UK Horse Racing Tips: Goodwood

Goodwood Galaxy may have been targeted here and although well beaten at Sandown after trying to make the running, he races off 3lb lower and drops back a furlong. The hat-trick seeking Startled goes from strength to strength but an added 7lb and a rise in class could find him out, and WECHAAD is preferred. Third in the Horris Hill last season, the son of Oasis Dream makes plenty of appeal back in handicap company.
Prediction : 1st Wechaad 2nd Startled 3rd Goodwood Galaxy

Tom Marquand has picked up the ride on Charlie Appleby's Del Maro and although well beaten in the Chester Vase after a slow start, he could do better here. SAXON STREET arrives unbeaten after comfortable wins at Chelmsford and Epsom and the fact that he remains entered in the Derby suggests the son of Saxon Warrior should go well here. Golden Story was third at Chester and could make the frame once again.
Prediction : 1st Saxon Street 2nd Del Maro 3rd Golden Story

Wondervision saw market support on her debut before finishing third at Ascot and she could be a danger to all. Knock Three Times was second at Nottingham on her racecourse bow and is another who can go close, but a chance is taken on COAT OF RED. The Crisfords' Blue Point filly cost 220,000gns as a yearling and if she lives up to her pedigree, she could prove too good for these.
Prediction : 1st Coat Of Red 2nd Wondervision 3rd Knock Three Times

The easy winner of both starts so far this season, Brilliant Star should prove competitive at this higher level. However, the same comment also applies to EARTH SHOT. The daughter of Time Test returned to the fray with an impressive success in a Newmarket maiden over 1m2f, and William Haggas' Oaks entry looks one to keep on the right side of. Just Call Me Angel arrives fresh from winning the Italian 1000 Guineas, but she faces a more daunting task here under a 5lb penalty, and Inis Mor holds stronger claims at the weights.
Prediction : 1st Earth Shot 2nd Brilliant Star 3rd Inis Mor

St Hilda missed out by only a neck at Lingfield last month and has to be of interest, but LADY MAGU may well reverse that form. Only fifth on that occasion, she was forced to race wide turning for home, but found plenty in the closing stages and Roger Varian's yard has hit top form since. Evening Fades is upped in trip for her return to action with Tom Marquand's presence suggesting she's preferred to stable companion Guesstimate.
Prediction : 1st Lady Magu 2nd St Hilda 3rd Evening Fades

Although thwarted in his follow-up bid when runner-up at Newmarket earlier this month, ALIGN THE STARS lost little in defeat. A 2lb rise in the ratings looks fair for the C&D winner and another bold display is forecast. Chilli Queen has proved a model of consistency since switching to Emma Lavelle and she's open to improvement stepping up in trip, while returning duo Spinning Wheel and Finalise add further spice to the mix.
Prediction : 1st Align The Stars 2nd Chilli Queen 3rd Spinning Wheel

Having overcome a troubled passage to score at Windsor earlier this month, a 4lb higher mark shouldn't prevent another good account from Coyy. That was only the three-year-old's second outing after a wind procedure and there could be more to come, but RILEY ROCKS is a shade more compelling. Dylan Cunha's colt supplemented a triumph at Newcastle when following up on his handicap bow at Southwell in March and debuting on turf shouldn't hamper his hat-trick bid. One And Gone and Angel Numbers are other live threats.
Prediction : 1st Riley Rocks 2nd Coyy 3rd One And Gone
