Glorious Goodwood is widely acknowledged as the sporting and social highlight of the entire summer and the iconic five-day festival attracts the sport’s biggest names. This year will be no different, with the Sussex Stakes and Nassau Stakes both lighting up an enthralling week’s racing and punters will be looking to get off to a flyer on Tuesday afternoon.
The best bet of the day comes in the shame of
ANTICIPATED (4/1,
bet365) who is sure to appreciate the drop back to the minimum distance in the Molecomb Stakes (2.30).
Richard Hannon’s son of Whipper looked a juvenile to stay on the right side of when he landed his first two starts this campaign and he lost nothing in defeat when finishing third in the Windsor Castle at Ascot in June. He was only just denied there and his well-publicised burst of acceleration was there for all to see.
The selection looks a seriously pacey individual and five furlongs looks sure to be his optimum trip. Richard Hughes keeps the faith in his ride and he can be expected to finish strongly and return to winning ways.

GUARANTEE (14/1,
BetVictor) who has not found things going his way since his seventh in the St Leger at Doncaster last season.
William Haggas’ four-year-old looked a highly progressive stayer when he landed three races on the bounce in 2012 but poor performances in Group company ever since have been mightily disappointing.
However, after 57 days off the track and a gelding operation Guarantee bounced back to something like his best in the Silver Cup at York last time out there was plenty of encouragement in his fourth behind a well fancied stablemate.
If he can return back to his best and build on his latest performance, then 14/1 looks for too big a price and with all his talent in mind, he rates an attractive each-way bet.
