Dragon Symbol for me
Has proven himself a proper group 1 horse the last twice finishing second in the commonwealth Cup and July Cup
Given how weak the division has been battash hasnt had to face many proper horses since blue point was retired
Art power is also interesting back in trip but it looks as though both he and battaash are drawn on the wrong side of the track with all the 5f/6f winners this week coming down the near side
He travels strongly over 6f so hoping the drop to 5f won’t inconvenience him

Suesa for me.
Leap of faith given her first trip to UK, but she was on the wrong side at Ascot.. trainer, Peslier and Buick all believe she is a 5f filly. 9/4 for Ascot was probably a hype price, but it was 9/4 her vs 4/1 Dragon Symbol. Now they’re 12/1 vs 3/1 the other way, worth chancing given the change in conditions now. DS has proven himself in open G1 company now which helps him of course.
With Buick operating at +26.15 and 25 winners from 96 rides at Goodwood, i hope he’s been involved in deciding where to go next with Suesa.
Fairly speculative and risky taking on the king of 5f around Goodwood, but that’s what i’ll do.
Suesa 12/1 e/w.

Hindsight is 20/20 so make the most of it!I had a small bet at 50’s Antepost on Stone of Destiny, and topped up 66’s EW once declared.
Work to do, but at his very best, and he’d have to be, I think he coukd outrun his odds.
Stone of Destiny 66’s EW 4 Places
Tune in at 15:35 and you only need to open your eyes to see it.
7 of the last 8 winners of the race have been drawn 5 or lower. 2 of the last 4 winners drawn in stall 1.
If you’re ruling art power out on the draw then I predict your jaw will be on the floor when Sylvester shows them the door.
I could be wrong but I think 5f at Goodwood may be too sharp for Dragon Symbol now its Good ground and he may get outpaced a bit from a win perspective. He’s won at 5f but that was in a lower grade on a more undulating track. Art Power should give Battaash a nice tow into the race however he may be better over 6 so a doubt about him hanging on. Battaash was an eyecatcher for me after a break and is a 5f specialist so I will stick with him.
ARECIBO for me.
22/1 EW
Glass Slippers also a small EW @ 16/1 as it is her first run of the season but how can you leave out the Breeders Cup Sprint winner.
Very speculative Rev Forecast .
Arecibo
Glass SlippersBest of luck all players
It’s been the worst Goodwood ever betting wise for me need a miracle.
JacThings turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out...“7 of the last 8 winners of the race have been drawn 5 or lower. 2 of the last 4 winners drawn in stall 1.”
Theyve been coming down the near side all weak in the sprints though
If art power or battaash do win il definitely be marking up the performance
Apart from Dragon Symbol all of the good horses are in the lower half of the draw.
Ground is drying out and what they were doing on testing ground won’t be the same as on the drying ground.
Low is the way to go and when the winner is drawn 5 or below then you will know.
Captain Robbo open my eyes I normally see it before it’s happened and that’s my opinion just like QAADER yesterday. Art power looks the easiest option over 5 to you because he blazed off over 6f last time out but it doesn’t work like that
Glass Slippers drawn 5 so should be thereabouts now around 20/1 a great Each Way bet.
Jamie Spencer known for dawdling around at the back needs to get Arecibo out of the stalls PDQ and try to improve his position from a high draw but I’m not ruled by stats just the best horse to win the race and will enjoy it win or lose..just hope it’s win.
Things turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out...Jimmy never assume why I fancy something assumptions are for the challenged not the victorious.
Art Power has a great chance today. On him ew with 4 places. Disappointed if he doesn’t win today but unconscious from shock if he isn’t placed.
I agree Triptych. Looking to get the favourite beaten, I was between Glass Slippers and Liberty Beach but LB carrying a penalty has left me with following you in with Glass Slippers.
Seasonal debut figures of 3-14-5 are a minor concern, but is more than factored in to the 20/1 I feel.
BUY THE SUN
This is basically a match race between Art Power and Bataash.
Battaash is past his best now I believe. If I’m correct then it becomes a one horse race and the question becomes ‘How Far?’ – I predict 2 lengths.
