TrackLab Insight
The field's standout: rated five pounds clear of his rivals and the market favourite at 2.58. He finishes in the frame roughly 8 times out of every 10 races, but he has never won on right-handed galloping tracks like Goodwood—that's a real concern in this company.

Market favourite (2.58)
TrackLab Insight
The only course winner in the field—he's won all three races at Goodwood, including a Class 1 victory here in July 2025. Fresh off a win at York just 31 days ago and owning a 60% record on good ground, he's tailor-made for this race and the chief danger to Lake Forest.

Trainer Quotes
Apr 2026
"I can't say any of us were expecting him to win the Sussex, but Richard Kingscote was brilliant on him. He was in the best shape he'd been in all year and that combination meant it all came to pass. We're likely to go back to Goodwood for the Celebration Mile and the Sussex again. He might go for the Diomed on Derby weekend along the way. 27-04-26"
TrackLab Insight
The longest absence in the field at 283 days, but his comeback run at Newcastle was a strong second just 31 days ago. He's a Class 1 winner at Doncaster and dangerous on his day, though he struggles badly on fast or standard ground—exactly what he'll face here.
Absent 283 days (longest in field)
TrackLab Insight
Second-rated on the editorial figures and a genuine course specialist with two wins from four at Goodwood, including a Class 1 victory here in July 2025. He ran sixth at Chester just 17 days ago but has the pedigree and track record to bounce back in this race.

Trainer Quotes
Jul 2023
"The son of Expert Eye looks the part. He has done all we had been asking of him at home and we gave him his first run at Chester last Friday, where I thought it would take a nice one to beat him, and he proved me right with a very professional performance in winning on his debut. Danny brought him off the rail as they entered the short straight and in a matter of strides the race was over. I could not be happier with him, and we will wait and see how he recovers from his first day at the races before making any decisions. We are in no rush as I think he has a lovely future. 06-07-23"
TrackLab Insight
The most consistent winner here: 36% win rate across 14 races with two Class 2 victories to his name. Recent form has dipped sharply across Newcastle, Epsom and Haydock, and he's without a win in his last 14 races, so timing may be against him.
One of the more successful in the field (5 career wins)
Trainer Quotes
Apr 2025
"He got very tired in the slow ground on his return in the Gladness Stakes. He wants a bit of cut but he doesn't want it deep and holding like it was at the Curragh and you can put a line through that. He looks stronger than last year and will go for the Listed Spring Trophy at Haydock on May 10. Then, all being well, he'll go back there for the Group 3 John of Gaunt Stakes on May 31. 11-04-25"
TrackLab Insight
The standout athlete: 46% win rate (nearly 1 in 2 races) across 13 outings, with 71% success at this trip. But he's stepping down two classes and carries the burden of never having won on good ground—if the track stays normal, that could prove decisive.
Drops 2 classes from usual level
Best record at this trip (5 from 6)
Best career win rate in field (1 in 2)
TrackLab Insight
Chester is where Holguin turns up—he's won two Class 1 races there, which is genuinely rare air. But he's never won at Goodwood, and his last outing was a third-place finish at Chester just 17 days ago, suggesting he may not have recovered his best form yet.
Among the more experienced (17 career races)
TrackLab Insight
At three years old, he's the youngest and least experienced in the field, stepping down two classes from Class 2. He's never raced on normal ground and lacks the proven form against this level—his 50% win rate applies only to Kempton Park, not Goodwood.

How do odds work?
The first number is what you win, the second is what you bet. So 5/2 means you win £5 for every £2. 4/1 means you win £4 for every £1. The bigger the first number, the less likely bookmakers think the horse will win — but the more you'd win if it does.
