Goodwood Racecard - Tuesday 3rd September by Weatherbys

GOODWOOD RACES 2024

TUESDAY 3 SEPTEMBER

OFFICIAL PROGRAMME

WELCOME TO MIDWEEK RACING

Welcome to Goodwood for the ﬁrst of two late summer afternoons of Midweek racing on the Sussex Downs.

Today’s seven-race programme provides opportunities for a wide variety of horses from novice two-year-olds to more accomplished handicappers. With almost £130,000 in prize money at stake, we are assured of some exciting racing.

The feature race this afternoon commemorates the late Peter Willett, an acknowledged expert of the Thoroughbred, Turf historian, author and an architect of the European Pattern - the structure around which Europe’s most signiﬁcant races continue to be run to this day Peter’s contribution to the sport of horseracing is fondly remembered today.

The British EBF Peter Willett Future Stayers’ Maiden Stakes is supported by a valuable handicap celebrating Goodwood’s proud historical association with the Royal Sussex Regiment, a friendship which extends more than 220 years to the very beginnings of racing here on the Downs.

There have been some memorable winners of both contests but one who will perhaps resonate most with Goodwood racegoers in recent years is Aggagio who won the Royal Sussex Regiment Handicap in 2022. Aggagio was bought out of our August Bank Holiday weekend selling race the previous year and proved a very shrewd purchase for Gary and Leanne Robinson’s Aura Racing, winning six times for them under both codes including three more successes here at Goodwood.

Our thanks as ever are due to our race sponsors today, the European Breeders’ Fund, Cleansing Service Group and our Ofﬁcial Fixed Odds Betting Partner William Hill.

I wish them and you a pleasant afternoon’s racing and hope to see you all again when we return for more Midweek racing on Wednesday, 25th September

course characteristics

Goodwood’s pronounced gradients and sharp bends favour the active, handy type of horse, the ﬂuent mover rather than the big, long-striding runner, and this applies especially in short races and when the going is fast.

Race Summary

Pantile Warrior has progressed with each start to date and has to be of interest following a narrow defeat at Newbury. That said, preference is for MIGHTY BOY, who displayed plenty of promise when second in a valuable event at Deauville on his debut and the son of Zarak is entitled to improve for that experience. Watching Stars was well held in fourth on his racecourse bow at Newmarket but should not be discounted. All of the newcomers make some appeal, but Seacruiser is marginally the pick of them.

Win: MIGHTY BOY

Danger: Pantile Warrior
