2.25 Goodwood
Visit Qatar Oak Tree Stakes (Group 3), 7f
Harry's tip: Pretty Crystal
Jabaara probably sets the standard after her second to Porta Fortuna last time, but the exploits of Kathmandu, who is also in opposition, suggests Pretty Crystal is far too big in the market. She had Kathmandu two and a quarter lengths behind her when winning the Nell Gwyn on her reappearance, and given that one finished second in the French 1,000 Guineas on her next start before running well in the Prix Jean Prat and Newbury runner-up Dance Sequence filed the same position in the Epsom Oaks, the form could hardly be stronger. She has been tried over two different trips since, finding the 1,000 Guineas too far before things happened too quickly when dropped to 6f at York next time, which makes the return to 7f look ideal. If she regains that form, with first-time cheekpieces enlisted to help, she will prove her price all wrong.
3.00 Goodwood
Jaeger-Lecoultre Molecomb Stakes (Group 3), 5f
Harry's tip: Usdi Atohi
Aesterius and Celandine bring really solid form to the table, but I liked what I saw from Usdi Atohi at Tipperary last time and she gets the vote. She showed bundles of pace that day, leading for much of the way and rallying once headed to get back up, despite rolling around in the closing stages. That took her record over 5f to two from two, having got the better of the talented California Dreamer (fifth in the Albany and runner-up in a Group 2 since) on her debut, and showed her last of six behind Fairy Godmother to be all wrong, albeit she had excuses for that run anyway as she took a false step at halfway and was on the back foot thereafter. She gets the services of Ryan Moore and should go well.
3.35 Goodwood
Qatar Sussex Stakes (Group 1), 1m
Harry's tip: Facteur Cheval
I had Rosallion as a comfortable winner of this before he taken out on Tuesday morning. His departure makes things tricky, but it could open up the door for Facteur Cheval, who chased home Paddington in this contest 12 months ago. Three-year-olds Henry Longfellow (121) and Notable Speech (122) aren't rated as high as last year's winner, who was rated 125, and the French raider is officially a 7lb better horse this time around, having finished second in the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes in October before claiming the Dubai Turf at Meydan in March. It's easy to put a line through his run in the Queen Anne, as he raced up the centre with just one other and then wandered around when left alone, and there's every chance he can give the weight away.
4.10 Goodwood
British Stallion Studs EBF Fillies' Handicap, 1m2f
Harry's tip: Al Anoud
Al Anoud was unraced at two but showed plenty of promise as a three-year-old, winning both of her starts over 1m2f at Chelmsford and Salisbury, and the form of each win looks very solid, given the runner-up at Chelmsford has won since and is now rated 91 and he was giving the 97-rated Scenic 7lb when beating that one by a head at Salisbury. She was just a half a length away from remaining unbeaten on her handicap debut at Windsor, and the winner has since finished third in the John Smith's Cup at York and the Chesterfield Cup at this meeting on Tuesday off 6lb and 7lb higher respectively, giving the impression Al Anoud remains well handicapped off a mark of 89. She should be much happier back over this trip, having found 1m4f at Pontefract too far last time, and Ralph Beckett has won this contest two of the last four years.
4.45 Goodwood
British Stallion Studs EBF Alice Keppel Fillies' Conditions Stakes, 5f
Harry's tip: Havana Gila
Top-rated Convo will be a huge threat if the thunderstorms materialise, while Coto De Caza could be useful, but I can't believe the price of Havana Gila, given her best piece of form came on her only start over 5f. That came when winning a York novice in June, when she had the reopposing Baileys Jubilation five and three-quarter lengths behind, and that form has worked out supremely well, with the next four home all winning since. She showed promise on her debut too, finishing little more than three lengths behind Windsor Castle third Aviation Time, and can be forgiven a poor run in a Listed race at Newmarket last time.
5.20 Goodwood
Ridgeview Fillies' Handicap, 1m
Harry's tip: Metaverse
Metaverse got off the mark at the third attempt when trying 7f for the first time at Kempton in January and has done well since returning to that trip on her last three starts, going close the first two times before comfortably going one better at Newmarket last time. She lost out by just a head when running in this company on her penultimate start, form that has been franked with the winner going in again since, and 3lb rise shouldn't stop her going close again for local trainer David Menuisier.
