13:50 – Coral Rewards Shaker Handicap (GBBPlus Race)
Race Details: 1m 3f | Class 2 | Going: 7.0) (watering) (rail movements (Good, good to firm in places (goingstick) | | flat
A sharp little three-year-old handicap to start the card and it looks a proper Goodwood puzzle rather than a penalty kick. Hatteen arrives as the obvious solid option after getting off the mark and he has the profile of one still going the right way, but this is deeper than a routine summer handicap. Infraad is interesting dropping in with a lofty mark of 109 and William Haggas runners in races like this always command respect, while Cannes has a bit to prove after a flop last time. Tierra Del Toro still has upside for Ralph Beckett and Bay Royale is another unexposed type, but the shape of the race suggests tactical speed and balance around this track could be as important as raw ability. It looks competitive, but not impossible to solve.
Top Selections
1. Hatteen – 5/2 with Betfair
Jockey: Oisin Murphy | Trainer: Andrew Balding | Form: 35-221 | Rating: 103 | Topspeed: 101
Hatteen is the one I want on side. His form figures tell a straightforward story of a colt learning his job and improving with racing, and that latest win suggests he is ready for a race of this nature. A Topspeed of 101 is a healthy figure in this field, and he does not look like one who has hit his ceiling yet. Oisin Murphy is a notable booking for a track where rhythm and position matter, and Balding’s progressive middle-distance three-year-olds are always worth respecting at this stage of the summer. At 5/2 he is hardly hidden, but he still looks the likeliest winner if reproducing the upward curve. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Tierra Del Toro – 7/1 with Bet365
Jockey: James Doyle | Trainer: Ralph Beckett | Form: 212-39 | Rating: 106 | Topspeed: 96
Tierra Del Toro makes plenty of each-way appeal in a race where a few of the market principals are short enough. Beckett’s colt was a useful juvenile and his mark of 106 says he has not been missed, but there was enough in his earlier form to think a race like this is within range if he settles and gets the gaps from stall 1. The latest ninth does not read well in isolation, though I am more inclined to forgive one ordinary run than desert a horse with his baseline ability. James Doyle is exactly the sort you want weaving through at Goodwood, and 7/1 looks fair for an each-way punt. Bet: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Keep it simple: Hatteen is the win play because he brings the cleanest progressive profile and a recent victory that suggests more is to come. Tierra Del Toro is the each-way alternative at a fairer price, especially with three places on offer. Infraad is the obvious danger on figures, while Cannes is risky but not one to dismiss completely if bouncing back.

14:25 – British Stallion Studs EBF Alice Keppel Fillies’ Conditions Stakes (GBB/IRE Incentive Race)
Race Details: 5f | Class 2 | Going: 7.0) (watering) (rail movements (Good, good to firm in places (goingstick) | | flat
This looks a smart little juvenile fillies’ sprint rather than a throwaway conditions event, with several bringing proper early-season form to the table. Wild Blossom sets the standard on the figures after a debut win and a solid effort in defeat next time, while Fast Track arrives on the back of a taking success and has the sort of profile to keep improving. Hidden Gift is respected, but she doesn’t look quite as straightforwardly progressive as the front pair, and Zigazig Ah has done little wrong in winning her last two. Goodwood’s sharp 5f can be a stern enough examination for inexperienced two-year-olds, so pace, track position and the ability to handle the downhill speed test will matter plenty. It’s competitive, but not impossible to solve.
Top Selections
1. Wild Blossom – 13/8 with Betfair
Jockey: James Doyle | Trainer: K R Burke | Form: 10 | Rating: 106 | Topspeed: 103
Wild Blossom is the one they all have to beat. Her figures already mark her down as the class act in the line-up, with a standout 106 rating and 103 Topspeed, and that combination is hard to ignore in a race like this. She won first time up and then wasn’t disgraced at all when beaten next time, which can happen with sharp two-year-olds who meet deeper company early. Burke’s juveniles are usually streetwise and James Doyle is a major positive around this place, especially over the minimum trip where timing is everything. At 13/8 she is no giveaway, but she’s the most likely winner and very hard to oppose. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Fast Track – 6/1 with William Hill
Jockey: Oisin Murphy | Trainer: Andrew Balding | Form: 3201 | Rating: 99 | Topspeed: 97
Fast Track appeals as the each-way play because she’s already shown a useful level of form and still looks like a filly going the right way. That latest win suggested things are clicking, and her 99 rating and 97 Topspeed say she belongs in this grade. The inside draw could be a real asset if Murphy gets her organised early, and Balding’s youngsters often progress with racing rather than peaking immediately. She’s not quite as flashy on the raw numbers as Wild Blossom, but at 6/1 she makes a lot more appeal from a value angle and looks the type to run her race. In a nine-runner field, she is a solid each-way punt. Bet: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Keep it simple: Wild Blossom is the win play because she sets the clear form standard and has the best figures in the field. Fast Track is the each-way alternative at a fairer price, especially from stall 1 with Murphy booked. Hidden Gift and Zigazig Ah are the obvious dangers if either finds another step forward, but the main betting angle is win on Wild Blossom and each-way on Fast Track.

15:00 – Rolls-Royce Oak Tree Stakes (Group 3) (Fillies & Mares)
Race Details: 7f | Class 1 | Going: 7.0) (watering) (rail movements (Good, good to firm in places (goingstick) | | flat
This is a proper Oak Tree, too, with the older fillies taking on a smart-looking three-year-old team and no shortage of plausible winners. Flora Of Bermuda arrives here off a big run and sets the standard alongside Sayidah Dariyan on official figures, while Zanthos and Planet Seeker bring the weight-for-age angle into play for the younger generation. Goodwood’s 7f can punish the unlucky, so draw, pace and a clear passage will matter as much as raw ability. Dash Of Azure has bits of form that put her in the mix, and Radiant Beauty comes here on the back of a win, but this still looks like a race where proven class should rise to the top. Strong contest, but not impossible to unpick.
Top Selections
1. Flora Of Bermuda – 10/3 with William Hill
Jockey: James Doyle | Trainer: Andrew Balding | Form: 39-101 | Rating: 121 | Topspeed: 97
Flora Of Bermuda makes plenty of appeal in a race where solid Group form counts for plenty. She is one of the joint top-rated runners on 121 and comes here after getting back on the scoresheet, which suggests she is right back at concert pitch. Balding’s mare has the tactical pace for 7f and James Doyle is exactly the sort you want around Goodwood when gaps appear and vanish in a heartbeat. At 10/3 she is hardly a secret, but that still looks fair enough given her profile, current form and proven level. She holds the strongest all-round claims. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Planet Seeker – 6/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Jamie Spencer | Trainer: Ralph Beckett | Form: 13-41 | Rating: 116 | Topspeed: 91
Planet Seeker is the one who looks overpriced if you think the three-year-olds can make a serious impact. She is already up to a very healthy 116, gets in here with just 125, and her profile screams progressive rather than exposed. The recent win was exactly what you wanted to see before stepping into a race like this, and Beckett knows how to place a filly on the rise. Jamie Spencer around Goodwood over 7f is an intriguing booking too, because a strong traveller getting delivered late can be a potent combination here. At 6/1, she looks the value play in the field. Bet: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Flora Of Bermuda is the win play because she brings the strongest established form and arrives here in good order. Planet Seeker is the each-way punt at 6/1, with her low weight and upward curve making plenty of sense in a 14-runner Group race. The obvious dangers are Sayidah Dariyan, who has the class, and Zanthos, who is dangerous if bouncing back.

15:35 – Veuve Clicquot Molecomb Stakes (Group 3)
Race Details: 5f | Class 1 | Going: 7.0) (watering) (rail movements (Good, good to firm in places (goingstick) | | flat
This looks a proper juvenile sprint rather than a flimsy midsummer Group race. Pershaada and Crownbreaker bring the standout figures on ratings and topspeed, while Adonius arrives unbeaten and open to more after doing nothing wrong in lesser company. El Floridita also has a solid profile and won’t lack for pace, so there should be no hiding place over this sharp 5f. Goodwood’s downhill test can expose inexperience, though, and that makes proven speed and professionalism especially important. Pershaada’s last run can be marked up despite the defeat, while Crownbreaker gets the fillies’ allowance and already has numbers that fit comfortably at this level. It is competitive, but not impossible to solve if you trust the strongest form.
Top Selections
1. Pershaada – 3/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Sean Levey | Trainer: Richard Hannon | Form: 3214 | Rating: 114 | Topspeed: 112
Pershaada sets the standard on the figures and I’m not in a hurry to desert her because of one defeat. That fourth still came off a mark of 114 and her earlier form reads very well for a race of this nature. Sean Levey knows exactly how to ride these sharp Hannon juveniles, and this filly looks the type to be suited by a truly run 5f round here. At 3/1 she is not exactly missed by the market, but she is the one with the clearest blend of class, speed and experience. In a race where plenty are promising, she brings the most solid Group-race credentials. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Crownbreaker – 11/2 with Paddy Power
Jockey: David Egan | Trainer: Kevin Philippart De Foy | Form: 3251 | Rating: 114 | Topspeed: 113
Crownbreaker makes plenty of each-way appeal because her figures are right there at the top of the pile and she gets in with just 126lb. The last-time-out win was a notable step forward and the 113 topspeed mark says it was no fluke. David Egan is a positive booking for a race that could be decided by who handles the track and secures position early. At 11/2, she looks a fair bit more interesting than some of the exposed colts around her in the market, especially with three places on offer. If Pershaada is the percentage call, Crownbreaker is the value alternative to hit the frame at the very least. Bet: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Pershaada is the win play because she owns the strongest established form and still looks hard to oppose despite her latest defeat. Crownbreaker is the each-way punt at 11/2, with her ratings and fillies’ allowance making her very dangerous. Adonius is the obvious danger if his unbeaten run translates to this level, while El Floridita also has enough pace and substance to get involved.

16:10 – Visit Qatar Sussex Stakes (Group 1)
Race Details: 1m | Class 1 | Going: 7.0) (watering) (rail movements (Good, good to firm in places (goingstick) | | flat
This is a cracking Sussex Stakes on paper, with the younger brigade looking to boss the older milers. Bow Echo arrives unbeaten in five and already has the numbers of a proper top-notcher, while Gstaad brings rock-solid 3yo Group form and the sort of tactical speed that matters around Goodwood’s turning mile. Opera Ballo is the obvious older-horse threat after a very solid campaign, and Ten Bob Tony is the lively outsider if his recent progress is genuine. Plenty of these have smart ratings, but not all mile form is created equal at Goodwood; balance, pace position and the ability to quicken off the bend will decide this. Strong race, but not an impossible puzzle.
Top Selections
1. Bow Echo – 11/10 with William Hill
Jockey: Billy Loughnane | Trainer: George Boughey | Form: 111-11 | Rating: 133 | Topspeed: 126
He is short enough, but there is a reason for it. Bow Echo has done nothing wrong in five starts, his figures are exceptional for a 3yo, and that 133 rating backed up by a 126 Topspeed mark says he is not merely fashionable but genuinely top class. The 8lb weight-for-age swing against the older horses is a major weapon in a race like this, and he looks the one with the most upside still to come. Goodwood can catch one out, but he has the pace and professionalism to hold a position before striking late. At 11/10, he is hard to oppose rather than excitingly priced. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Ten Bob Tony – 16/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Kieran Shoemark | Trainer: Ed Walker | Form: 0-4811 | Rating: 126 | Topspeed: 117
If you want something at a proper each-way price, Ten Bob Tony makes plenty of appeal. He comes here on the back of two wins, has clearly hit a rich vein of form, and his 126 rating means he is not miles off the principals on the bare figures. More interestingly, that 117 Topspeed tells you he has the gears for a race run at championship pace. This is obviously a much deeper contest than the ones he has been winning, but Ed Walker’s runner is a progressive sort and Kieran Shoemark should be able to get him travelling just off the speed. Available at 16/1, he looks the value each-way punt. Bet: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Bow Echo is the straightforward win play and the one with the least guesswork attached. For an each-way angle in a 12-runner field, Ten Bob Tony looks overpriced given his recent progression and strong speed figure. Gstaad is the obvious danger, especially with Ryan Moore up, while Opera Ballo is respected if the older-horse form proves stronger than expected.

17:00 – Coral Charlton Handicap
Race Details: 6f | Class 4 | Going: 7.0) (watering) (rail movements (Good, good to firm in places (goingstick) | | flat
This is exactly the sort of Goodwood sprint handicap that can make fools of plenty of solid opinions: 28 runners, a stack of pace, and very little margin for error over 6f here. Supreme King arrives in better nick than most after a string of seconds, while Under The Twilight is another obvious one after getting back on the scoresheet. The three-year-olds bring plenty of intrigue too, with Calling A Star, Cashbox and Sargent Dennis all lurking on dangerous marks if they can cope with the hurly-burly. Winchurch keeps winning and is impossible to dismiss, but this looks a deeper race than the bare class suggests. In truth it is a tricky puzzle rather than a straightforward betting heat, and I’d much rather side with runners who still look to have a bit in hand.
Top Selections
1. Calling A Star – 10/1 with William Hill
Jockey: William Buick | Trainer: Richard Hughes | Form: 2-1714 | Rating: 87 | Topspeed: 73
Calling A Star appeals as the one with the most upside in a race full of exposed handicappers. He has already shown he can win this season and his latest fourth was not the run of a horse going backwards. As a three-year-old getting in here with just 9st 5lb, he looks the type who can still improve past his current mark, and Buick is an eyecatching booking in a cavalry charge like this. At 10/1, he makes more appeal than several shorter-priced rivals because there is still room for him to step forward again. He looks the right blend of class, weight and untapped potential. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Cashbox – 16/1 with William Hill
Jockey: David Egan | Trainer: Charles Hills | Form: 11-072 | Rating: 85 | Topspeed: 80
Cashbox is the each-way play because his profile is quietly coming together. He won twice early in his career, shaped far better than the bare result on his return, and then took a clear step back in the right direction when runner-up last time. That suggests he is finding his feet again, and an 85 mark does not look beyond him at all if this strongly-run 6f plays to his strengths. Egan is a good booking for a race where timing and track position matter so much, and 16/1 feels a fair bit bigger than his chance. In a race paying six places, he is just the sort of each-way punt I want on side. Bet: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Calling A Star is the win play because he still looks progressive and could easily be ahead of his mark. Cashbox is the each-way alternative at a bigger price, especially with six places on offer. Supreme King is the obvious danger if he gets the breaks, while Under The Twilight and Winchurch are others you cannot leave out of calculations in a race this open.

Tipster Selections

17:40 – HKJC World Pool Handicap
Race Details: 7f | Class 3 | Going: 7.0) (watering) (rail movements (Good, good to firm in places (goingstick) | | flat
This is a proper Goodwood cavalry charge to close the card, with 20 lining up over 7f and plenty arriving with a case of one sort or another. Bobby Bennu, Crimson Spirit, Goldmoyne and Oliver Show dominate the front end of the market, which makes sense given their recent efforts, while old hands like Rhoscolyn and Colombier are dangerous if the race falls right. The Liffey comes here on a winning spree but this is a different test entirely in a deep Class 3. In a field this big, draw, track position and a bit of luck will matter almost as much as raw ability. It looks competitive rather than vintage, but there should be no hiding place.
Top Selections
1. Crimson Spirit – 13/2 with Bet365
Jockey: Ryan Moore | Trainer: Daniel & Claire Kubler | Form: -30142 | Rating: 106 | Topspeed: 90
Crimson Spirit makes plenty of appeal in a race where solid recent form counts for a lot. He has been running with credit all season, winning earlier in the campaign and backing that up with a fourth and then a close second, which suggests he is holding his level very well. An opening mark of 106 does not look beyond him, especially with Ryan Moore booked for a yard that places its horses astutely. Stall 10 looks workable in a race where you do not want to be marooned, and 13/2 is fair rather than flashy in a handicap lacking many obviously well-in runners. He holds strong claims. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Zarathos – 18/1 with Betfair
Jockey: Kieran Shoemark | Trainer: Dylan Cunha | Form: 041125 | Rating: 109 | Topspeed: 98
Zarathos is the one at a bigger price who makes a lot of each-way sense. His profile is that of a horse who has been thriving for a while, with two wins and two seconds in his last five before a respectable enough fifth last time. The topspeed figure of 98 says he has the pace to cope with this sort of test, and stall 9 is another sensible berth in the middle. He is not thrown in off 109, but in a race where several of the principals are fully exposed, 18/1 looks a bit dismissive for a runner bringing this level of consistency and recent competitiveness. He looks the value each-way punt. Bet: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Crimson Spirit is the straight win play: reliable recent form, a good draw and Ryan Moore in a race where those details matter. Zarathos is the each-way alternative at a much bigger price and appeals strongly with five places on offer. The obvious dangers are Bobby Bennu, who should be finishing well, and Goldmoyne, who has been knocking on the door.
