    I think they’ll need to up the trip a furlong of this race next year, get it away from the bend.

    A very interesting race and well done Stradivarius backers, he looks a nice horse but doubtful about his Leger chances.

    A shambles at the start, far, far too soon to the bend. Even Mr Gosden agreed with that sentiment. I’d be surprised if this race was run at the same distance next year.

    Yes agreed Ginger & Charles that bend came too quickly.
    Wish I’d been there to see Stradivarius in the paddock he certainly stood out on looks.

    The Queen is still waiting for a winner as Michael Stoute did a disappearing act for the TV Cameras today.

    Looking forward to the final day although will be watching from Newmarket, good luck Charles in the Fantasy Ascot Telegraph Comp, we seem to be having a Big Orange/OOSG moment at the top :wink: Jac

    Result of Goodwood Cup has justified the upping of the Queens Vase to Group 2.
    Stradivarius winning and Vase 5th Desert Skyline 2nd.
