Today is Wednesday July 29 — Day 2 of Glorious Goodwood and Sussex Stakes day. The Visit Qatar Sussex Stakes Group 1 over a mile runs at 16:10 this afternoon, worth £850,650 to the winner and widely regarded as the definitive miler's championship of the European season.
Bow Echo — the unbeaten Royal Ascot St James's Palace winner who was Horse Racing Oracle AI's NAP of NAPs for the June meeting — is today's NAP for the Sussex Stakes. Five wins from five starts, rated 126, trip and going proven. Billy Loughnane rides for George Boughey. At 11/10, he is the selection.
Yesterday at Goodwood
Scandinavia won the Goodwood Cup at 6/5 for Aidan O'Brien and Ryan Moore, drawing away comfortably over the final two furlongs after leading well over two out. The staying championship went to Ballydoyle's representative convincingly.
Today's Card
The Sussex Stakes at 16:10 is the headline race. The 12-runner field includes Qirat — who won a York Group 3 over seven furlongs last month — alongside Opera Ballo at 3/1, described as the pick of the older runners on ratings after his Queen Anne Stakes performance at Royal Ascot, and Gstaad, the Irish 2,000 Guineas winner.
