Hi all,
Looks like were going through a dip in form after an excellent recent run for the service. Let’s hope we can turn things around today. It’s the start of the Goodwood Festival and five days of high-class racing on the Sussex Downs.
Today’s selections are from Goodwood & Galway.
Goodwood
4:45 – Scattering – 5/2 @ Coral & Ladbrokes – Shaped with plenty of promise when 3rd on his racecourse debut at Newcastle last month. Not given a hard ride and should be suited today’s extra furlong.
Galway
6:45 – Draconid – 4/1 @ Coral & Ladbrokes – Has been gelded since finishing 5th of 13 in a Curragh maiden in May. Looks the sort to better in handicaps and makes his handicap debut off what looks a workable mark.
8:15 – Crowns Major – 4/1 @ Coral & Ladbrokes – Has difficult draw to overcome in 22. A bumper winner on his racecourse debut at the Punchestown Festival in April. He’s bred for the flat and shaped well when 3rd of 8 at Bellewstown 26-days ago. That was over 1m 4f and he seems likely to improve for the step up to an extended 2m.
Cheers
John
