Glorious Goodwood Day Four Preview: Will Battaash sprint to success again?

Others to watch include Final Song who finished fourth in the 1000 Guineas, but looks out of form, while Breathtaking Look can’t be overlooked to place here.

14:15 The Bonhams Thoroughbred Stakes

A small field will mean all eyes are on Khaloosy after an impressive handicap run in the Brittania Stakes at Ascot, beating a field of 21. Trainer Roger Varian may look to field Khaloosy in Group 1 races if he can pull off another expected success here.

My Oberon is another real prospect with two Novice wins at Newmarket and York in recent months suggesting big things could be to come, while Tilset has also looked promising in two recent runs at Newcastle.

15:15 The King George Stakes

Supreme sprinter Battaash had an excellent 2019 including a third win in this race, while his only run so far of 2020 saw a comfortable victory at Ascot, winning by 2 1/4 lengths. Liberty Beach placed third in that race and could do so again here, although he’s unlikely to match the pure pace of the favourite.

Glass Slippers was also present at Ascot, but failed to give a good account of himself, finishing fifth and well off the pace. Despite that, Glass Slippers is certainly capable of better, as displayed when winning the Group 1 Prix de l’Abbaye at Longchamp in 2019.

15:45 The Queen’s Plate Glorious Stakes

Communique is the form leader and favourite here with two runner-up places at Newmarket and York in recent weeks. The second at Newmarket saw him outclass both Jim Crowley’s ride Desert Encounter and Alounak, with the former returning here after winning in 2019.

An impressive showing in the Hardwicke at Ascot means Alounak can’t be counted out either and while Communique perhaps has the slight edge based on that Ascot run, expect all three to contest.
