is an exposed 8yo and remains on career-high mark.
4
11th (4) Juana Ines (7/1 -17%)
Juana Ines

7
7/1(-17%)
(4) Juana Ines 7/1, Won a maiden on second start in France and shaped encouragingly on UK debut for new yard when third in Ascot minor event (12f) 7 months ago. Likely more to come on return/handicap bow.
Thrice-raced filly who is an interesting prospect for handicaps this season.

15:00 Goodwood Handicap (Class 3) 12f Race Class Flow

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

Charlie Johnston sent out the winner of this race last year and can repeat the feat with the progressive TRUE WISDOM, whose second-placed finish over 1m3f on her seasonal debut at Kempton last month was a strong hint of more to come. Ya Hafhd was also a promising runner-up on her seasonal bow at Doncaster last month and is another key player. Avon Light and Mallavelly are other solid options to consider.

JUANA INES shaped nicely on debut for her new yard at Ascot in October and appeals as the type to do well in staying handicaps this year. She gets the nod. True Wisdom and Ya Hafhd head the list of dangers.

Preference is for TRUE WISDOM (nap), who looks well handicapped on her 2yo win. Ya Hafhd is second choice.

Royal Rhyme

1.625
13/8(-30%)
(2) Royal Rhyme 13/8, Bolted up in C&D handicap at last year's Glorious meeting and followed up in Ayr listed race (1¼m, good) in September. Far from disgraced stepped up to a Group 1 when fifth in Champion Stakes at Ascot final start. Appeals as one who will do well at 4 yrs. Engaged 7.37 Sandown Thursday.
Progressive and has won over C&D; needs slow ground; won 7:37 Sandown Thursday.
6
(6) Elegancia (22/1 +12%)
Elegancia

22
22/1(+12%)
(6) Elegancia 22/1, Useful dual winner over this trip last year. Came up short at Group 3/listed level on her final 2 starts but returns with her yard going well and no surprise were she to make more of an impact this time. Engaged 7.37 Sandown on Thursday.
Has the worst chance at the weights; well beaten 7:37 Sandown Thursday.
1
1st (1) Isle Of Jura (6/1 -33%)
Isle Of Jura

6
6/1(-33%)
(1) Isle Of Jura 6/1, Improving at a rate of knots, showing smart form when winning 4 of his 5 starts in Bahrain over the winter, the latest a valuable listed prize. Every chance of another win if he can translate that form back to Britain.
Landed the Bahrain Triple Crown this year; respected granted suitable ground.

2nd (4) Mujtaba (5/2 +55%)
Mujtaba

2.5
5/2(+55%)
(4) Mujtaba 5/2, Smart form when winning a pair of handicaps late in 2022. Good close second in Chester Group 2 on sole 5-y-o start but has a bit to prove after 2 no shows this spring. First-time blinkers need to spark him back to life.
First-time blinkers may prompt a revival; strong contender on peak figures.
5
3rd (5) Passion And Glory (6/1 +70%)
Passion And Glory

6
6/1(+70%)
(5) Passion And Glory 6/1, Won a Group 3 here as a 4-y-o. Latest success came in a Bahrain listed event in March 2023. This year's efforts in the Middle East have been short of his best, though.
Form has dipped this year; perhaps on the wane aged eight.
3
4th (3) Claymore (11/2 +73%)
Claymore

5.5
11/2(+73%)
(3) Claymore 11/2, Useful horse who has found it tough in the face of some stiffish tasks this season but this looks a bit easier than the Newmarket Group 3 he tackled last time and should at least get involved in the battle for minor honours.
Inconsistent since his Royal Ascot success in 2022; not a solid option.
8
5th (8) Sea Of Roses (2/1 +74%)
Sea Of Roses

2
2/1(+74%)
(8) Sea Of Roses 2/1, Runner-up at Listed/Group 3 level last year and ran with credit when third in a 1½m course listed race 3 weeks ago. Should go well.
Creditable third in Listed race at this course last time; likely to perform well.
7

(7) Empress Wu 22/1, Useful filly, including second in a C&D listed race last June. Ended the year with a respectable fourth of 14 in 13f Lingfield listed in November. Low mileage so it wouldn't be a surprise to see her take another step forward at 4.
Useful filly who has placed form at Listed and Group 3 level, including here.

15:35 Goodwood Listed (Class 1) 10f Race Class Flow

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

It was only three runs ago when MUJTABA was touched off in the Group 2 Huxley Stakes and although disappointing since, he may improve for both dropping in class and the fitting of blinkers. Passion And Glory won his only previous visit here and warrants respect, while Claymore is also capable of landing a blow at this level. Obviously, Royal Rhyme would come right into the equation if running here instead of in Thursday night's Brigadier Gerard at Sandown.

ISLE OF JURA got on a real roll in Bahrain over the winter and is taken to go in again on his return to Britain. Sea of Roses ran well in a course listed race here last time and should go well again, while Royal Rhyme, so impressive in a C&D handicap at last year's Glorious meeting, would be a major player if showing up here rather than Sandown.

The two suggestions against the field are the useful fillies SEA OF ROSES (narrowly preferred) and Empress Wu.

Wild Tiger

1.75
7/4(+22%)
(1) Wild Tiger 7/4, 5-y-o who missed whole of last season but fit from spell in Meydan and, in first-time cheekpieces, looked one who can rate higher still when running out a ready winner of 5-runner Yarmouth handicap (7f) at the start of the month. One to keep on side.

(6) Racingbreaks Ryder 12/1, Form tailed off after a very promising start in handicaps last season and no upturn for a break/being gelded in couple of starts this spring. Mark has fallen considerably but he's hard to warm to at the moment.
May benefit from this drop back to 7f; now 5lb below last winning mark.

Outstayed over 8.5f on last appearance; very consistent otherwise; should go well.

Has form figures of 121 on turf; interesting, despite going up in grade.

Only 1-11 on turf and his form in this sphere has declined.

All wins on AW at Kempton; went close in 7f contest at Glorious Goodwood in 2021.

Exposed but is nicely treated; fourth off 5lb higher in this race last year.

(2) Street Kid 9/1, Enhanced his good record fresh when successful at Wolverhampton (7f) in March and backed that up when second at Musselburgh (7.1f) latest, no extra only close home. Consistency hard to knock and each-way claims again from handy draw.
Useful 7f handicapper who is rather quirky but has returned in good form this term.

Ex-French 4yo who has two duck eggs for new stable.

16:10 Goodwood Handicap (Class 3) 7f Race Class Flow

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

WILD TIGER has an attractive, unexposed profile and could give weight and a beating to these rivals. He improved for the application of cheekpieces (worn again here) when scoring comfortably at Yarmouth and looks capable of defying a 7lb rise. Recent win and placed efforts show Street Kid to be arriving in excellent form and he is the biggest threat, while Smoky Mountain can't be dismissed dropped in both trip and class after finishing down the field at Wolverhampton.

Fit from a couple of in-the-frame efforts in Meydan, WILD TIGER marked himself down as one to keep onside when running out a ready winner at Yarmouth (7f) 3 weeks ago and, operating from a handy draw, he looks capable of making his mark in this stronger company. Street Kid is a likeable sort and holds claims along with another low-mileage 4-y-o in the shape of Be Frank. Toimy Son also needs keeping an eye on.

With further progress likely, WILD TIGER could well defy a 7lb rise for his clearcut Yarmouth win. Be Frank is second choice.

Queen's Reign

10
10/1(-54%)
(2) Queen's Reign 10/1, Confirmed debut promise when landing a 7f Newmarket maiden last June. Struggled in a Group 3 contest at the same course on final 2-y-o start but reappearance/handicap debut third at Yarmouth (7f, good) was encouraging and she remains open to improvement.
May well build on Yarmouth reappearance effort; bred to stay this new trip.

4/1(+20%)
(1) Aragon Castle 4/1, Off the mark at Epsom last summer and acquitted himself well in 3 subsequent starts as a 2-y-o. Bettered low-key reappearance display when a clear second at Haydock (1m, heavy) last time and he's a serious player off the same mark for last year's winning yard.
Has made the frame in two of his four handicap attempts, runner-up at Haydock latest.

Boyfriend

14/1(+30%)
(4) Boyfriend 14/1, Improved when making a winning handicap debut on heavy ground at Newbury (7f) last autumn. Slow off the block when nearer last than first on return at Ascot and while he's probably worth another chance, Mr Baloo is presumably the stable first-string.
Sole win came at Newbury on only attempt on ground slower than good.

9/2(+44%)
(6) Mr Monaco 9/2, Didn't do much wrong at 2 yrs, his breakthrough success in a 7f Leicester novice last summer sandwiched between creditable efforts in defeat at Salisbury and York (gelded since latest start). Still, improvement will be needed upped to a mile here following 7 months off.
Likely to relish this step up to 1m; respected with further improvement on the cards.

8/1(+0%)
(3) Mr Baloo 8/1, Has raised his game this season, bagging 7f/1m handicaps at Kempton either side of a creditable fourth at Epsom. 2 lb nudge for latest success is manageable and he shouldn't be far away.
Productive (4-6) since racing beyond sprint distances; game win on AW last time.

6th (8) Spanish Blaze (10/1 +29%)
Spanish Blaze

10
10/1(+29%)
(8) Spanish Blaze 10/1, Not entirely straightforward but possesses plenty of ability, comfortably landing nursery at Sandown (7f, good to soft) in September before finishing a good third at Doncaster. Down the field at York on final start of 2023, though, and likely to find one or two too good. Gelded.
May rebound with the cheekpieces removed, provided he stays this new trip.

(5) Betties Bay 33/1, Fairly useful filly who was noted doing good late work when third on handicap debut at Kempton (6f) in February. Has failed to build on that in 2 subsequent starts, though, and she's readily passed over.
Not solid on 2024 form and has something to prove upped further in trip.

8/1(-78%)
(9) Rukaana 8/1, Signed 2023 off on a winning note at Wolverhampton and, having shaped with encouragement on return at Doncaster, he got back on the scoresheet at Nottingham (8.3f, good) recently. 7 lb rise asks a question but he merits respect all the same.
Won going away at Nottingham two weeks ago, taking handicap record to 2-3.

9th (10) Miguel (12/1 +25%)
Miguel

12/1(+25%)
(10) Miguel 12/1, Winner of a Brighton maiden and Ripon nursery in September. Didn't shape at all badly when hitting the crossbar on return at Wolverhampton but he wasn't in the same form next time and The Smiling Wolf appears to be the stable No 1.
Inconsistent since his two good-ground wins last September.

(11) The Smiling Wolf 40/1, Ffos Las handicap winner in the mud last autumn and just touched off in an 11-runner Newmarket nursery on final 2-y-o start. Nowhere near that level in 2 starts so far this season but the handicapper is relenting and he's dangerous to discount.
Still needs to prove he has trained on and prove he stays this distance.

(7) Zain Blue 6/1, Fairly useful form in maiden/novice events at 2 yrs and placed both starts so far this season, latterly finding just one too good on his handicap debut at Ascot (1m, good). Major player off the same mark.
Good second off this mark at Ascot (handicap debut) two weeks ago; shortlisted.

16:40 Goodwood Handicap (Class 4) 8f Race Class Flow

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

RUKAANA won with plenty in hand at Nottingham earlier this month and a similar performance might be enough to see Charles Hills' gelding complete a double. A 7lb rise in the handicap will make things tougher and the class-dropping Aragon Castle could be there to take advantage should the selection underperform. Zain Blue hit the woodwork on his handicap bow a fortnight ago and he is a player from an unchanged mark, along with the in-form Mr Baloo.

A deserved first taste of success beckons for ZAIN BLUE, who made a very promising start in handicap company at Ascot a fortnight ago. Aragon Castle is feared on the back of his solid Haydock effort and he is second choice ahead of likely improver Queen's Reign and recent Nottingham winner Rukaana.

An opening mark of 82 looks manageable for interesting handicap debutant MR MONACO. Second choice is Zain Blue.

(9) Angle Land 16/1, Didn't enjoy the rub of the green when sixth of 7 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f, 7/2) 25 days ago, left poorly placed. Took this 12 months ago so he's very much in the mix from an easing mark.
Won this race off 8lb higher last year; not found her best so far in 2024 though.

(5) Night On Earth 8/1, Scored at Lingfield and Epsom this term and posted another good effort when fifth of 11 in handicap at Chester (5.1f, good) 15 days ago, despite having the worst of the draw. Ought to be in the shake-up once more.
Epsom win last month was followed by a mighty run from stall 12 at Chester; contender.

Improved performer this year, winning at Windsor before 2nd here (both 6f); first 5f run.

Thrown in on even his 2023 best; had wind op prior to reappearance; betting revealing.

Satisfactory return at Newmarket; promise in one Goodwood visit; wouldn't want it soft.

Placed the last twice but in small-field Class 5 handicaps; this demands more.

On a good mark but he ran poorly at Windsor on Monday, albeit he had a poor track position.

17:10 Goodwood Handicap (Class 3) 5f Race Class Flow

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

Last year's 1-2-3, Angle Land, Lihou and Dream Composer are all much lower in the ratings this time around and it would be folly to rule any of them out with that in mind, but it is FAIR WIND that shades preference. Owen Burrows' unexposed four-year-old signed off last season with a comfortable Windsor victory and he returned with a pleasing second at Ascot 23 days ago. The winner franked that form when finishing second in a warm Newmarket handicap next time, and he is taken to go one better off 2lb higher.

A case can be made for a few of these but Eve Johnson Houghton's BISHOP'S CROWN still looks to have more to offer, especially now dropped to 5f for the first time, and gets the nod. Spring Bloom is weighted to go close and heads the list of dangers, although Fair Wind, Angle Land and Night On Earth all need factoring into this very competitive sprint too.

Fair Wind isn't fully exposed but DREAM COMPOSER should find this being run to suit and is in better form than his figures suggest.

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.
