Goodwood Racing Tip

HURRICANE IVOR has to be a big player in this contest as he is the joint 11/4 favourite* (betting odds recorded 18:39 GMT on July 30th 2021 at William Hill).

He looks to be a great sprinter in the making and he looks to have a stack more potential to go. There was a win for him on his penultimate run and may well get close to another.

There was a runner-up spot for Hurricane Ivor at Ascot on his latest three weeks ago. That was a big field and appeared to thrive on the longer trip.

FRESH is probably his biggest threat in this one. There has been a 3lb rise for him after going very close in Wokingham.

He has a similar profile and ability to Hurricane Ivor and they should have a great battle.

The final selection for the shortlist is PUNCHBOWL FLYER. He has taken a win in three of his last four efforts.

He enjoys the soft ground and picked up the Wokingham at Windsor on his latest, for which he carries a 6lb penalty.

Goodwood Racing Tip

WONDERFUL TONIGHT looks tough to beat in this contest and she is the 8/11 odds-on favourite* (betting odds recorded 18:39 GMT on July 30th 2021 at William Hill).

He completed a hattrick with a victory on his reappearance. That was in the Hardwicke and with some more rain expected, that will just boost her chances.

Wonderful tonight picked up a couple of Group 1 victories and even under a penalty here, is probably going to get her nose in front.

ALBAFLORA was a long way back from Wonderful Tonight in the Hardwicke and for this next meeting with that rival, she is 3lb better off than last time.

She will probably be firmly in the mix in this one and DIVINELY too.

She receives a weight-for-age allowance and that puts her well in the frame for a potential run at this.

Goodwood Racing Tip

FARASI LANE is worth a look in this one for horse racing betting at 13/2* (betting odds recorded 18:39 GMT on July 30th 2021 at William Hill).

He picked up a score for Tom Ward last time out, picking up a handicap at Sandown on a 7f trip. That was a month ago and improved again to land that.

Farasi Lane retains the cheekpieces from that and does come up 5lb.

He will have to dig deep for further improvement in a tougher fixture but looks to be in good heart at the moment.

MASTER ZOFFANY has won two of his last three. So he warrants some respect as well. He enjoyed a strong pace to score at Chester at this distance last month.

If the pace is there in this race, then he should have a good chance.

SPIRIT OF BERMUDA is sitting on a hat-trick chance. He got the second of those scores at Newmarket three weeks ago under a 6lb penalty.

He needs to be respected and is the current favourite in Goodwood racing.

Goodwood Racing Tip

BICKERSTAFFE at 9/1 looks a good fit for the contest* (betting odds recorded 18:39 GMT on July 30th 2021 at William Hill).

This race looks as if it will suit him perfectly and he will be running under a 6lb penalty. There was a victory for him three weeks ago. A strong pace puts him well in this one.

POWER OVER ME is rapidly going in the right direction.

He has been taking his form forward wonderfully after getting over the line first at Epsom a month ago but ending up getting disqualified for being light in the weights.

But he’s progressive and a threat.

FIRST FOLIO has some strong claims here as well, having won two of his three handicaps this season. The latest of those was in a valuable 6f contest at York in June.

Goodwood Racing Tip

NUITS ST GEORGES piques plenty of interest at 15/2* (betting odds recorded 18:39 GMT on July 30th 2021 at William Hill).

He is sitting on a hattrick chance here and his two recent wins were comfortable, with something to spare. One of those was over course and distance.

Nuits St Georges is in top form right now and is worth rolling with. URBAN ARTIST is another that could threaten.

She took a runner up spot in a Group 3 contest at this distance and looks as if she could have something to offer as she makes a return to handicapping.

AADDEEY put in an eye-catching run in the John Smith’s Cup at York and the move up to this trip should suit him well.

He has been putting in very decent efforts from a higher mark and she could easily get herself into this one.

Goodwood Racing Tip

FLYING SECRET is the 11/4 selection for this one* (betting odds recorded 18:39 GMT on July 30th 2021 at William Hill).

He picked up a runner up spot at Ascot in a minor event three weeks ago. She was up against some more experienced runners there and went well.

KHANJAR was fourth in that same race and that bit of racetrack experience could prove valuable.

He looks like a very good prospect and should deliver an improved performance.

When it comes to experience, TARTAN CHIEF has had two runs under his belt.

He took a second-place finish under three weeks ago at Salisbury and was clearly still green in that one. There’s more to come.
