UK Horse Racing Tips: Goodwood

Amongst a small, yet hotly-contested maiden stakes and marginal preference is for BEAUTIFUL SUNRISE, who has shown plenty of promise on both his career starts, including a good second at York last month. A step up in trip should aid his cause given he has run on late previously, so he rates a solid contender. Trillium cannot be underestimated on her debut, while Galeron boasts course and distance experience which could help him get involved.
Prediction : 1st Beautiful Sunrise 2nd Trillium 3rd Galeron

VALSAD gained a first success at Lingfield on his most recent start and the manner of that performance suggested the step into handicap company wouldn't hold him back from progressing further. Nathanael Greene was fourth on his handicap bow at Musselburgh, when not receiving much luck in running, and he is likely to step forward from that display. Bizarre Law didn't run too badly in the London Gold Cup at Newbury and he is capable of better stepping up in trip.
Prediction : 1st Valsad 2nd Nathanael Greene 3rd Bizarre Law

The progressive RED FLYER looked better than ever when keeping on strongly to notch a third success of the campaign at Newmarket last month and, providing he handles this very different track, a 3lb rise may not be enough to anchor him. The prolific Way Of Life will appreciate this return to 1m4f and should remain competitive despite a career-high rating, while it would be no surprise to see Parachute make his presence felt from a sliding mark over his optimum trip.
Prediction : 1st Red Flyer 2nd Way Of Life 3rd Parachute

Plenty went wrong for Rum Cocktail on her seasonal reappearance and better is expected in this lesser event, while handicap debutant Chief White Face can also make his presence felt. However, a chance is taken on Charles Hills' WILLOUGHBY BAY. She is entitled to improve for her comeback run over 6f at Kempton, where she travelled well before weakening late on, and won her latest of two past visits here in impressive fashion.
Prediction : 1st Willoughby Bay 2nd Rum Cocktail 3rd Chief White Face

Candy Shack did some good late work when fourth in a Newbury maiden last month and, with the step up in trip likely to suit, the daughter of Almanzor is an obvious candidate. However, Charlie Appleby's THUNDERSQUALL finished behind some smart performers in two starts at Kempton in February and gets the vote. Country Pyle produced a solid effort when fourth in a competitive handicap at Newbury on her latest start and can also figure.
Prediction : 1st Thundersquall 2nd Candy Shack 3rd Country Pyle

NEW PURSUIT secured the second win of his short career when successful off 4lb lower at Epsom last time and, though both successes have come at that track, he should be able to handle the undulations here and could follow up. Ermin Street was a shade disappointing last time but had been excellent in two starts prior to that and could be worth another chance, while Golden Sands cannot be ignored on his strong form of this term.
Prediction : 1st New Pursuit 2nd Golden Sands 3rd Ermin Street
