UK Horse Racing Tips: Goodwood

Wadacre Gomez has struck on two of his last three starts on the all-weather and his latest victory showed that he is still ahead of the handicapper. With William Buick booked, he has to be taken seriously, but a chance can be taken on STAY WELL. Hughie Morrison's six-year-old finished third behind Wadacre Gomez before filling the runner-up spot behind Enfjaar next time, but he is much better off at the weights with both and is taken to go close. Bystander was a smart winner of a hot handicap at Newcastle last time and is another to watch out for.
Prediction : 1st Stay Well 2nd Wadacre Gomez 3rd Bystander

The Parthenon has some fancy entries for the end of his campaign this year so must be held in high regard by his powerful connections and he did what was required to shed his maiden tag at Gowran Park. However, AOMORI CITY has a lot more substance to his form after finishing third in a Group 2 at Newmarket earlier in the month. Charlie Appleby's juvenile makes only his third career start and he could find the improvement needed going up in trip. Electrolyte (second) beat Cool Hoof Luke (fourth) in the Coventry and is another to note.
Prediction : 1st Aomori City 2nd The Parthenon 3rd Electrolyte

Kinross has taken two of the last three renewals of this contest and has struck at Group 2 level five times, but his form this year isn't as strong and he looks worth taking on with NOBLE DYNASTY. The son of Dubawi beat English Oak (second) by two lengths at Newmarket in May and took another step forward when scoring in the Criterion next time. If he can run to the level of those efforts, then he could prove hard to beat. Audience was a surprise winner of the Lockinge in May and wasn't disgraced when fifth in the Queen Anne.
Prediction : 1st Noble Dynasty 2nd Kinross 3rd Audience

Ascot Gold Cup hero KYPRIOS had an epic battle with Stradivarius when he won this in 2022 and has thrived at the top table in this division ever since. While the son of Galileo didn't get the chance to defend his crown here 12 months ago, he can make up for lost time by cementing his authority over some old rivals. Sweet William was six lengths behind the selection in the Gold Cup but has a feasible chance of getting closer over this shorter trip. Coltrane was third in last year's renewal and is another to bear in mind.
Prediction : 1st Kyprios 2nd Sweet William 3rd Coltrane

A remarkable feat by both horse and trainer, Lord Riddiford has won the last three renewals of this race and is a must for the shortlist. However, this is a competitive edition and it may be time for the younger brigade to take centre stage, with fellow C&D winner FAIR WIND suggested as the first one to consider. The form of his recent Ascot win was boosted by the runner-up scoring there on Saturday. Jm Jungle, Democracy Dilemma and Equilateral are others with strong credentials.
Prediction : 1st Fair Wind 2nd Lord Riddiford 3rd Jm Jungle

Previous experience has been a key factor to winning this in the past and, with that in mind, JOUNCY is a strong fancy to make amends for a narrow odds-on defeat at Kempton most recently. The winner of that race was a commendable third in the Newbury Super Sprint, which was no mean feat given the high ratings of those who finished in close proximity. I Maximus appeals strongly after a promising debut third at Newbury, when he was most definitely the horse to take out of the race. Carrados and Irish raider Gannas also make the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Jouncy 2nd I Maximus 3rd Carrados

STRUTTING returned to handicap company in the Sandringham at Royal Ascot last month and belied odds of 33/1 to finish an excellent second. This looks less competitive and another bold bid is expected. Moonspirit scored in impressive fashion at Hamilton and can feature once again, while Mercury Day is another progressive filly bidding for a hat-trick having won at Newmarket with plenty in hand. Newbury winner Circe is worth a second glance and Surveyor is another to consider after landing a decent handicap at Ascot.
Prediction : 1st Strutting 2nd Moonspirit 3rd Mercury Day

All three previous renewals have been won by a three-year-old and MISS BODACIOUS makes most appeal. She failed to stay the 7f trip in a tough handicap at Newmarket latest, but had won in fine style over this distance before that and Karl Burke's filly gets another chance. Haydock winner Balmoral Lady and Dance And Romance, who scored at Nottingham on her handicap bow, are other three-year-olds open to further progress. Of the older sprinters, Executive Decision won this last year and both Katey Kontent and Star Of Lady M arrive in good form.
Prediction : 1st Miss Bodacious 2nd Balmoral Lady 3rd Dance And Romance
