The going is good to soft with the possibility of a shower or two.

The Vintage Stakes is the first of the Group races – G2 – and it is over 1400m for the 2yos with 9 to run.  Haarlem is by far the most experienced of these as this will be his 6th start.  Richard Hannon trains this son of Phoenix of Spain and Sean Levey will ride and they are on 11/4.  Golden Mind is by Galileo Gold and the Gosdens and Dettori combine here with the quote being 3/1.  Some good reports about Iberian – 9/2 for Charlie Hills and Will Buick and we will add Soldier's Gold by Soldier's Call on 14/1 for Hugo Palmer and Richard Kingscote.

The Lennox is also over 1400m and has 7 runners headed by Kinross on 11/10 for Gosdens-Dettori and Brian Meehan's Isaac Shelby on 2/1 with Sean Levey riding.

The Goodwood Cup is over the Melbourne Cup trip of 3200m with the Ascot Gold Cup 1-2 heading the market – Courage Mon Ami is 2/1 for Gosdens-Dettori and Coltraine 3/1 for Balding- Oisin Murphy.  We rather like the bonny filly Emily Dickinson who of course has a bit of a weight advantage and she is on 11/2 for Aidan O'Brien and Ryan Moore.  And we will of course continue to support the stablemate Broome who will enjoy the return to the 3200m trip.  William Buick has been booked for the ride.
