16:35 – Virgin Bet / EBF Maiden Fillies’ Stakes (GBB Race)
Race Details: 6f | Class 3 | Going: 5.10 & 5.45 +5yds and 7.28 +7yds) (Good to firm, good in places (goingstick 7.5) (watered) (rail movements) | | flat
This has thinned out into a small but quite informative maiden, and the market has latched firmly onto Motown Filly after two solid efforts. She sets the standard on the figures and, in truth, it would be disappointing if she couldn’t capitalise in a field lacking depth. Cut And Sew is the obvious one to give her something to think about after shaping with promise in both starts, while Gobby Grace is the interesting newcomer in a race where debutantes do not need to be stars to get competitive. Wig Wam Bam and Cubbie’s Dream both need sizeable steps forward from what they have shown. It is not a vintage maiden, but it is not a complete giveaway either, because Goodwood’s six furlongs can expose inexperience quickly.
Top Selections
1. Motown Filly – 4/5 with Bet365
Jockey: George Wood | Trainer: Richard Spencer | Form: 27 | Rating: 84 | Topspeed: 77
Motown Filly brings the best established form into the race and does not need much dressing up. That second-place finish on debut was useful, and although she could only manage seventh last time, the bare result does not put me off in a stronger context than this. Her mark of 84 and Topspeed figure of 77 leave her clear of these exposed rivals, and this drop into a six-runner maiden looks an ideal opening. She has enough pace for a sharp 6f and, with just ordinary improvement from start two to start three, she should be very hard to oppose. At 4/5 she is short, but deservedly so. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Cut And Sew – 11/4 with Bet365
Jockey: Kieran Shoemark | Trainer: Ed Walker | Form: 35 | Rating: 77 | Topspeed: 72
Cut And Sew looks the sensible each-way alternative, especially now the field is so compact and there are not many lurking improvers with proven form. Her third suggested ability, and she backed that up with a fair fifth without quite progressing as much as expected. Even so, a rating of 77 and Topspeed of 72 put her firmly in the argument for the places, and Ed Walker’s juveniles are not usually overfaced. Kieran Shoemark is a positive booking in a race where positioning at Goodwood matters plenty. She probably needs Motown Filly to underperform to win, but available at 11/4 she still makes appeal as the one most likely to chase the favourite home. Bet: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Keep it straightforward: Motown Filly is the win bet because she has the strongest form and the best figures in the line-up. Cut And Sew is the each-way play as the likeliest one to pick up the pieces if the favourite proves vulnerable. Gobby Grace is the unknown quantity and the only runner who could easily outrun her lack of public form.

17:10 – White & Brooks Fillies’ Handicap
Race Details: 1m 1f | Class 5 | Going: 5.10 & 5.45 +5yds and 7.28 +7yds) (Good to firm, good in places (goingstick 7.5) (watered) (rail movements) | | flat
This is a typically competitive Goodwood fillies’ handicap where the unexposed 3yos meet a handful of battle-hardened older mares, and that usually makes for a proper puzzle rather than a race to get too clever in. Hauteluce and Brighton Beach head the market for good reason, both arriving progressive, while Alice De Clare is another 3yo who has done plenty right and keeps finding the line. Blue Noon looks solid without screaming well treated, and Shady Bay is reliable enough but may again bump into one or two with more upside. Around Goodwood, balance and tactical speed matter every bit as much as raw ability, and with 13 runners the draw, track position and a bit of luck in running could easily prove decisive.
Top Selections
1. Hauteluce – 7/2 with Bet365
Jockey: Kieran Shoemark | Trainer: Ed Walker | Form: 5-131 | Rating: 80 | Topspeed: 47
Hauteluce makes plenty of appeal as a lightly raced 3yo who still looks ahead of the assessor despite going up to a mark of 80. That latest win advertised her wellbeing and, crucially, she has the sort of profile you want in a race like this: progressive, uncomplicated and drawn low enough to save ground if breaking on terms. Ed Walker does well with improving fillies and Kieran Shoemark is a good fit around this track, where rhythm is everything. At 7/2 she is hardly hidden, but she still looks the percentage call in a race full of exposed enough alternatives and a few with questions to answer. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Blue Wonder – 10/1 with Bet365
Jockey: David Egan | Trainer: Hughie Morrison | Form: 00-415 | Rating: 81 | Topspeed: 71
Blue Wonder is the each-way play at a double-figure price because she has a touch more substance to her form than the market suggests. Her win two starts back showed she can still be very effective when things fall right, and that Topspeed figure of 71 is one of the more convincing numbers in the field. The latest fifth was not a disaster and she is the kind who could easily be seen to better effect back in this scenario, especially with David Egan likely to keep her in a handy, stalking position from stall 3. In a race with four places on offer, 10/1 looks fair compensation for a mare with solid place claims and a live chance if the principals underperform. Bet: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Hauteluce is the win play because she is the most persuasive improver in the field and looks well suited by conditions. Blue Wonder is the each-way punt at 10/1, with her draw and stronger speed figure making her attractive for a place at least. The main dangers are Brighton Beach, who is open to more progress, and Alice De Clare, whose recent strike-rate demands respect.

17:45 – Virgin Bet A Good Bet Fillies’ Handicap (GBBPlus Race)
Race Details: 1m 3f | Class 4 | Going: 5.10 & 5.45 +5yds and 7.28 +7yds) (Good to firm, good in places (goingstick 7.5) (watered) (rail movements) | | flat
This looks a pretty workable little fillies’ handicap rather than a deep one, with several 3yo improvers taking on the older mare Kissmehoneyhoney. Ammoony sets a fair standard after a solid second off this sort of mark, while Kelly Burn arrives in winning form and Glenna has been knocking on the door in similar company. The obvious talking point, though, is whether Kissmehoneyhoney can build on her recent return to form now stepping up in trip for a yard that excels with these lightly-raced types. Goodwood can expose questionable balance and track position matters, so this should be decided by who settles best and sees out the 1m3f strongest. Tricky enough, but not impossible to untangle.
Top Selections
1. Kissmehoneyhoney – 7/2 with Bet365
Jockey: Tom Marquand | Trainer: William Haggas | Form: 1-82 | Rating: 82 | Topspeed: 65
She is the one I want to be with. There is still a bit of untapped potential here after only three starts, and that latest second suggested she is coming to hand nicely after a break. An opening mark of 82 looks fair rather than harsh, especially for a Haggas filly now moving into handicap company over a trip that ought to suit. Tom Marquand is a notable booking around this place and the draw in 5 looks perfectly manageable. At 7/2 she is not exactly flying under the radar, but she still makes more appeal than some more exposed rivals and holds strong claims if improving again.
Bet: WIN
2. Glenna – 7/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Saffie Osborne | Trainer: Tom Ward | Form: -45213 | Rating: 81 | Topspeed: 72
Glenna looks the each-way value in a race where a few at the head of the market are priced up tightly enough. Her profile is solid: she got off the mark two starts ago and backed that up with a perfectly respectable third last time, so the consistency is there. A mark of 81 does not look beyond her and her Topspeed figure of 72 says she is already running to a useful level for this grade. Drawn 3, she should get a sensible trip if breaking cleanly, and Saffie Osborne is well capable of delivering one late round here. At 7/1, she makes plenty of appeal as an each-way punt.
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Kissmehoneyhoney is the win play on the basis that she has the most scope to improve and could easily be better than this mark. For an each-way option, Glenna makes more sense than some of the shorter ones because her recent form is reliable and the price gives you room to work with. Ammoony and Kelly Burn are the obvious dangers if either gets a smooth run.

18:20 – Virgin Bet Daily Extra Places Handicap
Race Details: 5f | Class 4 | Going: 5.10 & 5.45 +5yds and 7.28 +7yds) (Good to firm, good in places (goingstick 7.5) (watered) (rail movements) | | flat
This is a proper Goodwood sprint handicap: sharp, competitive and full of pace angles, with very little margin for error over the minimum trip. Ruby’s Profit will have plenty of supporters after catching the eye of several tipsters, while Rogue Bullet arrives in solid nick and Brave Nation comes here off a win. Velvet Goldmine is the unexposed 3yo in the line-up and that usually matters in races like this, especially off a workable mark of 84. On raw figures, Sandscreendeliverd and Silver Wraith have bits of form that make them dangerous if things drop right. The draw and the usual Goodwood chaos over 5f will be decisive, so this looks more like a tricky betting race than a straightforward one.
Top Selections
1. Velvet Goldmine – 9/2 with Betfair
Jockey: Kieran Shoemark | Trainer: Ed Walker | Form: 8-32 | Rating: 84 | Topspeed: 75
Velvet Goldmine is the one I want on side because he looks the progressive sort in a race where plenty of these are exposed. He has only had three runs, improved from his comeback third to finish second last time, and an opening handicap mark of 84 does not look harsh on that evidence. Ed Walker knows the time of day with sprinters and Kieran Shoemark is a positive booking for a horse drawn widest who may need delivering late rather than getting involved in a speed battle too soon. Available at 9/2, he makes plenty of appeal as the runner with more to give. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Sandscreendeliverd – 10/1 with Betfair
Jockey: Pat Dobbs | Trainer: Peter Crate | Form: 259338 | Rating: 86 | Topspeed: 86
Sandscreendeliverd is not the easiest horse to catch right, but in this company a mark of 86 and a Topspeed figure of 86 give him a squeak at rewarding an each-way interest. His recent form is a bit mixed, yet there have been enough competitive runs in that sequence to suggest he can get involved if the race sets up for a closer from stall 2. Pat Dobbs is more than capable around this track and the price does some of the heavy lifting here; 10/1 is fair in a race where several of the shorter ones come with their own quirks. He looks a sensible each-way punt rather than a wild stab. Bet: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Velvet Goldmine is the win play because he has the profile of a 3yo who can still step forward in handicaps. For an each-way alternative, Sandscreendeliverd is interesting at double-figure odds in a race that should be run to suit something finishing off. Rogue Bullet and Ruby’s Profit are obvious dangers, while Brave Nation is respected after his latest win.

18:55 – Virgin Bet Every Saturday Money Back Handicap
Race Details: 6f | Class 5 | Going: 5.10 & 5.45 +5yds and 7.28 +7yds) (Good to firm, good in places (goingstick 7.5) (watered) (rail movements) | | flat
This looks a properly competitive 6f handicap rather than a weak late-card affair, with a mix of solid older sprinters and a few 3yos still open to improvement. Veil Of Clouds is the obvious starting point after getting off the mark and the Crisford runner has the profile of one who can keep progressing, but he is short enough in a race where several arrive with workable claims. Northcliff has been knocking hard on the door and looks tailor-made for this sort of track, while Sound And Vision is another lightly raced 3yo who could still have more to offer from a handy low draw. Add in Newsreader and the reliable enough Raffles Angel, and this feels more tricky than the favourite’s price suggests.
Top Selections
1. Northcliff – 5/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Tom Marquand | Trainer: Ross Burdon | Form: 146022 | Rating: 83 | Topspeed: 71
Northcliff makes plenty of appeal here. He has been running like a horse ready to strike, finishing runner-up on his last two starts, and that recent form reads well enough for a Class 5 of this nature. He is drawn low in stall 2, which can be no bad thing over this sharp 6f at Goodwood if Marquand can get him into a rhythm early, and he carries a handy 9st 9lb for a horse with one of the stronger recent profiles in the field. At 5/1, he looks a more attractive betting proposition than the favourite because he brings solid current form without needing to find much more. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Sound And Vision – 8/1 with Paddy Power
Jockey: Kieran Shoemark | Trainer: Ed Walker | Form: 31-532 | Rating: 79 | Topspeed: 73
Sound And Vision is the each-way play in a race where a bit of tactical speed and room for improvement could count for plenty. His form figures are neat enough, he arrives off a placed effort, and his Topspeed mark of 73 stacks up very well in this company. Being a 3yo with only a handful of runs under his belt, there is every chance Ed Walker can squeeze a bit more out of him yet, and stall 1 could be a useful position if Shoemark gets the fractions right. The 8/1 on offer makes him easy to like as an each-way punt, especially with three places on offer in a deep but not impossible contest. Bet: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Northcliff is the win play at around 5/1 because he brings the most convincing recent handicap form and looks ready to cash in. Sound And Vision is the each-way option at 8/1, with his low draw and unexposed 3yo profile making him interesting. The obvious danger is Veil Of Clouds, who is progressive and hard to dismiss, but he is short enough in a race with depth.

19:28 – Gay Kindersley Amateur Jockeys’ Handicap
Race Details: 1m 1f | Class 5 | Going: 5.10 & 5.45 +5yds and 7.28 +7yds) (Good to firm, good in places (goingstick 7.5) (watered) (rail movements) | | flat
This looks a perfectly ordinary late-evening amateur riders’ handicap, which usually means it is anything but straightforward. Kimeko Glory arrives on the back of a win and is the obvious one for the market to latch on to, while Beach Point has been knocking on the door often enough to make him a major player if Goodwood suits. Gone Rogue is another last-time-out winner with momentum, and Pride Of Nepal has been in rude health in this grade before bumping into a stiffer task. The shape of the race suggests track position and timing will matter around here, especially over 1m1f on quick ground. It is not a deep race, but it is a trappy one, with a few exposed handicappers facing a couple who still look well enough treated.
Top Selections
1. Kimeko Glory – 9/4 with Betfair
Jockey: Mr James Hills | Trainer: Charles Hills | Form: 450431 | Rating: 64 | Topspeed: 50
Kimeko Glory is the percentage call. That latest success was no fluke, and the recent figures suggest he has been building towards it rather than stumbling upon an easy opening. An opening mark in the mid-60s still gives him room in a race like this, and Charles Hills is not in the habit of wasting bullets in these amateur events. From stall 9 he may need a sensible ride from Mr James Hills, but if he gets cover and arrives late, he has the profile of the one most likely to improve past these exposed rivals. At 9/4, he is no giveaway, but he is still hard to oppose.
Bet: WIN
2. Grey Fox – 9/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Mr Simon Walker | Trainer: Emma Lavelle | Form: 9-6623 | Rating: 59 | Topspeed: 45
Grey Fox makes plenty of each-way appeal in a race where a few shorter-priced rivals are more solid than exciting. The veteran has crept back into form, with the recent 6623 sequence showing he is still competitive off this sort of mark, and Simon Walker aboard in an amateur handicap always catches the eye. Draw 10 is not ideal, but this old boy tends to run his race when conditions suit and fast ground holds no fears. He does not need to improve much to get involved, and 9/1 looks fair compensation given his consistency and the strength of his rider booking. He is the sensible each-way punt.
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Kimeko Glory is the win bet, as he is the one with the clearest recent upward curve and the least guesswork attached. Grey Fox is the each-way alternative at a much bigger price, especially with three places on offer and Simon Walker an obvious asset. The main dangers look Beach Point, who has been threatening to land one, and Gone Rogue, another arriving here off a win.
