Race 2 | 2yo Fillies Conditions (2.25) It will be the first time I’ve ridden
PRINCESSE D’OR, so I don’t know too much, but she’s obviously stepping down markedly in grade from the Queen Mary last time.
Her form before that looks solid enough and hopefully she’s still progressing. It’s a wide-open two-year-old sprint, so it’s hard to be too sure.
Race 3 | G3 Oak Tree Stakes (3.00) SAYIDAH DARIYAN steps up to 1411m for the first time. When I rode her last year, I felt like she could stay further, so hopefully it will suit.
There are 14 of us in here and it’s a race that’s always very competitive. We look to be drawn fine in six, but it’s a tricky race to win and you often need a bit of luck.

Race 5 | G1 Sussex Stakes (4.10) GSTAAD has done very little wrong. He’s never been out of the first two.
Admittedly, he’s got a little bit to find to turn around the form with Bow Echo, but he’s still progressing.
Goodwood is a speed track, so it’s a slightly different test to Ascot, and he’s a very uncomplicated horse who I always look forward to riding.
He never runs bad, quick ground doesn’t bother him at all and he could still be getting better.
PUERTO RICO has been a little bit disappointing in his two runs this year but has had legitimate excuses.
The 1611m at Goodwood should suit him well and I can see him running a much better race at this track.
Bow Echo is entitled to be favourite, and I think Goodwood will suit him, while Opera Ballo looks like being really well suited by Goodwood as well - he’s a high-class horse. It looks a very deep contest.
Race 7 | HKJC World Pool Handicap (5.40) I’ve not been on CRIMSON SPIRIT before. His form is very consistent and he’s a winner at the track already, so ticks a few boxes, but you need plenty of luck to win these 20-runner handicaps at Goodwood.
