I thought I would start the Goodwood thread as the Tuesday final decs are now known. I'm looking forward to the clash of 2 year old colts on day 1, with Pinatabu and Lope Y Fernandez taking each other on, plus Visinari stepping up in trip and Richard Hannon running his Superlative winner under a 3lb Group 2 penalty.
 
Skybet boosted Stradivarius, Too darn Hot and Bataash to 6/1 a couple of days ago

I couldn’t resist but I hate knowing that TDH will lose because of the boost jynx
 
Cheers HF, I had an awful GG last year so hoping for some better fortune this year so interested in your thoughts and tips
 
3yr olds get a lot of weight in the Goodwood cup. 15lb
When they run in this race they tend to do well.
3 have a go tomorrow.
I've backed Dashing Willoughby 25-1 ew and South Pacific 40-1 ew.
only 8 left in at moment so fingers crossed nowt else comes out, but I have my doubts.
 
I can't let Bless Him run tomorrow without having a few quid on each way. He's well handicapped imo but I'm not sure he wants 10f. Also put him in an each way Trixie with Cross Counter and Hey Gaman.
 
Love Goodwood, will be heading down at least one day this week.
Anyone with time on their hand this week might want to double up with the New Forest show near Brockhampton, definitely a full days visit but both can be squeezed in one day if one is all you have.

From a punting perspective I’ll be leaving it until as late as possible, rain due tomorrow so the ground at this stage is a guess up...

backed bless him also.
looks well worth a try upped in trip, usually always travels well enough but will need luck as may well get in a shitty position.
 
I like South Pacific in the Goodwood Cup and Speak In Colours in the Lennox Stakes, at decent prices. Would like to see Visinari run well given a 7th furlong.

The draw is a worry but I can't let him run unbacked.

Yeah I’m struggling to see why Mystery Power is so big, has crucial soft ground form too if the rain falls....
 
Day 1 bets:

1:50 - Setting Sail @ 4/1 & Mountain Hunter @ 12/1 E/W

2:25 - Pinatubo @ 15/8 (antepost)

3:00 - Suedois @ 9/1 E/W

3:35 - Stradivarius @ 4/5 (antepost)

4:10 - Cobra Eye @ 13/8

4:45 - Amomentofmadness @ 16/1 E/W

4:15 - Salayel @ 7/2



I have 8 big bets across the week (7 singles and then the 7 horses in a big multiple with battash thrown in too). If I could get 5 winners in the singles and the multiple, it’s been a great week.

Two is those run today... Pinatubo and Stradivarius. So there will be celebrations here if those two could oblige to open up the week.

Good luck to you all for today and for the entire week.

1 Stone 1lb weight for age allowance for the 3yo in Goodwood Cup is obscene. Stradavarius will have his toughest assignment yet. No way should he be odds on having to give that much weight away.
 
1.50 Jazeel 12/1 ew
2.25 Mystery Power 3 places
3.00 Space Traveller 8/1 ew
3.35 Dee Ex Dee 3 and 4 places
4.10 Lost in Time 6/1 ew
4.45 Dark Shot 11/2 ew
5.15 Salayel 7/2 ew

Good luck all

Pity the 3yos inthe field are an average bunch Lobos. If it was soft, Baldings could have a squeak!
