Glorious Goodwood Horse Racing Picks and Commentary
22 to 1 Tom’s International Tips
Tuesday – Glorious Goodwood
2:25 – Race 2
Japan Racing Association Vintage Stakes (Group 2) (IRE Incentive Race) Cl1 (2yo) 7f
5 – Galeron – Draw 3
2 starts 1 win
Won vs short field at Goodwood last out at 6F
He was the last of 4 within a couple of lengths back, made up the ground
First start, issues at the gate cost him any chance of winning
Twice over Goodwood course doesn’t hurt either
6 – Holloway Boy – Draw 4
1 start 1 win
Won in listed race at Royal Ascot by 1L at 40-1. He was the only horse who hadn’t started a race and made the owner/trainer look very smart about the placement in this race
Very impressive run and will be the favorite here
Bet down this time but can he repeat?
9 – Mysterious Night – Draw 7
2 starts 1 win 1 second 1 third
Win was 2nd start in novice race going 6.5F winning by 1 1/2L as big favorite but the time was a bit slow
Tried group 2 company last out and ran an ok 3rd behind by 3 1/4L
This is one who my want a longer distance so made suited for 7F?
3:00 – Race 3
World Pool Lennox Stakes (Group 2) Cl1 (3yo+) 7f
11 – Sandrine – Draw 7
8 starts 3 wins 1 second 2 thirds
Ran 3rd last out at Newmarket in group 1 for fillies
Best way to describe her race was, she beat everyone else
She’s never won at 1 mile and never ran at 7F for they are giving this a try
She’s a group 2 winner at 2 but her best finish is was last race as 3
She gets weight and will this be here spot to shine?
Price shot
5 – Pogo – Draw 4
33 starts 7 wins 5 seconds 5 thirds
Won last 2 races at 7F in group 3 company and wide margin last out
Not much in his first 2 starts of the season or at the end of last season but now…
He’s a front runner and if he gets his way on the lead, he can hand on here vs this bunch
Steps up in company and has placed in group 2 races
Prefers the good to firm going and has 4 wins at the distance
2 – Kinross – Draw 5
16 starts 4 wins 1 third
Drop from group 1 race at Royal Ascot running 8th at big odds
He pressed the leaders with 1F to go but even finish
First race of the season, he ran 3rd to Pogo in group 3
My concern playing him is the going, the good to firm is questionable but if can run back to his last race, he has a chance to get a placing
3:35 – Race 4
Al Shaqab Goodwood Cup Stakes (Group 1) (British Champions Series) Cl1 (3yo+) 2m
2 – Coltrane – Draw 3
13 starts 5 wins 4 seconds
He won his last 2 races, one listed race by 10L at 2 miles
Here’s a 5-year-old getting better with age because of his races are at lower levels but did the light switch go on and he have a really up and coming stayer?
He’s only been out of the money 1 time going over 2 miles otherwise he has 2 wins 2 seconds
I would be happy to see 10-1 odds
4 – Kyprios – Draw 8
7 starts 5 wins
Won last 3 races in listed, group 3 and group 1 company
He beat some in this field a Royal Ascot and impressive run
Ran midpack last out, moved forward with 1F left and help on
Drops back in distance, is this a better distance for him?
He didn’t like the soft going or the AW but on good to firm, no problem
Favorite
8 – Trueshan
18 starts 12 wins 2 seconds
He hasn’t lost in over 1 year
Last race was a gem because of the weight he gave up to others
Normally, he doesn’t run on good to firm but the came out and said, he’s going to run
Interesting
