Five to follow at Galway and Goodwood on Wednesday
By Alex Scott
Last Updated: Tue 28 Jul 2026
Dave Nevison, Johnny Ward, Mark Rowntree, Andy Stephens (RaceiQ) and Alex Scott share a selection each for another top-class day of action at Galway and Goodwood, live on Racing TV.
2.25 Goodwood: Wild Blossom
Tipster: Mark Rowntree.
Best odds: 13-8.
Wild Blossom sparkled on debut at Carlisle, putting ten lengths between herself and the subsequent Deauville Listed winner/Molecomb Stakes hopeful Crownbreaker.
To some extent, she was a disappointment (10th) in the Queen Mary at Royal Ascot, but that was also a valuable learning experience for not only the filly herself, but for her trainer Karl Burke, and jockey James Doyle.
She simply did too much too soon at Ascot and, if able to deploy her potent turn of foot in a timelier manner at Goodwood, she’ll be right back on track for a productive second half of the season.
4.10 Goodwood: Opera Ballo
Tipster: Alex Scott.
Best odds: 9-2.
The four-year-old has been better than ever this season, winning the Group One Jebel Hatta in tremendous style, beating Field Of Gold by three lengths under a 5lb penalty to win the bet365 Mile, and most recently, finishing a close up third in the Queen Anne Stakes having set a blistering pace in front.
His record reads seven wins from ten starts, and his three defeats have all come on straight tracks. This return to a bend at a more speed-favouring course is likely to play to his strengths and he is usually very fast into stride from the gates – he is drawn on the inside of Bow Echo here.
George Boughey's colt did not get things his own way last time and may confirm form here ahead of Gstaad.

5.00 Goodwood: Supreme King
Tipster: Dave Nevison.
Best odds: 17-2.
Supreme King has recently run over further, and then shorter than six furlongs - the trip where all of his wins have been achieved.
The David Evans-trained sprinter has been campaigned in typical style for the yard and has been second three times since winning in June, but looks to have done well with a low draw, and the booking of Oisin Murphy certainly looks positive in this massive field.
5.40 Goodwood: Goldmoyne
Tipster: RaceiQ nap of the day (Andy Stephens).
Best odds: 17-2.
Goldmoyne has been knocking on the door and should again go well from stall 6.
RaceiQ’s study of 85 similar seven-furlong races reveals 48 have been won by a runner drawn between one and seven, with the Actual versus Expected being 1.34 and 57.59% of rivals beaten.
Horses drawn 8 to 13 have been successful in 24 races, with the A/E being 0.86 and percentage of rivals beaten being 50.33%.
Meanwhile, those drawn 14 to 20 have taken the spoils 13 times, with the A/E being 0.62 and percentage of rivals beaten falling to 41%.
The message is clear then: low numbers are best with runners breaking from gates four, five or six winning five of the past nine editions.
Goldmoyne has the early speed to take full advantage of his favourable berth and represents a stable in terrific form. And with smart apprentice Mason Paetel taking off 5lb, he also receives weight from all his rivals.
6.40 Galway: Rocky's Diamond
Tipster: Johnny Ward.
Best odds: 12-1.
Rocky’s Diamond has been aimed at this race, and is a sophomore who was only getting off the mark chasing at this venue in September.
He should stay out of trouble, is trained by Declan Queally, has the assistance of Michael Kenneally and is lower than his hurdles mark, so 12-1 will do.
