Betfred Mile (3:05 Goodwood)- Low draws and weights below 9 stone have dominated this race so the selections are VELOX, who won nicely last time out and his trainer Luca Cumani says he has him primed for this and HEAVY METAL, who won the International Handicap on King George Day for a trainer who has a very good record in this race.

Bonhams Thoroughbred Stakes (2:30 Goodwood)- Shifting Power is clearly the class horse but he is no price for me so he is going to be opposed with BOW CREEK has been running very consistently of late and WINDFAST who will love the ground and deserves a big race win.
King George Stakes (3:40 Goodwood)- EXTORTIONIST has been flying of late thanks mainly to the rattling ground he has encountered. He has that again and will be tough to beat. Demora looks the biggest threat.
4:15 Goodwood- Like all Hannon juveniles around Goodwood, SUNSET SAIL has to be respected especially after his comfortable win last time out. MARKAZ was another who won nicely last time out when he broke his maiden tag at Ascot. George Baker takes the ride so that can only be seen as a positive.
5:25 Goodwood- Decent horses have won this handicap in previous years so it could pay to side with a horse who has a high rating. If we look at ratings of 80 or higher, the one that stands out to me is FIRE FIGHTING. He runs off a mark of 80 following a drop of 2 pounds after his last run. He looks well handicapped so a good run should be in the pipeline, and the drop in trip will aid his cause as well. One a little lower in the weights of interest is ARTFUL ROGUE, who has been running well without winning and the first time cheekpieces could bring out a little improvement. Amanda Perrett does very well at Goodwood too.
And one for Galway...
5:10- ORGILGO BAY. Will love the ground and appears to be in form following his win last time out. His second to Aidan O'Brien's El Salvador on the flat two runs ago looks solid form as well.
Enjoy your Friday
Happy Punting!
