The agreement with Qatar, the single biggest sponsorship deal ever done

for the benefit of British racing, makes the five-day Qatar Goodwood Festival from Tuesday, July 28 to Saturday, August 1, one of the most significant and valuable meetings in the world.

The partnership results in over £2 million extra being invested into prize money for key races during the Qatar Goodwood Festival as well as a commitment to increase this year-on-year.

Total prize money on offer for the week has increased to over £4.5 million, with Qatar demonstrating passion and support for British racing.

The Group One Qatar Sussex Stakes, on Wednesday, July 29, has a prize fund of £1 million, making the Qatar Goodwood Festival highlight one of the most valuable mile races in the world.

The Group One Qatar Nassau Stakes, the feature race on the final day of the Qatar Goodwood Festival and the most significant mid-summer race for fillies and mares, is worth £600,000.

Each Group Two feature race, the Qatar Lennox Stakes (Tuesday), the Qatar Goodwood Cup (Thursday) and the Qatar King George Stakes (Friday), is boosted to £300,000, recognising their recent records for attracting some of the best horses at their respective distances.

In addition, Qatar has guaranteed that if any current Group Two race achieves Group One status, the prize money will rise to at least £500,000.

Other races to benefit from increased prize money are the two Group Two races for two-year-olds, the Qatar Vintage Stakes and the Qatar Richmond Stakes, each run for £200,000, supporting their status as the proving grounds for future champions.

The Qatar Stewards’ Cup is the headline handicap of the week, with prize money raised to £250,000, and, as part of this uplift, the consolation race rises to £75,000. Both are run on the final day of the Qatar Goodwood Festival. This is a perfect example of how strongly Goodwood and

“I am delighted that Qatar have decided to play a significant part in Goodwood’s position as one of the finest racing experiences in the world.

Lord March, Owner of GoodwoodQatar feel about supporting racing at all levels.

The Qatar Sussex Stakes, the Qatar Goodwood Cup and the Qatar Nassau Stakes remain part of the QIPCO British Champion Series.

Lord March, Owner of Goodwood, said “I am delighted that Qatar have decided to play a significant part in Goodwood’s position as one of the finest racing experiences in the world.

“Goodwood has, for more than 200 years, been about the best racing in the most English of settings, accessible to everyone. Our partnership with Qatar will make an

enormous contribution to horseracing in the UK.

“I would also like to take this opportunity to thank QIPCO for their continued support through our key races in the QIPCO British Champion series. This remains important to me and to the success of racing at Goodwood.”

Mr Hamad Al Attiyah, President of the Qatar Equestrian Federation, said: “Thanks to the wise guidance of His Highness The Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, Qatar supports sport all over the world.

“Goodwood is already one of the most iconic sporting festivals of the British

summer season and we are delighted to be the title sponsor over the five days.

“The sponsorship demonstrates Qatar’s further commitment to British racing and, with such huge prize-money on offer, we hope it will help to attract international runners from all over the world as well as continuing to see the best in Britain, France and Ireland.

“We look forward to working with Lord March and the team at Goodwood and taking the racing festival to a world class racing platform.”

The Goodwood Handicap Course of two miles and five furlongs starts

below the winning post and, running the reverse way up the course, turns left after about half a mile and returns to the straight run-in by the top bend.

The Goodwood Cup Course is the last two miles, the Bentinck Course the last one mile and six furlongs and the Gratwicke Course the last mile of the Goodwood Handicap Course.

The one mile and three furlongs distance is a relatively new one, introduced in 2001. It starts at the same point as the mile and a half course but enters the straight via the lower bend.

The Craven Course is one mile, one furlong and 192 yards long (described as a mile and a quarter) starting in almost the same spot as the Gratwicke Course but running in the reverse direction and returning to the run-in by the top bend. The one mile and one furlong course, though starting at almost the same point, follows the lower bend till joining the straight.

The Old Mile and seven-furlong courses start on the Goodwood Handicap Course and join the straight on the lower bend.

The five-furlong and six-furlong (Stewards’ Cup) courses are dead straight, the first furlong of the latter being uphill and then slightly undulating to the finish.

The sharp bends and downhill gradients of Goodwood usually suit the handy, well balanced, neat actioned sort and are against the big long-striding horse.

The course benefits from an artificial watering system.

TELEVISIONChannel 4 has been broadcasting live from Goodwood since 2007 and, since 2013, has a contract to supply all terrestrial television coverage of British racing.

Simon Holt, who had been Goodwood’s first-choice racecourse commentator for several years prior to 2007, calls them home from his Channel 4 microphone and continues to do so.

BBC TV first televised racing at Goodwood on July, 31 1956, when the corporation covered three races - the Craven Stakes, the Stewards’ Cup and the Bentinck Stakes. Race commentary came from Peter O’Sullevan, knighted in 1997, and paddock commentary from Clive Graham.

Racing UK (Sky Channel 432, Virgin Media 536 , UPC 411 and IPTV) was launched as a subscription channel on May 29, 2004 and now broadcasts from 34 of the 59 racecourses in the UK. Goodwood was integral to the formation of Racing UK and has been a driving force behind the success of the channel, which now numbers more than 50,000 subscribers.

The broadcaster, which returns all its profits to its 34 racecourse shareholders, will be showing all 35 races from the Qatar Goodwood Festival.

RADIO BBC Radio first negotiated with Goodwood as early as 1937 about the possibility of transmitting race commentaries, but the scheme was abandoned because of technical difficulties.

Negotiations were reopened in 1947 and in June of that year Mr Rathbone of the Goodwood Executive wrote to the BBC confirming that they had been granted full facilities at a cost of 15 guineas a day.

The first race to be transmitted was the Goodwood Stakes on July 30, 1947 on the Light Programme. The commentator was Frank More O’Ferrall.

BBC 5 Live will be among the radio stations covering the 2015 Qatar Goodwood Festival.

THE ARTEMIS MAGNOLIA CUP

ONE OF THE HIGHLIGHTS OF THE QATAR GOODWOOD FESTIVAL IS LADIES’ DAY, CELEBRATED ON THE THURSDAY OF RACEWEEK EACH YEAR AND, SINCE 2011, HAS COMMENCED WITH

THE CHARITY RACE, THE MAGNOLIA CUP, SPONSORED THIS YEAR BY ARTEMIS.

The Magnolia Cup’s key objective is to raise as much money as possible for

female-focused charities and, in doing so, help raise their profile. Through a mixture of sponsorship, tickets sales from the Regency Ball, private donations and betting initiatives, the race has raised over £800,000 in the last four years for some incredibly worthy causes. The aim this year is to break the £1-million target.

By far and away, the biggest and most important contribution comes from the women themselves. The brave amateur jockeys train tirelessly for months leading up to the race, undertaking everything from early morning riding sessions to intensive fitness programmes and jockey training classes.

Each rider must past the British Horseracing Authority assessment before being permitted to ride in the six-furlong race in front of the big Ladies’ Day crowd at Goodwood.

In addition to the jockeys, a collection of the most celebrated and prestigious female fashion designers dedicate their time and skills to creating bespoke silks for each of the riders. These designers not only produce the eye-catching silks, but actively support the campaign in the press and media before and after the event.

The 2015 designers are Vivienne Westwood, Kate Halfpenny, Bella Freud, Featherstone Frocks, Harare+Salt, Beulah, Roksanda Ilincic, Liberty of London, Charlotte Stockdale and Tabitha Webb.

In previous years, the welcome sums raised through this initiative have been donated to charities such as Great Ormond Street Hospital, Winston’s Wish, the Haven Breast Cancer Support, Spinal Research and Best Beginnings. The generous support received from sponsors and participants is essential in achieving targets and hopefully continuing this exciting event for many years to come.

The chosen charity this year is Amref Health Africa. Amref was founded in 1957 and is Africa’s leading health development organisation, bringing good quality health care closer to those who need it most. It aims to provide better health to over 14 million people - reaching in total over nine million adults and five million children in some of the most vulnerable and remote communities across Africa. Amref Health Africa is a truly African organisation, based

in Kenya. The vision is lasting health change in Africa, and for 2015 it is aiming to train up to 15,000 additional midwives,

Preferred Milliner

The Preferred Milliner for the Qatar Goodwood Festival 2015, Emily-

London, has created a special ‘Goodwood’ collection inspired by the racecourse’s picturesque and unrivalled setting in the countryside of the Sussex Downs.

The five-day Festival is often referred to as the official closing party of the summer season.

The Goodwood collection incorporates a range of racing classics synonymous with the event. Wide-brimmed picture hats, elegant pillboxes, beautiful headpieces and traditional Panamas are curated in a capsule collection celebrating the 200-year history of racing at Goodwood.

Drawing particular inspiration from Goodwood’s breathtaking landscape, the woman behind Emily-London, Emily Baxendale, has infused the collection with a soft and elegantly muted colour palette of fresh and breezy tones.

Romantic floral references pepper the collection and are carefully blended with subtle stripes and chequered detailing in a gentle nod to the tradition of racing silks.Stylised down-brims in crisp fresh pinks and creams sit alongside pastel pillboxes in blended blues and juniper tones. Beaded silk headpieces and voilettes are exquisitely trimmed with beautiful crowns of dried English flowers and sea lavender from the Sussex coast.

Paying homage to the long-standing relationship between Goodwood and the Panama hat, classic fedoras in hand-woven straw are re-interpreted and refreshed with charming floral coronets that sit alongside clean, classic stripes.

The enchanting and quintessentially English ambience of the Qatar Goodwood Festival is beautifully captured in this coveted collection of supremely wearable styles.

The ‘Goodwood’ Collection by Emily-London is available to purchase at the London showroom, online www.emily-london.com and the Goodwood Shop.

L’ORMARINS BEST DRESSED

Goodwood Racecourse and L’Ormarins, sponsor of the

Queen’s Plate, formed a race sponsorship association for the first time in 2014, linking Glorious Goodwood with one of South Africa’s most high-profile racedays.

The Grade Two Glorious Goodwood Peninsula Handicap was run at the prestigious L’Ormarins Queen’s Plate Day at Kenilworth Racecourse in January, 2014 and in reciprocation, the Group Three L’Ormarins Queen’s Plate took place on the Friday of Goodwood’s Festival, when a charity cricket match happened after racing between a Lord March XI and a Johann Rupert XI in front of Goodwood House.

Gaynor and Johann Rupert, who sponsor the Queen’s Plate through their winery, L’Ormarins, said: “The Qatar Goodwood Festival is one England’s most famous sporting and social events of the year so we think the association is great for L’Ormarins and the Queen’s Plate.”

Fashion at Goodwood is not just confined to Ladies’ Day on the Thursday, rather being a noted feature on all five days of the Festival.

For the second year running, there will be a Best Dressed Ladies competition on the Friday, July 31, to celebrate the continuing partnership with L’Ormarins.

Judges will be searching for an exquisitely dressed lady, looking elegant in the signature blue and white colours of

L’Ormarins, while also echoing the magnificence of the racing at Goodwood. A stunning hat is a must to complete this elegant look.

A prize of a lifetime is on offer for two people that includes return Premium Economy flights from London to Cape Town.

The L’Ormarins Queen’s Plate takes place on Saturday, January 9, 2016, so the suggested dates would be Monday, January 4 to Sunday, January 10.

The prize also features airport transfers and transfers to all LQP-arranged elements of the package, six nights’ accommodation at a top hotel in Cape Town, a tour of L’Ormarins Estate & Drakenstein Stud Farm, a wine tasting with Anthonij Rupert Wyne and lunch at the farm, lunch at the Grand Beach Café, invitations to any official LQP events and two tickets to the L’Ormarins Luncheon at the L’Ormarins Queen’s Plate.

FASHION ON SHOW AT QATAR

GOODWOOD FESTIVAL

As the summer progresses, the social

calendar builds towards what is widely

acknowledged as the pinnacle of the season: the Qatar Goodwood

Festival, affectionately known as Glorious

Goodwood (Tuesday, July 28 to Saturday,

August 1, 2015).

It is a quintessentially English event, with elegance and style, which attracts an international attendance.

Over 100,000 people flock to Goodwood Racecourse during the five days to enjoy this chic, relaxed and glamorous Festival that celebrates the very best from the world of fashion and horseracing.For many, world class sport is the backdrop to a fabulous day out, and the Qatar Goodwood Festival is quite unique.

Widely regarded as one of the most stylish race meetings in Britain, unusually, this does not come about through the enforcement of stringent dress codes.

It is a more relaxed affair; top hats are replaced with Panamas, ladies wear pretty florals and hats, while guests in all enclosures sip G&Ts to the lilt of live music.

THE RACECOURSE

Part of the unique appeal of Goodwood Racecourse is its incredible setting. High in the Sussex Downs and just over an hour from London, Goodwood is renowned as being one

of the most beautiful racecourses in the United Kingdom, if not the world.

It forms a key part of the magnificent 12,000-acre Goodwood Estate; situated just outside Chichester with stunning views out to sea and as far as the Isle of Wight on a clear day. The estate boasts a top hotel, luxury spa and health club, championship golf course, one of Europe’s largest lowland organic beef farms, a motor circuit and aerodrome.

Famed for embracing innovation as strongly as it protects tradition, it stages two of the largest and most popular motor sport events in the world, the Festival of Speed (June 25-28, 2015) and the Goodwood Revival (September 11-13, 2015).

The Racecourse hosts around 130 Flat races at 19 racedays including two highly-regarded Group One races, the Qatar Sussex Stakes and Qatar Nassau Stakes, both run during the Qatar Goodwood Festival, six Group Twos and eight Group Threes annually.

Total prize money for 2015 is over £6 million, thanks to the huge increase generated by Qatar’s sponsorship.

The standard of horseracing during Glorious Goodwood is always exceptionally high, and the Qatar Sussex Stakes is the only race that wonder horse Frankel competed in (and naturally won) twice (2011 & 2012). Keeping standards high, in 2015 prize money over the five days of Glorious Goodwood tops £4.5 million.

GOODWOOD WINNER GAINS AUTOMATIC ENTRY TO BREEDERS’ CUP MILE

The winner of this year’s £1-million Qatar Sussex Stakes on Wednesday, July 29, the second day of the inaugural five-day Qatar Goodwood Festival, receives automatic entry to

the Grade One Breeders’ Cup Mile at Keeneland. Kentucky, USA on October 31.

The Group One Qatar Sussex Stakes will be the only “win and you’re in” race in England and Ireland for the US$2,000,000 Breeders’ Cup Mile.

With prize money for the Qatar Goodwood Festival totalling more than £4.5 million following the new 10-year partnership between Goodwood Racecourse and Qatar, the Qatar Sussex Stakes has a much-increased prize fund of £1 million, cementing its position as one of the most valuable mile races in the world.

Adam Waterworth, Sports Managing Director, Goodwood Estate, said: “It is fantastic to be able to associate the Qatar Goodwood Festival and the Breeders’ Cup through linking two of the most valuable mile races.

“The Qatar Sussex Stakes will hopefully attract an even higher calibre of runner through increased prize money with the challenge race aspect adding another international dynamic to the race.”

Josh Christian, Director of Racing, Breeders’ Cup, declared: “Breeders’ Cup is thrilled to be establishing a partnership with

Goodwood Racecourse and is especially excited that this year’s winner of the Qatar Sussex Stakes receiving an automatic berth into the Breeders’ Cup Mile at Keeneland through the international Breeders’ Cup Challenge series.

“Lord March invited me to Goodwood last year to see everything first hand and I do not think I have stopped talking about how impressive it all was. We have been honoured enough to see such Sussex Stakes winners as Giant’s Causeway, Rock Of Gibraltar, Henrythenavigator and Toronado come and run in the Breeders’ Cup and we very much look forward to seeing a few more come and take home big chunks of the US$26 million in purses and awards.”

GOODWOOD TO INAUGURATE DOHA TRIPLE CROWN

A major new race series for Purebred Arabians was announced by the Qatar International Equestrian Committee in Qatar in March, the Doha Triple Crown.

The Doha Triple Crown will feature a bonus of US$1-million for the winner of three of the world’s most prestigious Arabian races, beginning with the inaugural running of the £400,000 Group One Qatar International Stakes for four-year-olds and upwards Purebred Arabians over a mile on Saturday, August 1, the concluding day of the Qatar Goodwood Festival.

Speaking at a press conference ahead of the finale of the H.H The Emir 24th International Equestrian Sword Festival, Hamad Bin Abdulrahman Al Attiyah, Vice Chairman of the Qatar Racing & Equestrian Club Board of Directors, said: “The Doha Triple Crown represents a major development in the global promotion of Arabian Racing linking three major festivals and strengthening our alliance with European racing.

“We are delighted that our new partnership with Goodwood provides us with the opportunity to launch the series at one of the world’s most beautiful racecourses and one of international racing’s most highly regarded race meetings.”

Qatar Equestrian Federation and Goodwood Racecourse announced in December British racing’s most valuable commercial partnership.

Goodwood Racecourse Chairman, Lord March, said: “Goodwood has a long held reputation for combining heritage and innovation and we are looking forward to welcoming some of the world’s highest-rated Arabians to race on the Sussex Downs.

“We are very excited about our partnership with Qatar Equestrian Federation and are delighted to be staging Britain’s most valuable race of its kind.”

Longchamp provides the second leg of the Doha Triple Crown where the 1-million euros Qatar Arabian World Cup has quickly become an established feature of Qatar Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe Weekend in early October, with the H.H The Emir’s Sword, Qatar’s most valuable race worth QR3 million, providing the finale in February, 2016.

Genny Haynes, Director of the Arabian Racing Organisation, the sole Arabian Racing Authority in the UK, said: “It is extremely

exciting to have a race of this stature forming part of the UK Arabian Racing Calendar.

“Qatar are major supporters of Arabian racing in the UK and have been particularly supportive of initiatives to encourage smaller owners and breeders and we look forward to playing our part in the promotion of this major new race series.”

Trainer Julian Smart, who has won the H.H The Emir’s Sword three times in the past five years and is a three-time winner of the Qatar Arabian World Cup, said, “It will take a very special horse to win the Doha Triple Crown, but the challenge is there now.

“It’s very exciting to have another race of this value and importance in Europe and the positioning of the Qatar International Stakes should ensure that it is very well supported.”

Bryn said: “I love horses and look forward to being a part of this fantastic Goodwood event. Cooking some seasonal delights alongside a truly brilliant team of chefs, I will have as much fun as the guests.”

Hailing from Denbigh in North Wales, Bryn learnt to appreciate food and its origins from an early age. He would go shooting and fishing with his father and uncle and learned his trade working in a local bakery. As a boy, Bryn knew that cooking was integral to his future.

He has been part of the success story of some of the most prestigious kitchens in London. In 1997 he began work under Marco Pierre White at the Criterion, before joining Michel Roux’s team at Le Gavroche for three years. Bryn was senior sous chef at the Orrery for four years and then opened Galvin at Windows with Chris Galvin, before opening Odette’s for Vince Power in 2006.

RICHARD HUGHESHIS FINAL QATAR GOODWOOD FESTIVAL

The 42-year-old has been the jockey to follow at the five-day meeting,

partnering 54 winners in total and a remarkable 30 since 2010.

He lifted the Racing UK Top Jockey Award for the first time that year with a modern-day record of nine winners and nearly matched the feat when recording eight victories in 2013.

Hughes was also the Racing UK Top Jockey at the Festival in 2011 (five wins) and 2012 (four wins) but just missed out last year when enjoying another four successes.

Hughes was born on January 11, 1973 and is the son of the late Dessie Hughes, who enjoyed many top-level successes in the National Hunt sphere as both a jockey and trainer.

Richard served his apprenticeship with his father and rode his first winner at Fairyhouse in April, 1988. He moved to Britain in 1994 and partnered his first Goodwood winner later that year on board the John Dunlop-trained Luhuk in the Listed Foundation Stakes.

Hughes was owner Khalid Abdullah’s retained rider from 2001 to 2007, but it was his subsequent association with trainer Richard Hannon snr that played a crucial part in his success at Goodwood.

The jockey and trainer combined to land Goodwood’s flagship race, the Qatar Sussex Stakes, with Canford Cliffs and Toronado in 2010 and 2013 respectively. Canford Cliffs completed a Group One hat-trick following

wins in the Irish 2,000 Guineas and St James’s Palace Stakes, while Toronado got the better of arch rival Dawn Approach in a thrilling finish. Hughes marks them out as two of the best horses he has ever ridden.

The partnership also dominated the feature two-year-old contests at Goodwood. They annexed the Group Two Richmond Stakes five times in seven years and gained four consecutive victories in the Group Two Vintage Stakes between 2010 and 2013.

Hughes boasts an outstanding record in Goodwood’s top handicap and one of the most competitive races of the season, the Qatar Stewards’ Cup. He struck on 40/1 outsider Shikari’s Son in 1995 before recording back-to-back victories on Harmonic Way (1999) and Tayseer (2000). Intrinsic bridged a 14-year gap when storming to an impressive victory in 2014.

The rider’s Goodwood haul also features a scintillating success on the The Fugue in the 2012 Nassau Stakes and a brace of wins in both the Celebration Mile and Lennox Stakes.

Hughes, married to Lizzie, daughter of Richard Hannon snr and sister of Richard Hannon jnr, collected the jockeys’ championship for the first time in 2012 and has retained the title since. He has won two British Classics and notched up two more successes at Royal Ascot this year, taking his tally to 31.

He will train at Ken Cunningham-Brown’s yard in Hampshire.

Champion jockey Richard Hughes is set to ride at his final Qatar Goodwood Festival after announcing that he plans to retire by the end of

this season and embark on a training career.

During the course of his 43-year career, the Hampshire-based trainer saddled

more winners at the West Sussex course than any other trainer in history - 257.

His total of 73 winners at Glorious Goodwood is matched only by the late Sir Henry Cecil.

In 2010, he smashed the record for the most wins during Glorious Goodwood, with nine successes over the five days, and repeated the remarkable feat in his final year as a trainer, 2013.

He sent out a record 22 winners during 2010 at Goodwood.

Hannon was born in Lewes, East Sussex, on May 30, 1945 and began training in 1970, taking over the licence on the retirement

of his father Henry (Harry). He remained a trainer until the end of 2013, when he handed over the reins to his son and assistant Richard Hannon jnr. Hannon snr now acts as assistant to his son.

Hannon snr made rapid progress as a trainer. A first Pattern race victory came courtesy of Crespinall in the 1972 Princess Elizabeth Stakes at Epsom and the same filly went on to win the Nassau Stakes at Glorious Goodwood later that season - the trainer’s first Goodwood triumph.

He took Goodwood’s top race - the Group One Qatar Sussex Stakes - three times with Reel Buddy (2003), Canford Cliffs (2010) and Toronado (2013).

Rated by the trainer as his best-ever horse, Canford Cliffs, captured the Irish 2,000

Guineas, St James’s Palace Stakes and Sussex Stakes in 2010 as well as the 2011 Lockinge Stakes at Newbury and the Queen Anne Stakes at Royal Ascot, in which he defeated Goldikova. Canford Cliffs’ Sussex Stakes victory saw him score cheekily by a neck under a masterful Richard Hughes ride.

There was another very satisfying Sussex Stakes victory in 2013 with Toronado, who also benefited from an exquisite ride by Richard Hughes. Toronado gained revenge over Dawn Approach, victorious in the QIPCO 2,000 Guineas and St James’s Palace Stakes, by half a length.

Hannon gained a reputation for his expertise with sprinters and two-year-olds, with his haul in Goodwood’s juvenile contests being outstanding. He took the Richmond Stakes and the Vintage Stakes five times each, as

well as landing the Molecomb Stakes on four occasions.

He was unstoppable for four consecutive years in the six-furlong Richmond Stakes, winning with Prolific (2008), Dick Turpin (2009), Libranno (2010) and Harbour Watch (2011). Dick Turpin went on to capture two Group One contests.

Similarly, in the Vintage Stages, there were four straight victories, thanks to King Torus (2010), Chandlery (2011), Olympic Glory (2012) and Toormore (2013). Olympic Glory progressed to win three Group One races while Toormore also gained Group One glory subsequently. Hannon’s other Vintage winner, Don’t Forget Me (1986), collected two Classics the following year, the 2,000 Guineas at Newmarket and the Irish 2,000 Guineas at the Curragh.

The trainer also enjoyed significant Glorious Goodwood handicap success, headed by two victories in the Stewards’ Cup (Notley 1991 & Knight Of Mercy 1990).

Hannon was champion trainer of Britain in 1992, 2010, 2011 and 2013 and received the Cartier & Daily Telegraph Award of Merit in 2010. He sent out three winners of the QIPCO 2,000 Guineas and enjoyed 33 Royal Ascot winners.

He is married to Jo and they have six children - the triplets Richard, Henry and Lizzie (who is married to Richard Hughes) - Fanny (who is married to trainer Sylvester Kirk), Claire and Julie.

Richard Hannon jnr has continued the tradition of his father, enjoying his first Goodwood winner with Parsley on May 23, 2014.

He was top trainer at Goodwood in 2014 with 11 victories through the season, the highlights of which were Ivawood’s victory in the Group Two Richmond Stakes and the success of Pether’s Moon in the Group Three Glorious Stakes. Pether’s Moon progressed to win the Group One Coronation Cup at Epsom this season.

GOODWOOD & SIR HENRY CECIL

Sir Henry Cecil died on June 11, 2013, aged 70, following a long battle with cancer.

The 10-time British champion Flat trainer was in his element at Goodwood, sending out 170 winners, of which a joint-record of 73 came at Glorious Goodwood.

Cecil, who started training in 1969, was born in Aberdeen on January 11, 1943, 10 minutes before his twin brother David.

He achieved a record of success that ranks him among the pantheon of training legends. His horses were victorious in 25 British Classics and still holds the record of being the most successful trainer ever at Royal Ascot with 75 victories.

He enjoyed his first Goodwood victory on August 30, 1969, with Rohays in the Wills Embassy Maiden.

His level of success in Goodwood’s two Group One races is unprecedented - landing the Qatar Sussex Stakes seven times and the Qatar Nassau Stakes eight times.

In the Sussex Stakes, Cecil was successful with Bolkonski (1975), Wollow (1976), Kris (1979), Distant View (1994), Ali-Royal (1997) and the greatest of all, Frankel (2011 & 2012).

Frankel, who retired unbeaten in 14 starts (10 at Group One level), made history by becoming the first horse to win the Sussex Stakes twice and, after his final victory at Ascot in the QIPCO Champion Stakes in October, 2012, was described by Cecil as: “The best I’ve ever had, the best I’ve ever seen, I’d be very surprised if there has ever been better”.

This view was vindicated when the colt was awarded a rating of 140 in the World Thoroughbred Rankings - the highest ever.

Midday was another record-breaker for Cecil at Goodwood, becoming the first horse to win the Group One Nassau Stakes three times (2009, 2010 and 2011). The trainer’s other Nassau Stakes wins came through Roussalka (1975 & 1976),

Connaught Bridge (1979), Nom De Plume (1987) and Lyphard’s Delta (1993).

A plethora of success at Glorious Goodwood also included four Goodwood Cups (Parthenon 1970, Le Moss 1979 & 1980 and Ardross 1981), two Gordon Stakes (John French 1983 & Noble Mission 2012), two Lennox Stakes (Lord Shanakill 2010 & Chachamaidee 2012) and a record six Vintage Stakes (Marathon Gold 1979, Trojan Fen 1983, Faustus 1985, High Estate 1988, Be My Chief 1989 and Eltish 1994).

Explaining his love of Goodwood, Cecil once remarked: “Glorious Goodwood is one of my favourite meetings and I used to always stay down and make use of the mornings with a few shopping expeditions on the south coast. I have been very lucky with the likes of Ardross, Le Moss, Wollow, Bolkonski and Kris, and it is always great fun.”

Cecil, who married Jane McKeown in 2008, fought cancer from 2006.

His outstanding achievements were acknowledged with a knighthood in the 2011 Queen’s Birthday Honours List for services to racing.

Lady Cecil took over the licence at Warren Place following Sir Henry’s death and will continue to train from the historic Newmarket yard up until the end of the 2015 season.

She saddled her first winner at Goodwood when Wild Coco landed the Group Three Lillie Langtry Fillies’ Stakes on August 1, 2013 and gained a second Glorious Goodwood success with Retirement Plan the following day.

2014 GOODWOOD

REVIEWIt was very much a case of a seamless handover

at Goodwood in 2014, with Richard Hannon jnr gaining top trainer honours with 11 winners at the

West Sussex racecourse during his first season.

Page 18: GOODWOOD RACECOURSE - files.ctctcdn.comfiles.ctctcdn.com/205db977201/5d119c88-f76a-4e98-ab45-0df279618f54.pdf · Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, Qatar supports sport all over

His father, Richard Hannon snr, was leading trainer at Goodwood on no

less than 10 occasions, more than any other handler, including in his final season as a trainer in 2013.

Richard Hughes, longstanding stable jockey to the Hannon stable, was top jockey again with 15 victories, seven clear of nearest rival James Doyle.

However, the new Hannon/Hughes combination did not dominate Glorious Goodwood, with the top trainer and jockey honours at the five-day festival going to Yorkshire-based Scotsman Mark Johnston and William Buick respectively. Yet Hannon still had three successes and Hughes partnered four winners.

Kingman was the undoubted equine star on show at Goodwood during the year. Trained by John Gosden in Newmarket for owner Khalid Abdullah, the three-year-old landed the feature Group One Sussex Stakes with an impressive turn of foot by a length from the 2013 winner Toronado.

His Goodwood victory under Doyle was the penultimate appearance of a tremendous career that saw the son of Invincible Spirit successful on seven of his eight starts, of which four came at Group One level.

In the end-of-the-year 2014 Longines World’s Best Racehorse Rankings, Kingman achieved a rating of 127, making him the third best horse to have raced globally and jointly the best in Europe over the 12

months. He was also crowned Horse of the Year at the 2014 Cartier Racing Awards.

It would prove to be the first leg of a Group One double at the festival for Gosden, as he also landed the Nassau Stakes on the final day with Sultanina – a remarkable third consecutive victory for the trainer in the prestigious contest for fillies and mares, following on from The Fugue (2012) and Winsili (2013).

There is no better rider in the big-field handicaps at Glorious Goodwood than Hughes and he collected his fourth Stewards’ Cup aboard the Robert Cowell-trained Intrinsic.

Other Glorious Goodwood highlights included a fourth Goodwood Cup for Godolphin with Cavalryman, while there were several excellent two-year-old performances, with Ivawood taking the six-furlong Richmond Stakes for Hannon and the Adian O’Brien-trained Highland Reel successful in the Group Two Vintage Stakes over seven furlongs. Pether’s Moon, also trained by Hannon, was successful in the Group Three Glorious Stakes and progressed to win this season’s Group One Coronation Cup at Epsom.

Johnston was also on the mark at Goodwood’s August Bank Holiday Weekend, taking the feature Group Two Celebration Mile with Bow Creek, while at the same three-day meeting the Group Three Select Stakes fell to Ansgar, trained in Ireland by Sabrina Harty, who went on to win the Group Two Park Stakes at Doncaster’s St Leger Festival.

In December, 2014, at London’s iconic Shard, Goodwood Racecourse was delighted to announce a new 10-year partnership with Qatar, the single biggest sponsorship deal ever done for the benefit of British racing.

Commencing in 2015, this makes the Qatar Goodwood Festival one of the most significant and valuable meetings in the world. The partnership results in over £2 million extra being invested into prize money for eight key races during this year’s Qatar Goodwood Festival as well as a commitment to increase this year-on-year. Total prize money on offer for the week now totals over £4.5 million.

Racing was introduced to Goodwood by the third Duke of Richmond out

of a sense of obligation to the officers of the Sussex militia, of which he was colonel, rather than any devotion to the turf.

For many years, the officers had held their annual races in nearby Petworth Park, courtesy of the Earl of Egremont, but when that capricious nobleman did not renew the invitation in 1801, the Duke of Richmond came to the rescue by laying out a course on that part of the Goodwood Estate known as the Harroway.

So pleased was the Duke with the popularity of that first two-day meeting that he organised a three-day one under Jockey Club Rules the following year. On the first day, he won with a horse called Cedar, but on the third day Cedar was beaten by Trumpator, owned by the Prince of Wales, later King George IV.

To accommodate his more distinguished guests, the Duke had a small wooden stand erected. The first Duke of Richmond, who purchased the Goodwood Estate in 1697, was an illegitimate son of Charles II and Louise de Keroualle, Duchess of Portsmouth.

His grandson, the founder of the Goodwood meeting, was a man of taste and considerable talent. He was one of the earliest patrons of the equine artist George Stubbs, who stayed at Goodwood for nine months in 1759, and, as Master-General of the Ordnance, he commissioned the first ordnance survey maps, still in use today.

Following the death of the third Duke in 1806, the title and estate were inherited by his nephew, an eminent soldier. A civilian by the time of Waterloo, he would have missed the battle had he obeyed the instructions of his friend the Duke of Wellington, who told him to go back to Brussels, but the fourth Duke hid in a bush and cheered the troops on!

Lack of funds (due to the third Duke’s prolific spending) prevented the fourth Duke from being at home for long periods. It was, however, during his time that the Goodwood Cup was first run in 1812 over a three-mile course.

Two years later, at the suggestion of his son, the Earl of March, the date of the meeting was changed from May to its now long traditional slot in late July. The move to July proved an immediate success and greatly enhanced the social status of the meeting. This was because it coincided neatly with the end of the London season and retained

a relatively informal atmosphere, much appreciated by the aristocracy before they retired to their country estates for the remainder of the summer.

While the importance of the meeting increased, the Goodwood Cup did not immediately carry the prestige that it would in the middle of the century and was only staged spasmodically. It was not run in 1815 or between 1817 and 1824, while there was a walkover in 1826. No horse of any consequence won it until Priam, successful in the Derby of the previous year, in 1831, six years after the distance raced over was reduced to two miles and five furlongs.

The fourth Duke died in 1819 and was succeeded by his son, another notable soldier. Having been severely wounded by a musket ball at Othez in the Peninsular War in 1814, the fifth Duke returned to Goodwood to devote himself to hunting. When a heavy fall aggravated his old injuries so badly that he was obliged to give up following hounds, the Duke, who served a term as President of the MCC, devoted much of his time to racing. He did a great deal to improve the racecourse, including the building of a new grandstand for 3,000 people in 1830.

HISTORYOF GOODWOOD RACECOURSE

Also in that year, the Stables, completed to the designs of Sir William Chambers for the third Duke of Richmond in 1761, were filled with horses belonging to the fifth Duke of Richmond and Lord George Bentinck. A heavy gambler, who never felt himself constrained by the strict code of honour he sought to impose upon others, Lord George was overbearing far beyond the point of arrogance and a born organiser. The outstanding member of the Jockey Club of that era, he was enabled, by his friendship with the Duke of Richmond, to implement many reforms at Goodwood that would later become common practice on other courses.

As well as railing off a number of enclosures, including one for cigar smokers, he reformed the method of starting by equipping the starter with a flag instead of simply having the official shout ‘go’. He also fined the Clerk of the Course if races started late and insisted that every horse had a number on the racecard corresponding to that displayed on the board indicating the runners.

Furthermore, he gave orders that the runners should parade in front of the stands. Bentinck also set aside an area in which they were to be saddled and another in which they were to be unsaddled. In consequence, the Goodwood meeting was conducted far more efficiently than had ever been the case on any other course.

At the time when Lord George was bringing in these improvements, many of the most popular races of the Qatar Goodwood Festival were becoming entrenched in the programme.

The Molecomb Stakes was founded in 1833, while the six-furlong Stewards’ Cup was first run in 1840 when Epirus, trained by John Scott at Malton in Yorkshire, beat 21 rivals. The latter race is now the handicap highlight on the final day of Glorious Goodwood.

The Nassau Stakes also came into existence in 1840 and the Sussex Stakes was introduced in 1841 to coincide with the construction of a weighing room at the racecourse. The Sussex Stakes started out as a race for two-year-olds but in 1878 the conditions changed it into a contest for three-year-olds over a mile and from that point never looked back.

Goodwood of course is more than just a racecourse. It is a country estate quite different from any other. Its unique ambience and air of understated glamour have drawn people to it throughout three centuries of ownership by the Dukes of Richmond. It is made up of many varied aspects.

These include Goodwood House, which was refurbished between 1966 and 1971 and again between 1994 and 1998 and is now restored to its former Regency glory; a motor circuit which has once again resounded to the roar of historic racing cars since 1998; a hotel and country club, aerodrome, golf club, organic farm and more.

Each of the sporting activities on the Goodwood Estate reflects the particular interest of one of the Dukes of Richmond. Goodwood House hosts parties, both private and corporate, as well as weddings for couples who want to celebrate their marriage in magnificent surroundings. The racecourse boasts private boxes, restaurants and bars to suit all tastes. Racegoers gather to watch world-class jockeys battle it out on this most beautiful of racecourses set high on the Sussex Downs.

The ninth Duke of Richmond did not share his forbears’ great passion for the turf, but loved racing - in the form of motor cars. Adjacent to the Estate was the RAF Airfield at Tangmere and it eventually dawned on him that its annexe, Westhampnett Airfield, part of the Goodwood Estate, would make a suitable motor circuit.

The first meeting took place in 1948 and, until its closure in 1966, the Goodwood Motor Circuit was Britain’s leading racing venue. Reopened in 1998, the circuit stages an historic race meeting, the Goodwood Revival, each September, which lovingly recreates the glamour and romance of motor racing in the 1950s and 1960s. The 2015 Goodwood Revival takes place on September 11, 12 & 13.

The Festival of Speed, staged on June 25, 26, 27 & 28, is the other major motor sport event at Goodwood. It is the world’s biggest and most diverse celebration of the history of motor sport and car culture. The Festival of Speed is the only occasion to see the greatest competition cars and star driversfrom all eras in action: everything from 19th century steam carriages to current

Formula One; fabulous racing motorcycles; classic rally cars to 3,000bhp dragsters; plus motor sport legends like Moss, Surtees, Fittipaldi and Andretti rubbing shoulders with today’s hottest properties such as Lewis Hamilton, Jenson Button, Fernando Alonso and Petter Solberg.

The annual Festival of Speed has established itself as the most exclusive garden party fixture of the season where motor racing fans mingle with spectacular cars and their drivers in the parkland surrounding Goodwood House.

The Flying School continues to attract people from all walks of life keen to gain the freedom of their private pilot’s licence or simply to soar above the stunning Sussex countryside.

Just across the park from Goodwood House, the Goodwood Hotel offers everything you might expect from a world-renowned hotel.

The old Goodwood Golf Course, stretching up the Downs to the Racecourse, was superbly renovated in 2004 and is one of the two 18-hole courses on the Estate. Golf At Goodwood, a brand new vision for the sport, was launched in 2006 and is about paying for the golf that people want to play, when they want to play it. Members have access to the Downs Course, already rated in Golf World’s Top 100 courses in Great Britain and Ireland, and the Park Course.

Instead of paying a high joining fee and annual subscription, new members pay a joining fee (first year only), annual subscription and the cost of Goodwood Golf Credits. The more golf played the less the rounds cost. All of the Estate’s activities can be viewed at www.goodwood.co.uk

The Kennels is the central clubhouse for all of the Estate’s sporting and social memberships.

Goodwood’s popularity as a venue for horseracing began to grow rapidly, particularly after the Second World War during which there had been no racing on the course. In 1953, 55,000 spectators gathered for the Tuesday of Glorious Goodwood (still at that time the only racing staged at Goodwood - an August meeting had been held from 1946 to 1948, but was then dropped from the programme), with

no less than 21,000 on the slopes of Trundle Hill. That figure has not been surpassed since, but the demand for racing at this most scenic of courses led to the introduction of three additional fixtures in 1965, two in August and one in September.

The May meeting was started in 1968, while in 1970 Glorious Goodwood was extended to five days with the addition of the Saturday. In June, 1985, an evening meeting was staged for the first time.

The racecourse has undergone some important changes in recent times. Until 1967, horses pulled up running up Trundle Hill, during which time the parade ring was positioned behind what is now the Charlton Stand. In 1976, however, the parade ring was moved to the south side of the racecourse behind the March Stand. At the same time, the weighing room, which had previously been in the old Charlton building, was relocated to the north side of the parade ring. This involved moving the old road south of the racecourse.

The old Stand was demolished after the Festival meeting of 1979 and replaced by the present March Stand, designed by the architect Sir Philip Dowson, which won the annual Concrete Society Award. It was opened on July 29, 1980, by Her Majesty the Queen who unveiled a bronze horse created by the famous sculptress, Dame Elizabeth Frink.

The next phase of redevelopment occurred in 1989 with the new Charlton Stand, followed in 1990 by the opening of the Sussex Stand at the Festival meeting by Peter (now Sir Peter) O’Sullevan. The Sussex Stand won a commendation from the Royal Fine Arts Commission.

To coincide with this development and, with effect from the start of the 1990 season, the winning post was moved approximately 31 yards in the direction of the six-furlong start. As a result, starts and race distances had to be modified.

Thus the Goodwood Cup, traditionally run over two miles and five furlongs, was reduced to two and a half miles. Following the Jockey Club’s review of staying races, the distance of the Goodwood Cup was further reduced to two miles in 1991.

In 1989, a new race distance of one mile and one furlong was successfully introduced,

starting at the same point as the one mile and two furlong start. This innovative addition to the race programme had been prompted by the most unfortunate of circumstances when, in 1988, runners in a 10-furlong race were directed, in error, onto the lower bend rather than the upper bend before re-entering the straight. That race, the Festival Stakes won by Mtoto, was declared void.

Prize money was steadily increased and more racing introduced, including additional evening meetings. On May 27, 1988, Goodwood inaugurated its first enterprise evening fixture. This was the first time since racing became reliant on Horserace Betting Levy Board funding that a meeting was held without Levy Board assistance. Goodwood’s evening fixtures remain enormously popular.

In 1995, the Bentinck Conservatory was built. With its panoramic views of the Isle of Wight, it seats 180 people and acts as a dining offshoot of the Bentinck Bar. The same year saw the staging of Goodwood’s first Sunday fixture, following the legalisation of Sunday betting, on August 27 - the Sunday of the August Bank Holiday. This brought the total number of racedays at Goodwood to a then record 19. A further new fixture in June meant 20 days in 1997, while Goodwood staged the inaugural running of the Shergar Cup, now held at Ascot, in May, 1999.

The exciting new paddock development, designed by Sir Michael Hopkins, opened in 2001. It comprises a new Members’ entrance, Double Trigger Restaurant, three elliptical pavilions housing bars and restaurants and a 5,000 viewing capacity amphitheatre style parade ring.

The racecourse celebrated its 200th anniversary in 2002 and the occasion was marked by the publication of the Glorious Goodwood book and video.

At the end of 2014, Goodwood Racecourse announced the biggest sponsorship deal ever in British racing involving a 10-year deal with Qatar.

Commencing in 2015, the partnership results in over £2 million extra being invested into prize money for eight key races during the Qatar Goodwood Festival as well as a commitment to increase this year-on-year. Total prize money on offer for the week now totals £4.5 million, with

Qatar once again demonstrating their passion and support for British racing. The Group One Qatar Sussex Stakes, scheduled for Wednesday, July 29, has a total prize fund of £1 million cementing its position as one of the most valuable mile races in the world. The Group One Qatar Nassau Stakes, the feature race on the Saturday of the Qatar Goodwood Festival is now worth £600,000, making it the most significant mid-summer race for fillies. Each Group Two feature race, the Qatar Lennox Stakes (Tuesday), the Qatar Goodwood Cup (Thursday) and the Qatar King George Stakes (Friday) are now worth £300,000, recognising their recent records for attracting some of the best horses at their respective distances.

Other races to benefit from increased prize money are the two Group Two races for two-year-olds, the Qatar Vintage Stakes and the Qatar Richmond Stakes, each of which will run for £200,000, supporting their status as the proving grounds for future champions. The Qatar Stewards’ Cup is the headline handicap of the week with prize money now totalling £250,000 and, as part of this uplift, the consolation race rises to £75,000. This is a perfect example of how strongly Goodwood and Qatar feel about supporting racing at all levels. There will two races at the Qatar Goodwood Festival for Arabian horses, with one being the first leg of the Arabian Triple Crown. The second leg will take place on Arc day in France and the final one at Doha in Qatar.

The present Duke of Richmond, who trained as a chartered accountant, and his son Lord March ensure that the Goodwood Estate as a whole is enjoyed and utilised to its fullest potential, but it is the racecourse that remains the jewel of their family’s inheritance.

King Charles II established the headquarters of English racing upon the stark magnificence of Newmarket Heath. By way of complete contrast, his descendants, the Dukes of Richmond, created the most beautiful racecourse in the country amidst the tranquillity of the vividly undulating Sussex countryside overlooking the sparkling waters of Chichester Harbour and the sea.

This race came into existence as the Chesterfield Cup in the same year as Goodwood’s most famous handicap, the Stewards’ Cup (1840), and was named after George Stanhope, the sixth Earl of Chesterfield. The Earl was a great racing man and reckless gambler who won two Goodwood Cups with Priam (bought after his 1830 Derby victory).

The Chesterfield Cup was run at Glorious Goodwood up to 1969 but, when in 1970 the Festival was extended to five days to include the Saturday, the PTS Laurels Handicap (also over nearly 10 furlongs but for older horses only) was introduced as a replacement and the Chesterfield Cup was moved to the August Meeting.

The race was switched back to the Saturday of Glorious Goodwood in 1979 and four years later was moved to the first day of the meeting.

Some classy horses have been successful in the Qatar Goodwood Festival Handicap. The 2003 winner, Imperial Dancer, won the Group One Premio Roma later that season and is now a stallion.

The 1998 second Yavana’s Pace made history four years later when, as a 10-year-old, he became the oldest winner of a Group One race in Europe with victory in the Credit Suisse Private Banking Pokal in Cologne, Germany.

The James Given-trained Indian Days swept to victory in 2010, prior to scoring in Group Three and Two races. Trainer Ian Balding, now retired, sent out six winners, including the only dual scorer Mailman in 1984 and 1986. Yorkshire-based Mark Johnston is closing in fast, gaining his fifth victory in 2014 with Sennockian Star, who had stable companions Salutation and Busatto in third and fourth.

Only 15 of the 69 favourites since 1946 have won. The age breakdown of winners in the same time frame has been 3yo - 7; 4yo - 39; 5yo - 16; 6yo - 5; 7yo - 2.

Three horses have defied 10st - Pelorus in 1989, Fluellen in1977 and Hail The Pirates in 1974 - while three-year-old Criterion shouldered 9st 10lb in 1982.

24 | QATAR GOODWOOD FESTIVAL | TUESDAY

The Qatar Vintage Stakes is one of the premier two-year-old races of the

season and has been won by numerous top-class performers including some who have gone on to Classic glory the following year.

The first Vintage Stakes winner to do so was Troy in 1978, who progressed to take the Derby at Epsom Downs the following June. Dr Devious became the second colt to achieve this notable double in 1991/1992, while Sir Percy also tasted glory in the Epsom Classic after clinching the 2005 renewal.

Don’t Forget Me (1986) and the Mark Johnston-trained Mister Baileys (1993) won the Goodwood race before adding the mile Classic, the QIPCO 2,000 Guineas at Newmarket, the following spring.

Johnston also trained the 2003 winner Lucky Story and the exceptional Shamardal. The latter was champion two-year-old in 2004 after winning the Vintage Stakes in an unbeaten campaign that culminated in the Group One Dewhurst Stakes at Newmarket. The following season, after being transferred to Godolphin, Shamardal was brilliant in three starts, winning the Poule d’Essai de Poulains, the Prix du Jockey Club and the St James’s Palace Stakes at Royal Ascot.

Rio De La Plata, who gave Frankie Dettori his third of four victories, was a good winner in 2007, also for Godolphin, and

went on to finish second in the French 2,000 Guineas the following year.

Subsequent Hong Kong Group One winner Xtension gave trainer Clive Cox his first success in 2009. He was narrowly beaten in the Group One Dewhurst Stakes at Newmarket later in the season.

Richard Hannon snr and Richard Hughes dominated the race, with four consecutive wins courtesy of King Torus (by six lengths in 2010), Chandlery (2011), Olympic Glory (2012) and Toormore (2013).

Olympic Glory subsequently won a pair of Group One contests, including the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes at Ascot in October, 2013, while Toormore was crowned Europe’s champion two-year-old following an unbeaten campaign.

Ireland’s champion trainer Aidan O’Brien registered a first success in the race last year and his 12th at Glorious Goodwood, with Highland Reel scoring easily in the hands of Joseph O’Brien, enjoying a first Festival victory. The son of Galileo became the 26th favourite in the 40 runnings to succeed.

The Qatar Vintage Stakes, which has moved to the opening day this year, is one of the races to receive at massive prize money injection, being worth £200,000 as against £80,000 last year.

26 | QATAR GOODWOOD FESTIVAL | TUESDAY

Goodwood acquired this Group race in 2000. It had been staged at Newcastle

as the Beeswing Stakes. The inaugural running at Goodwood, with Group Three status, was won by the John Gosden-trained Observatory, who went on to triumph in the Group One Queen Elizabeth II Stakes at Ascot the following month.

Nayyir captured the 2002 renewal and came back in fine form for a repeat victory in 2003, when the race was upgraded to Group Two.

Court Masterpiece succeeded in 2005 and progressed to Group One success at Longchamp, France, that October before returning to Glorious Goodwood the following year to win the Group One Qatar Sussex Stakes.

Iffraaj had been beaten a head in the Group One Darley July Cup over six furlongs at Newmarket prior to landing the 2006 renewal of the Qatar Lennox Stakes impressively by four lengths, the widest winning margin in the race.

Paco Boy proved himself a very worthy winner in 2008 as he went on to race most consistently at the highest level. The three-year-old displayed his burgeoning brilliance when slamming 1,000 Guineas winner Natagora by three lengths in the Group One Prix de la Foret at Longchamp later in the year.

Trained by Richard Hannon snr, Paco Boy gained two more Group One victories, taking the 2009 Queen Anne Stakes at Royal Ascot and adding the Lockinge Stakes at Newbury the following year.

Finjaan, winner of the 2008 Molecomb Stakes, showed his liking for Goodwood with success in 2009, giving trainer Marcus Tregoning his second victory in the race following on from Fath in 2001.

In 2012, there was a second success for Sir Henry Cecil when 5-4 favourite Chachamaidee scored comfortably by a length and a half. The five-year-old was the first mare to prevail and went on to success in the Group One Matron Stakes at Leopardstown in Ireland.

Garswood became the first Northern-trained winner in 2013, when the North Yorkshire-based Richard Fahey sent out the three-year-old to triumph under Ryan Moore. Es Que Love, trained by Clive Cox, got up by a neck to defeat odds-on favourite Toormore in 2014.

The age breakdown of winners has been 3yo - 7; 4yo - 3; 5yo - 5. Four of the 15 favourites have won the Qatar Lennox Stakes.

The Qatar Lennox Stakes is one of the races during the Qatar Goodwood Festival which has received a huge boost in prize money, with the total doubling to £300,000.

28 | QATAR GOODWOOD FESTIVAL | TUESDAY

Yorkshire-based trainer Mark Johnston won this 14-furlong handicap three

times in four years, with Scott’s View setting the ball rolling in 2002. The tough performer added a second Glorious Goodwood handicap four days later and was subsequently Group One placed in Hong Kong.

Darasim finished second to his stable companion in 2002 but gained compensation in the Coutts Glorious Stakes three days later and won this race in 2003. In 2004, the remarkable gelding progressed to capture

the Goodwood Cup. Johnston saddled Golden Quest to succeed in 2005 and the four-year-old ran second in the Goodwood Cup later that week.

Luca Cumani also has a fine record in the Summer Handicap. The Newmarket handler saddled subsequent Ebor hero Mephisto to win in 2004, while Soulacroix prevailed in 2006 and top-weight Sanbuch scored in 2008.

Motivado won easily in 2012 for Sir Mark Prescott and subsequently captured a Group Three in Australia.

Harris Tweed took the spoils in 2013 with a fine front-running performance and subsequently went down by a nose in the QIPCO British Champions Long Distance Cup on British Champions Day at Ascot.

The age breakdown of winners has been 3yo - 2; 4yo - 8; 5yo - 6; 6yo - 1; 7yo - 1. Six of the 18 favourites have won the Summer Handicap.

29 | QATAR GOODWOOD FESTIVAL | WEDNESDAY

One of Goodwood’s oldest races, this marathon handicap has always been

a popular feature of Glorious Goodwood.

The distance of the race was reduced by three furlongs to two miles in 1990 following the moving of the winning post and the introduction of new race distances but, the following year, it was extended to two and a half miles. The trip was further extended to two miles and five furlongs in 2001 so as to have a race over the traditional trip of the Goodwood Cup which had then been dropped down to two miles.

The runners start in front of the stands and go the reverse way down the course before looping around and returning the correct way. This race is now the longest run at Goodwood each year.

Hugs Dancer, trained by James Given, was victorious in 2001 and 2002. He became the

first horse since Golden Fire (1962 & 1963) to win this race two years in succession. The tough and versatile gelding also won the Ebor Handicap and the Chester Cup before transferring to Australia where he gained a Group Two contest.

Baddam landed a famous double at Royal Ascot in 2006, winning the Ascot Handicap and Queen Alexandra Stakes, and the popular stayer swept to another marathon triumph in the 2008 renewal of this contest.

Jump trainers dominated the finish in 2010, with the Nicky Henderson-trained Ghimaar defeating Ascot Handicap winner and subsequent Cheltenham Festival hero Junior, saddled by David Pipe, by a length and a half. It was Henderson’s second success in the race, following on from Afrad in 2005.

Dual-purpose trainer Micky Hammond, based in Yorkshire, saddled his first Goodwood winner when Hollins triumphed at 20-1 in 2011.

Another Yorkshire-based handler, Mark Johnston, collected a fourth Goodwood Handicap in 2013 with Broxbourne, adding to the victories of Hurricane Higgins (2012), Knavesmire Omen (2003) and Cloud Inspector (1997).

Johnston’s Maid In Rio was sent off the 11/8 favourite in 2014, but it was 33/1 outsider Teak who stayed on best of all to score for trainer Ian Williams and jockey Silvestre de Sousa.

The age breakdown of winners (since 1946) has been 3yo - 4; 4yo - 34; 5yo - 17; 6yo - 5; 7yo - 7; 8yo - 2. Only 16 of the 69 favourites since 1946 have won the Goodwood Handicap.

31 | QATAR GOODWOOD FESTIVAL | WEDNESDAY

The Neptune Investment Management Gordon Stakes is an excellent St

Leger trial and a race with a rich heritage. Goodwood House is the traditional English seat of the Duke of Richmond and Gordon, with Gordon Castle his Scottish retreat.

This previously extinct Dukedom was revived by Queen Victoria in 1876 in favour of the Richmond family, and the race, instigated in 1902, was named accordingly. Open to three-year olds and upwards for the first running in 1902, it has been restricted to three-year-olds from 1903 onwards.

In recent times, Commanche Run (1984), Minster Son (1988), Nedawi (1998), Millenary (2000), Sixties Icon (2006) and the 2008 victor Conduit, have all added the final Classic, the St Leger at Doncaster, to an earlier Gordon Stakes victory.

Conduit held Donegal in a thrilling finish to the 2008 Goodwood race and, after his St Leger triumph, the colt swept to victory in

the Breeders’ Cup Turf in America as well as landing the King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes. His first Breeders’ Cup success in 2008 clinched an Eclipse Award as the top Turf horse to have raced in the US that year.

Phoenix Reach, successful in 2003, also enjoyed international Group One honours as he triumphed in the Hong Kong Vase, Dubai Sheema Classic and Canadian International.

A thrilling finish in 2012 saw Noble Mission, a full-brother to the outstanding Frankel (a dual winner of the Qatar Sussex Stakes at Glorious Goodwood), prevail by a nose from Encke.

The runner-up went on to take the Ladbrokes St Leger at Doncaster in the September, denying Camelot the Triple Crown in the process, while Noble Mission went on to win three Group One prizes as a five-year-old, including the Champion Stakes.

Sir Michael Stoute is the trainer with by far the best record in the Gordon Stakes, achieving his eighth success in 2014 with Snow Sky, who went to finish third in the Ladbrokes St Leger and has won two Group Two races this summer, the Yorkshire Cup and the Hardwicke Stakes.

Stoute’s top winner has been Harbinger, who was rated the best horse in the world in 2010 on the back of a devastating 11 lengths success in the King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Ascot.

The 12 runners in the 1996 running was the highest number of horses to participate in the race’s history. There have been 28 winning favourites out of the 69 runnings since 1946, the latest being the 2010 victor Rebel Soldier at 4-1.

Neptune Investment Management took over sponsorship in 2013, with an initial five-year deal, and boosted the prize money which is now £100,000.

33 | QATAR GOODWOOD FESTIVAL | WEDNESDAY

The Qatar Sussex Stakes is one of Europe’s most prestigious mile contests, with a roll of honour to match any major horse race in the world. Goodwood’s race of champions

had inauspicious beginnings, however.

Lord George Bentinck and the fifth Duke of Richmond devised the race for two-year-olds, but it did not match the prestige of either the Stewards’ Cup or the Goodwood Cup.

First staged in 1841, the Sussex Stakes was aimed at two-year-olds for 37 years. During that time, however, the race was uncontested on no fewer than 25 occasions and included 14 walkovers!

The race’s fortunes changed for the better after 1878 when it became a mile event for three-year- olds. Its status rose so that by 1885 the 2,000 Guineas winner Paradox lined up and augmented his Classic triumph with victory on the Sussex Downs.

Royal patronage was received in 1909 when King Edward VII’s Derby winner Minoru took the spoils, his victory coming three years after Troutbeck, owned by the second Duke Of Westminster, won en route to Classic success in the St Leger at Doncaster.

Other winners of note in that period include 1,000 Guineas scorer Winkipop (1910), the prolific Stedfast (1911) and two more St Leger heroes in Tracery (1912) and Black Jester (1914).

The First World War (1914-18) halted the sport at Goodwood including the Sussex Stakes and, upon racing’s resumption, the Sussex Stakes failed to draw the same

calibre of horses. It took until 1932 when the Aga Khan’s Irish Derby victor Datsur won for the race’s profile to be raised again.

Within a decade, global conflict had once more caused the cessation of racing at Goodwood. After Eastern Echo won a replacement contest staged at Newmarket’s July Course in 1941, the Sussex Stakes was not held until 1946 when a golden era ensued.

The post-war years witnessed the ascendance of the Sussex Stakes as a premier mile championship event. In 1948, the Maharaja of Baroda’s My Babu, who had earlier won the 2,000 Guineas at

Newmarket, became the first of eight horses since 1945 to win the first colts’ Classic and the Sussex Stakes in the same season.

The others to complete this famous double have been Palestine (1950), Brigadier Gerard (1971), Bolkonski (1975), Wollow (1976), Rock Of Gibraltar (2002), Henrythenavigator (2008) and Frankel (2011) - some of the best horses seen on British turf.

The Queen owned the winner of the 1954 Sussex Stakes, Landau, who was ridden by Willie Snaith following the accident to Sir Gordon Richards which ended the leading jockey’s career 18 days earlier.

Brigadier Gerard was one of the greatest horses to race in Britain. The Dick Hern-trained superstar was successful on 17 of his 18 career starts over three seasons, ranging from six furlongs to a mile and a half. Brigadier Gerard made all to win the 1971 Sussex Stakes comprehensively by five lengths.

More recently, Rock Of Gibraltar equalled the record of six consecutive Group One victories, set by Brigadier Gerard’s one-time rival Mill Reef, when defeating the previous year’s winner, Godolphin’s Noverre, in 2002.

Four-year-olds were allowed to compete from 1960 and, after another 15 years, five-year-olds and upwards were also able to run in the Sussex Stakes. Le Levanstell, trained in Ireland by Seamus McGrath, became the first four-year-old to succeed in 1961, while the oldest winners have been six-year- olds Noalcoholic (1983) and Court Masterpiece (2006).

Three fillies have won the 1,000 Guineas and Sussex Stakes in the same season – On The House (1982), Humble Duty (1970) and the great Petite Etoile, who, ridden by Lester Piggott, justified odds of 1-10 to beat five rivals in 1959.

Trained by Sir Noel Murless for Prince Aly Khan, the grey Petite Etoile had also won the Free Handicap and Oaks before Goodwood and later captured the Yorkshire Oaks, Champion Stakes and the Coronation Cup twice. She won a total of 14 races ranging in distance from five furlongs to a mile and a half.

Another superb filly, Marling, narrowly missed out in the 1992 1,000 Guineas but made no mistake in the Sussex Stakes later that summer. Lining up against the imposing figure of the previous year’s champion miler, Selkirk, the brilliant daughter of Marwell dug deep to repel her older rival at the end of one of the most thrilling duels a Goodwood crowd has ever witnessed.

Sayyedati, trained by Clive Brittain, took the Sussex Stakes in 1995, having landed the 1,000 Guineas two years earlier. Sonic Lady, second in the 1,000 Guineas, made amends in the 1986 Sussex Stakes, having already annexed the Irish 1,000 Guineas, and subsequently won the Prix du Moulin.

Most of the best milers of recent years have landed the Sussex Stakes and the roll of honour also includes such greats as Kris (1979), Chief Singer (1984), Soviet Star (1987), Warning (1988), Zilzal (1989) Giant’s Causeway (2000), Rock Of Gibraltar (2002), and Frankel (2011 & 2012).

Godolphin’s Aljabr put up a tremendous front-running display in 1999 that resulted in the grey colt lowering the course record, while 2000 saw the “Iron Horse” Giant’s Causeway, trained by Aidan O’Brien, collect the third of five consecutive Group One wins that season.

Ramonti, owned by Godolphin, captured a thrilling renewal of the Sussex Stakes by a head from Excellent Art and gained four Group Ones in 2007 as well as finishing a close second in another two.

The 2008 winner Henrythenavigator replicated the feat of Rock Of Gibraltar in winning the English and Irish 2,000 Guineas, St James’s Palace Stakes and Sussex Stakes in the same season. O’Brien, who trained both horses, was on target for

a fourth time in the 2009 renewal when Rip Van Winkle gained an impressive victory.

Rip Van Winkle attempted a second triumph in 2010 but was no match for the Richard Hannon-trained three-year-old Canford Cliffs. The Irish 2,000 Guineas and St James’s Palace Stakes winner unleashed a scintillating burst of speed to win by a cheeky neck under Richard Hughes.

Canford Cliffs returned in 2011 for the ‘The Duel on the Downs’ with the unbeaten three-year-old Frankel taking him on. Frankel put up a brilliant performance, making all to beat Canford Cliffs impressively by five lengths and confirming his position as a horse completely out of the ordinary.

Frankel created history in 2012 by becoming the first horse to win the Qatar Sussex Stakes twice. Starting at odds of 1/20, the hottest-ever favourite in the race’s history, the amazing colt had little difficulty in going away from his closest rival Farhh by six lengths - a joint record winning distance.

Frankel retired at the end of 2012, having won all 14 of his starts and was given a rating of 140 in the World Thoroughbred Racehorse Rankings - the highest since the system was established in 1977.

Goodwood played host to another ‘Duel on the Downs’ in 2013 as three-year-olds Dawn Approach and Toronado squared up for a third time that year. The Jim Bolger- trained Dawn Approach had beaten his rival when winning both the QIPCO 2000 Guineas and St James’s Palace Stakes, with only a short-head separating the pair at Royal Ascot.

But Toronado gained his revenge at Goodwood as Richard Hannon’s colt

swooped from the rear under a typically audacious Richard Hughes ride to collar Dawn Approach near the line and prevail by half a length.

Frankel’s owner Khalid Abdullah was on the scoresheet again with Kingman in 2014. The John Gosden-trained colt produced his trademark burst of speed to mow down 2013 winner Toronado inside the final furlong. Kingman retired with seven victories from eight starts and was crowned Cartier’s Horse Of The Year.Sir Gordon Richards, with eight victories, has been the most successful jockey in the race’s history, enjoying his first win on Marconigram in 1928 and final one on Agitator in 1952. Richards, who was knighted in 1953, made the Sussex Stakes almost his own from 1946 through to 1952, winning the mile contest five times in seven runnings. Piggott and Pat Eddery each triumphed on six occasions.

Eddery’s first victory came aboard Posse in 1980 and further success followed with King’s Lake (1981), Warning (1988), Marling (1992) and Distant View (1994). The jockey had already decided to retire from race riding at the end of the 2003 season when he went to post aboard 20-1 shot Reel Buddy for that season’s Sussex Stakes. The unheralded outsider, the longest-priced horse to win the Sussex Stakes since 1946, provided the fairytale ending to a phenomenal riding career, swooping from last to first under a vintage Eddery ride to score by a head.

There have been 69 renewals since 1946 and 38 favourites have won, including six of the last seven.

The new Qatar sponsorship of the Sussex Stakes has seen the prize money more than triple to £1 million from £300,000 in 2014.

FAIRMONT MOLECOMB STAKES (GROUP THREE)

£75,000, WEDNESDAY, JULY 29, 2015

TWO-YEAR-OLDS ONLY. FIVE FURLONGS. FIRST RUN 1829 (NOTE: TWO-YEAR-OLD FILLIES ONLY 1932-80)

The Molecomb Stakes is named after part of the Goodwood Estate and for

nearly half of the 20th century the race was restricted to fillies.

The Maktoum family celebrated a first-ever Group victory when Hatta won the 1977 renewal for Arundel trainer John Dunlop, while the brilliant Marwell won the last fillies-only race in 1980.

Fillies have continued to do well, with 14 successful since 1981, including Hoh Magic who added the Group One Prix Morny in 1994 and Carmine Lake, victorious in 1996 before defeating the best sprinters in Europe in the 1997 Prix de l’Abbaye.

Enticing triumphed in 2006 and returned to the Glorious Goodwood winner’s enclosure in the 2008 King George Stakes over the same trip, while another speedy filly, Fleeting Spirit, won in 2007 and then took the 2009 Group One Darley July Cup.

Colts have done better and among high-class ones to have triumphed was Precocious, who prevailed in 1983 and went on to win the Group Two Gimcrack Stakes at York in an unbeaten campaign.

Finjaan won the 2008 Molecomb Stakes and ended the season as one of the leading two-year-old colts after going down by two noses when third to intense Focus in the Group One Dewhurst Stakes at Newmarket.

Irish-trained horses have been successful six times, with the latest successful raider being the David Wachman-trained Requinto in 2011. 33 of the 69 runnings since 1946 have gone to the market leader, most recently in 2010 when Zebedee won at 2-1. The shortest priced favourite was 1-8 chance Diableretta in 1949. At the other end of the odds’ spectrum, Hotbee triumphed at 100-1 in 1985.

Richard Hannon snr and Richard Hughes enjoyed successive victories with Monsieur Chevalier (2009) and Zebedee (2010), while in 2012 Mick Channon won his third Molecomb Stakes with Bungle Inthejungle and Hannon got back on the roll of honour with Brown Sugar in 2013, his last year of training.

Charlie Hills sent out Cotai Glory to win in 2014 in a new course record time of 57.30s, bettering Requinto’s time of 57.51s set in the 2011 Molecomb Stakes.

The incomparable Lester Piggott gained eight victories in the Molecomb Stakes during his brilliant riding career - the first in 1957 on Abelia and the final one with Precocious in 1983.

A French success came through Palariva, who was awarded the spoils by the stewards after finishing a head second in 1955.

39 | QATAR GOODWOOD FESTIVAL | THURSDAY

As with several of the fiercely competitive handicaps at Glorious

Goodwood, winners of this race often go on to make their mark in Pattern races.

The 1987 victor, Broken Hearted, added the then Group Two Lockinge Stakes at Newbury the following spring before finishing a close second to the brilliant Mtoto in the Prince Of Wales’s Stakes at Royal Ascot.

Macaw’s victory in 2002 prompted a transatlantic sale and the gelding twice finished runner-up in the highest class before winning a Grade Three at Keeneland. Tiber (2003) and Art Trader (2004) both continued their careers with Group Three victories in Hong Kong.

The William Muir-trained Enforcer (2005) was another to clinch Group Three success and he also reached the frame in three Group One races during 2006.

The 2007 winner Pipedreamer made the frame in a Group One before winning

Group Two contests in both 2008 and 2009. Indian Days scored for James Given in 2008 and won a Turkish Group Two in 2010 as well as the Group Three John Porter Stakes in 2011.

The 2012 winner Grandeur, trained by Jeremy Noseda, subsequently raced in the US, with Grade Two victories at Santa Anita and Hollywood Park, while he was also second in the Grade One Hollywood Derby.

Luca Cumani used to have the best record of any trainer, with four victories including three in successive years, 1984 to 1986 inclusive, but was joined on that number by Mark Johnston in 2009, while Beachfire scored to in 2010 to give John Gosden a third success.

Johnston went into a clear lead after Broughton took the spoils in 2013 and his tally reached six when Lyn Valley led home a one-two for the stable in 2014.

41 | QATAR GOODWOOD FESTIVAL | THURSDAY

The sixth Duke of Richmond gave his family name to this race in the days

when future Classic winners were more precocious than they are now. It was appropriate then that a horse named Duke Of Richmond won the Richmond Stakes in 1883.

Plenty of future stars have won this prestigious contest, such as the St Leger and Ascot Gold Cup hero Bayardo (1908), as well as Derby winners Persimmon (1895), Pommern (1914) and the Aga Khan’s 1935 victor, the subsequent Triple Crown winner Mahmoud. Palestine triumphed in 1949 and progressed to take the 2,000 Guineas and Sussex Stakes in 1950.

Nowadays, sharp types and future sprinters tend to win the Qatar Richmond Stakes and the downhill six-furlong Goodwood track puts the emphasis on speed.

Having said that, the Guy Harwood-trained Warning took the spoils in 1987 and progressed the following season to win the Group One Sussex Stakes back at Glorious Goodwood and the Group One Queen Elizabeth II Stakes at Ascot.

Bachir was successful in 1999 and he went on to capture both the French and Irish 2,000 Guineas for Godolphin the following year.

The 2000 winner, Endless Summer, was subsequently disqualified when it came to light that he was actually a three-year-old, having been foaled on December 26, 1997, and not January 2, 1998, as registered.

Dick Turpin was a top-class winner for trainer Richard Hannon snr and jockey Richard Hughes in 2009. He took the Group One Prix Jean Prat as a three-year-old and won an Italian Group One in 2011.

Hannon and Hughes, triumphant in 2008 with Prolific, reeled off a hat-trick as Libranno gained the spoils in 2010 and managed a four-timer the following year with Harbour Watch. Hannon, who also sent out the winner in 1992 with Son Pardo, holds the record as the most successful trainer of the Richmond Stakes with five victories.

Richard Hannon jnr, in his first season as the licence holder, gained more glory for his family when saddling the smart Ivawood to victory in 2014.

Lester Piggott partnered six winners of the race during his illustrious career.

A total of 32 of the 69 market leaders since 1946 have come home in front.

Prize money for the Qatar Richmond Stakes has jumped to £200,000 from £80,000 this year, thanks to new sponsorship.

43 | QATAR GOODWOOD FESTIVAL | THURSDAY

One of the oldest events in the Flat calendar, the Goodwood Cup was

established in 1812 as a three-mile race. The distance dropped to two miles in 1825 and then settled at two miles and five furlongs from 1833 before being reduced to two and a half miles in 1990 due to the repositioning of the winning post. Following the Jockey Club’s review of staying races, the distance went back to two miles in 1991 and remains at that trip.

King George IV was successful with Fleur De Lis in 1829 but, when the horse returned 12 months later to win again, the monarch had passed away (June 26, 1830) and the owner was his brother, King William IV, who also had the second and third, Zinganee and The Colonel.

Fleur de Lis tried for three in a row in 1831 but she was beaten by Priam, who became the first Derby winner (1830) to win the Goodwood Cup. Priam, one of the best horses to race in the 19th century, took the Cup again in 1832.

There was plenty of interest in the race from France and Beggarman (1840), Jouvence (1853), Monarque (1857) and Flageolet

(1973) all represented French interests, while Starke (1861) originated in America.

Other great winners in the 19th century were the supremely tough and talented filly Virago (1854) and the unbeaten St Simon (1884).

Also on the roll of honour is the great Hungarian-bred mare, Kincsem, successful in 1878 on her sole start in Britain. Kincsem was the outsider of three runners but she never appeared in danger of giving up an unbeaten run which stretched to 54 races on her retirement. She also won races in Austria, France and Germany as well as in Hungary.

Brown Jack, so good at Ascot, got on the Goodwood Cup roll of honour in 1930, while excellent performers such as Alycidon (1949), the French-trained Pan (1951), Souepi (1953), Zarathustra (1956), Gladness (1958), Trelawny (1963), Rock Roi (1971) and Erimo Hawk (1972) all succeeded.

More recently, such champion stayers as Le Moss (1979 & 80), Ardross (1981), Double Trigger (1995/97/98), Kayf Tara (1999) and Yeats (2006 & 08) have triumphed.

The race was downgraded to Group Three from Group Two status for the 1986 running, despite the Ascot Gold Cup/Goodwood Cup double having been achieved five times from 1979 to 1984. In 1995, it deservedly regained Group Two status.

That same year, the Goodwood Cup was won by the remarkable Double Trigger, who went on to complete the stayers’ Triple Crown in the Doncaster Cup, having already taken the Gold Cup at Ascot. He was the latest of six horses to succeed in the three races of the stayers’ Triple Crown. The other horses were Isonomy (1879), Alycidon (1949), Souepi (1953), Le Moss (1979 & 80), and Longboat (1986). The Goodwood Cup is sandwiched between the Gold Cup over two and a half miles at Ascot in June and the Doncaster Cup over two and a quarter miles in September.

Double Trigger returned for a second Goodwood Cup victory in 1997 and created history with his third success in 1998, becoming the only three-time winner to great celebration.

His trainer, Mark Johnston, also captured the Goodwood Cup in 2000 with Ascot Gold Cup winner Royal Rebel, who came second in 2004 to stable companion Darasim.

The Saeed bin Suroor-trained Kayf Tara, the 1998 and 2000 Ascot Gold Cup winner, put up a dazzling display for Godolphin in 1999 to give Frankie Dettori his first of three successes in the Goodwood race.

Persian Punch, one of the most popular stayers of recent times, proved too good for his 11 rivals in 2001 and returned to claim victory again in the 2003 renewal, beating 2002 winner Jardines Lookout, who had

been a rare three-year-old scorer, when rallying to get up by a short-head.

Aged 10, that victory, which sent the large crowd into raptures, saw the front-running Persian Punch become the oldest horse ever to win the Goodwood Cup. The wonderful campaigner, so game in his races, ran six times in total in the Goodwood Cup. He was also third, fifth twice and last. His ashes were scattered near the winning post at Goodwood soon after his demise in 2004.

Yeats was without doubt one of the greatest stayers of the modern era with an unprecedented four Ascot Gold Cup triumphs to his name and the Aidan O’Brien-trained champion was imperious in winning a second Goodwood Cup in 2008, having first triumphed in 2006.

The filly Allegretto was successful from 14 rivals in 2007 and she ended that year by winning a Group One event in France, while Schiaparelli, owned like Kayf Tara by Godolphin and ridden by Dettori, stepped up to two miles for the first time at Goodwood in 2009 after taking four Group Ones at 12 furlongs, won well and subsequently captured another Group One.

Goodwood specialist Illustrious Blue took the 2010 renewal for local trainer William Knight, who is based at Angmering Park near Arundel. The seven-year-old had scored at Goodwood six times previously, from seven to 12 furlongs.

Godolphin and Dettori enjoyed a third Goodwood Cup victory in 2011 with the Mahmood Al Zarooni-trained Opinion Poll, one of the top stayers of the year, who also triumphed in York’s Lonsdale Cup and was second in the Gold Cup at Ascot, the Doncaster Cup and the QIPCO British Champions Long Distance Cup.

In 2012, Irish handler John Oxx scored with Saddler’s Rock, who became the trainer’s first winner at Goodwood, while Tom Dascombe-trained Brown Panther took the spoils in 2013 to great acclaim for his part-owner and breeder Michael Owen, the former England footballer.

Lester Piggott (Gladness (1958), Exar (1960), Proverb (1974), Girandole (1975) & Ardross (1981) and Pat Eddery (Erimo Hawk (1972), Valuable Witness (1985), Mazzacano (1989), Sonus (1993) & Grey Shot (1996)) both partnered five winners of the Goodwood Cup, while more recently Mick Kinane enjoyed four successes. In earlier times, Jem Robinson, George Fordham and Steve Donoghue also achieved five Goodwood Cup triumphs.

The most successful trainer since 1946 was Cecil Boyd-Rochfort with six victories, while Barry Hills and Mark Johnston have five wins each.

John Scott’s record of saddling the winner seven times came through Hornsea (1836), Carew (1837), Charles the Twelfth (1841 & 1842), Canezou (1849 & 1850) & Sweetsauce (1860).

The age of the winners since 1946 has been: 3yo - 7; 4yo - 28; 5yo - 18; 6yo - 8; 7yo - 4; 8yo - 2; 9yo - 1; 10yo - 1, while 35 out of the 69 winners started favourite.

Cavalryman gave Saeed bin Suroor his third Goodwood Cup success in 2014 and the eight-year-old provided Godolphin with a fourth victory.

The 2015 running is worth £300,000, more than double the £120,000 on offer last year.

46 | QATAR GOODWOOD FESTIVAL | THURSDAY

This race was introduced to the Goodwood programme in 2003 as the

Gladness Stakes, a Listed contest named after the 1958 Goodwood Cup winner, and the Rae Guest-trained Moments Of Joy won from nine rivals by coming from last to first.

The following year the 14-furlong contest was upgraded to Group Three status and called the Lillie Langtry Stakes after the famous actress and mistress of the future Edward VII. Astrocharm beat Pongee who went on to run second in the Group One Yorkshire Oaks.

Tartouche, trained near Arundel by Lady Herries, won by a length in 2005 and followed up in 2006 in a tighter finish, prevailing by neck.

The Sir Michael Stoute-trained Hi Calypso came from last to first as she gained victory in 2007, before beating All My Loving in the Group Two Park Hill Stakes at Doncaster.

Gravitation and Folk Opera provided a treat in 2008 as they duelled to the line from fully two furlongs out. The William Jarvis-trained Gravitation, ridden by Alan Munro, nailed her rival in the final stride to clinch a hard-fought success. The runner-up subsequently triumphed in the Grade One E P Taylor Stakes at Woodbine, Canada.

Sevenna, with Tom Queally up, came good in 2009 for Newmarket trainer Sir Henry Cecil, while the Mark Johnston-trained Eastern Aria triumphed in 2010 and went on to add Doncaster’s Group Two Park Hill Stakes to her list of successes.

Meeznah, ridden by Frankie Dettori, won for trainer David Lanigan in 2011 and also added the Park Hill Stakes to her CV.

Wild Coco became Sir Henry Cecil’s second winner in 2012 and also followed up in the Park Hill Stakes next time out before returning in 2013 to claim a second Lillie Langtry Stakes, this time for Sir Henry’s widow Lady Cecil.

Last year, Missunited became the first Irish-trained winner when repelling all challengers gamely to score for Michael Winters and Jim Crowley.

Only three of the 12 favourites have succeeded. Seb Sanders and Tom Queally have partnered the winner on three occasions.

47 | QATAR GOODWOOD FESTIVAL | FRIDAY

Staged up until 1989 as the Alycidon Glorious Stakes, in honour of the

Goodwood Cup hero of 1949 and stayers’ Triple Crown winner.

The conditions of the race were changed in 1993 and it became a limited handicap (weights 8st 7lb to 9st 7lb with a rating band of 0-105) for older horses. The contest immediately attracted a double-figure field of runners for the first time. The rating band became 0-110 from 1994 and in 2008 it stopped being a handicap when granted Group Three status.

The Mark Johnston-trained Darasim won three times at Glorious Goodwood. After taking this race in 2002 and a handicap in 2003, he gained his biggest triumph in the Goodwood Cup of 2004.

Mamool enjoyed Group One success prior to winning this race in 2006, while the 2007 winner Purple Moon went agonisingly close as runner-up in that year’s Melbourne Cup and the 2008 Hong Kong Vase.

Alkaased (2004) was one of the best winners of the Glorious Stakes, afterwards going on to capture the Group One Grand Prix de Saint Cloud and the Japan Cup in 2005.

The 2008 victor Sixties Icon, successful in the St Leger two years previously, obviously had a liking for Goodwood as that was his third course victory.

Illustrious Blue is another horse who thrived at Goodwood, recording his sixth success at the course in the 2009 Coutts Glorious Stakes. The locally-trained horse

subsequently made it seven when winning the 2010 Goodwood Cup.

Redwood won well in 2010 and progressed to success in a Canadian Group One race, while last year’s victor Pether’s Moon lowered the colours of Dolniya and Flintshire in the 2015 Group One Coronation Cup at Epsom.

Remarkably, Newmarket trainer Luca Cumani has sent out seven winners, including Purple Moon, Alkaased, Drunken Sailor (2011) and Quest For Peace (2012), who went on to win the Listed March Stakes later the same year.

Favourites have won 13 of the 36 runnings.

48 | QATAR GOODWOOD FESTIVAL | FRIDAY

The race was previously a conditions contest, initially called the Surplice

Stakes in 1986. Great Dane proved a worthy winner of the inaugural running of the Listed Thoroughbred Stakes in 1998. That victory commenced a five-race winning sequence for the horse that spilled over into the following year and culminated with success in a Group Two contest at the Curragh, Ireland.

Adilabad, who twice won the Group Three Winter Hill Stakes at Windsor, scored here from Summoner in 2000. The runner-up caused a major upset the next season when winning Ascot’s Group One Queen Elizabeth II Stakes at 33-1. Another to go

on and win that prestigious Ascot contest was Where Or When, the 2002 victor.

The Goodwood race continued its tradition of showcasing top talent in 2003 when Court Masterpiece landed the spoils. He returned to Goodwood in 2005, winning the Lennox Stakes, before enjoying his biggest triumph when defeating Soviet Song to win the Sussex Stakes in 2006.

River Proud, third previously in the French equivalent of the 2,000 Guineas, succeeded in 2008 from Godolphin’s Alexandros.

Zacinto made his seasonal reappearance in the 2009 renewal, winning by a head under Ryan Moore and then returned to

Goodwood a month later to finish second in the Group Two Betfair Celebration Mile, only to be subsequently awarded the race after Delegator failed a drug test.

The Thoroughbred Stakes was promoted to Group Three status in 2012, when there was a thrilling dead-heat between the Brian Meehan-trained Archbishop and Richard Hannon’s Trumpet Major. Hannon snr scored again in 2013 with Jersey Stakes runner-up Montiridge, his third and final success after sending out Forward Move to victory in 2005.

Only three out of the 17 favourites have won, the most recent being Montiridge in 2013.

BETFRED MILE (HERITAGE HANDICAP)

£150,000, FRIDAY, JULY 31, 2015

THREE-YEAR-OLDS & UPWARDS. ONE MILE. FIRST RUN 1987.

The Betfred Mile is one of the top handicaps of the season and, with a

prize fund of £150,000, it remains among the richest handicaps in Europe.

Waajib was a fine winner of the inaugural running - called the Schweppes Golden Mile - as he went on to win the then Group Two Queen Anne Stakes at Royal Ascot the following year. Safawan stepped up from his 1989 win to take the then Group Two Lockinge Stakes in 1990, while Fly To The Stars won at Goodwood in 1997 and landed the Lockinge - by then a Group One - in 1999.

Ancient World became notable in 2004 as he was the first favourite to win at 9-2. The four year-old, owned by Godolphin and trained by Saeed bin Suroor, enhanced the contest’s reputation with a Group Three victory at Windsor followed by a deserved triumph in the Group One Premio Vittorio Di Capua in Italy that autumn.

The second market leader to win was 5-2 chance Third Set who scored by three lengths in 2007, the first of two consecutive winners sent out by Roger Charlton. Fifteen Love had already captured the Britannia Handicap at Royal Ascot in June, 2008, and

clinched a major handicap double when winning the Goodwood race.

Mark Johnston emulated that feat when he saddled back-to-back winners with Laa Rayb (2009) and subsequent Group Three victor Sea Lord (2010). Johnston is by far the most successful trainer in the Betfred Mile’s short history with five victories, having also been successful in 1997 with Fly To The Stars, in 2001 with Riberac and in 2012 with Fulbright, who subsequently captured the Group Two Challenge Stakes at Newmarket.

In 2011, Hayley Turner, Britain’s most successful female jockey ever, made all on the Marcus Tregoning-trained Boom And Bust to gain her first Glorious Goodwood success.

Richard Hannon snr, in his final year as a trainer, mended a gap in his CV by taking the spoils with Wentworth in 2013, while Red Avenger, trained by Ed Dunlop, emerged in front after a five-way photo-finish last year.

The age profile of the winners has been 3yo - 8; 4yo - 10; 5yo - 9 and 6yo - 1. Only two of the 28 market leaders have triumphed.

51 QATAR GOODWOOD FESTIVAL | FRIDAY

A showcase for raw speed, this prestigious sprint was introduced in

1911 to mark the previous year’s succession of King George V to the British throne.

The Group Two Qatar King George Stakes is Goodwood’s top sprint and in 2002 was named the King George 200th Anniversary Stakes to celebrate 200 years of racing at Goodwood.

Sir Gordon Richards rode the winner in six consecutive seasons from 1947 to 1952, including on the great Abernant in both 1949 and 1950.

Right Boy and Lester Piggott emulated Abernant’s feat in 1958 and 1959, while the brilliant mare Lochsong defeated Paris House in a thrilling finish to the 1993 renewal and saw off Mistertopogigo 12 months later. Lochsong won the Group One Prix de l’Abbaye at Longchamp in both of those years.

Another talented mare, Hever Golf Rose, triumphed in 1995 and capped a tremendous season with victory in the Prix de l’Abbaye. Fillies and mares are etched in the folklore of the King George Stakes, with Land Of Dreams (1998), Cassandra Go (2000), Agnetha (2002), La Cucaracha (2006) and Ortensia (2012) also beating the boys in recent years.

Soba, ridden by Dandy Nicholls who is now known as a trainer of sprinters, succeeded in 1983, the year after her victory in the Qatar Stewards’ Cup, while Enticing continued the trend in 2008 as the William Haggas-trained filly scored by a length.

Kingsgate Native, a dual Group One winner, was most impressive when successful in 2009, beating Total Gallery who subsequently captured the Group One Prix de l’Abbaye de Longchamp.

The race was promoted to Group Two status for 2010, when Borderlescott, successful in the 2006 Stewards’ Cup and twice victorious in the Group One Nunthorpe Stakes (2008 & 2009), landed the prize for Yorkshire trainer Robin Bastiman as the 9-2 favourite. Borderlescott has run at the Qatar Goodwood Festival eight times in all.

Another Northern trainer, Kevin Ryan, went onto the scoreboard in 2011 when he sent out Masamah to win in great style.

Ahonoora (1978/1979), trained by former jockey Frankie Durr, was the only other horse, apart from Soba, to achieve back-to-back Stewards’ Cup/King George Stakes doubles since the Second World War.

In 2012, Ortensia became the first Australian-trained horse to win at

Goodwood when showing a devastating turn of foot. A Group One scorer in her homeland and in Dubai, the Paul Messara-trained mare went on to land the Group One Nunthorpe Stakes at York.

Harry Redknapp was in the winners’ enclosure in 2013 as an owner courtesy of Moviesta, who became the first three-year-old to score since Irish raider Agnetha in 2002. Moviesta, trained in Yorkshire by Bryan Smart, failed by a neck and short-head when third in 2014 to Take Cover, who provided another Yorkshire-based trainer, David Griffiths, with his biggest success.

Lester Piggott rode an amazing nine winners of this race between 1958 and 1984, while Sir Michael Stoute sent out his third winner in 2009 and is catching up to Paddy Prendergast’s achievement of training four victors.

The age of the winners since 1946 has been 3yo - 30; 4yo - 20; 5yo - 10; 6yo - 6; 7yo- 2; 8yo - 1, while 26 out of the 69 markets leaders have triumphed.

The Qatar King George Stakes has tripled in value since, being boosted to £300,000 this year.

The L’Ormarins Queens Plate Stakes started life as the New Stand Stakes

in 1980 and was the first race of that year’s Glorious Goodwood to mark the opening of the new March Grandstand by Her Majesty The Queen.

From 1982, it has been known as the Oak Tree Stakes, so named because of the close link between Goodwood and the Oak Tree Racing Association of California, which used to stage an annual race meeting at Santa Anita Park, including the Goodwood Stakes, but for the last few years has been inactive.

A new connection was established in 2014 with L’Ormarins, sponsors of the L’Ormarins Queen’s Plate Stakes at Kenilworth Racecourse in Cape Town, South Africa each January.

The Oak Tree Stakes, for fillies and mares, moved to the Friday of Glorious Goodwood in 2003 and was upgraded to Group Three from Listed status the following year when Chic finished third to Phantom Wind. Chic went on to win the Celebration Mile at Goodwood four weeks later and captured that Group Two prize again in 2004.

Majestic Desert had knocked on the door several times in Group One races without success and gained a deserved victory in the 2005 renewal. Red Evie, on the other hand, secured her sixth straight victory when taking the 2006 Oak Tree Stakes and progressed to win a pair of Group One races.

The 2008 winner Visit switched to racing in America later that year and finished in the frame in nine Group/Grade One races, including four times at Santa Anita.

Chachamaidee was the impressive scorer for trainer Sir Henry Cecil – his sixth victory - in 2011, winning by two and three quarter lengths under Tom Queally. She went on to land the Group One Matron Stakes the following season.

Jeremy Noseda recorded his first win in the race in 2012 with Regal Realm, while the 2013 winner Annecdote was a first Glorious Goodwood success for trainer Jonathan Portman and J Wonder has raced in America this year after winning the 2014 running in a late flourish.

Steve Cauthen partnered four scorers – the highest number by any jockey. Success has gone to 12 of the 35 market leaders in the L’Ormarins Queens Plate Stakes.

The Educate A Child Handicap has been won by some high-class individuals

but pre-eminent among them is the brilliant Pilsudski, victorious in 1995 for trainer Sir Michael Stoute.

The colt progressed into a superstar over the next two seasons as he triumphed in premier Group One races such as the Breeders’ Cup Turf, Japan Cup, Eclipse Stakes and both the English and Irish Champion Stakes.

The middle distance handicap has also gone the way of Midnight Legend, now a leading National Hunt sire, and Maylane, who went on to take the Group Three September Stakes at Epsom.

Midnight Legend’s trainer Luca Cumani won four of the first seven runnings of the race. His other successes came with Black Monday (1990), Tidemark (1991) and Freequent (1996).

Sir Michael Stoute has enjoyed five victories in all, the most recent in 2010 through Verdant. The Newmarket trainer was also responsible for Muhib (1998), Mary Stuart (1999) and Regal Flush (2007) besides Pilsudski.

The 2003 winner, No Refuge, subsequently made his mark over hurdles with a Grade One victory at the 2005 Cheltenham Festival.

Goodwood celebrated in 2008 with one of its greatest friends when renaming the race the Sir Peter O’Sullevan ‘The Voice of Racing’ 90th Birthday Handicap.

Mark Johnston has good recent record in the race, scoring with Love Galore (2008), Sir Graham Wade (2012) and Double Bluff (2014).

Only four market leaders have been successful in the 25 runnings, the most recent being Mary Stuart at 9/4 back in 1999.

Established in 1840, the Nassau Stakes was named in recognition of the

friendship between the fifth Duke of Richmond and the Dutch Royal Family, the House of Orange and Nassau.

The race was restricted to three-year-old fillies for the first 135 years of its existence and was granted Group One status in 1999, acknowledging the fact that the near 10-furlong contest had regained the

prestige it enjoyed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, thanks to the victories of top-class winners throughout the 1990s such as Ruby Tiger, Last Second, Ryafan and Alborada.

The early runnings were dominated by fillies owned by Lord George Bentinck and his friends, including George Payne and Charles Greville, who once wrote of Bentinck: “He feared no one and did

nothing by halves.” Bentinck was forced to run his own horses in the colours of friends because his father, the fourth Duke of Portland, strongly disapproved of his son’s heavy gambling.

As the Nassau Stakes gained in popularity, many star fillies of the 19th century triumphed. One such champion to display her prowess was the brilliant Thebais. Trained at Manton by ‘Old Alec’ Taylor, a man reputed to give his yearlings a two-mile gallop before Christmas, Thebais had already taken the 1,000 Guineas and Oaks, before winning at Goodwood in 1881.

La Flèche’s accomplishments leave no doubt as to her brilliance. Successful in the 1,000 Guineas and Oaks - terrible jockeyship cost her the Derby - the great filly triumphed at Goodwood in 1892 and subsequently won the St Leger, Cambridgeshire, Champion Stakes and Gold Cup at Ascot.

Within the span of two years, the fates bestowed upon racing two supreme champion fillies in Sceptre and Pretty Polly. The former began the 1902 campaign in the Lincoln Handicap, finishing second, before winning the 1,000 Guineas, 2,000 Guineas and Oaks. She also came fourth in the Derby, was unplaced in the Grand Prix de Paris, won the St James’s Palace Stakes and took fourth in the Coronation Stakes at Royal Ascot, before owner/trainer Bob Sievier sent her to Glorious Goodwood.

Sceptre was beaten in the Sussex Stakes but stepped out later in the week to take victory in the Nassau Stakes. She became the only horse in Turf history to win four British Classics when capturing the St Leger that September.

While Sceptre had been kept very busy around the racecourses of England to prove her mettle, Pretty Polly enjoyed a career more becoming a champion filly. She lined up for the 1904 Nassau Stakes the winner of the 1,000 Guineas, Oaks and Coronation Stakes, and was sent off the 1/33 favourite. She remains the shortest-priced winner in Nassau Stakes history and emulated Sceptre in adding the St Leger to her famous triumphs.

Racing at Goodwood did not take place during the war years of 1914-18 and 1940- 45. Upon the resumption of the sport at the course following the Second World War in 1946, Wayward Belle won the Nassau Stakes for Jack Jarvis and jockey Eph Smith.

It was Lester Piggott, however, successful five times, along with trainers Sir Noel Murless, Sir Michael Stoute and Sir Henry Cecil, who would come to dominate the post-war roll of honour. Murless, with six wins, and Piggott joined forces to secure victory with Aunt Edith (1965) who also triumphed in the Prix Vermeille, Yorkshire Cup and King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes.

In the decade after Aunt Edith, the Nassau Stakes, while still a race of some consequence, was not producing the same calibre of winners as in its heyday. Racing was already on the cusp of evolving into a global sport and the Goodwood executive, imbued with foresight, sensed the need for a change if the Nassau Stakes was to maintain its standing.

The 1975 renewal thus marked a sea-change as the race was opened to older fillies and mares, yet the Classic generation still prevailed thanks to the three-year-old,

Roussalka, ridden by Piggott and trained by Cecil. The filly returned in 1976 and created history when she became the first four-year-old to take the race as well as becoming the first dual winner.

Park Express in 1986, trained by Jim Bolger, was the first Irish raider to succeed in the Nassau Stakes. She went on to produce the 2008 Derby winner New Approach, also trained by Bolger.

The Nassau Stakes continued to be dominated by three-year-olds up to the turn of the century with the monopoly only broken by the four-year-old Free Guest (1985) and two-time winner Ruby Tiger (1991 - by seven lengths - & 1992) – owned by sculptor and former jump jockey Philip Blacker - who also tasted major success in the E P Taylor Stakes at Woodbine, Canada.

The older generation enjoyed a hold on the race from 2004 through to 2006 as the four-year-olds Favourable Terms (2004) and Alexander Goldrun (2005), as well as the five-year-old Ouija Board (2006), succeeded.

Favourable Terms was a third consecutive winner of the race for trainer Sir Michael Stoute (and seventh in all) and jockey Kieren Fallon, who previously teamed up for success with Islington (2002) and Russian Rhythm (2003). Islington twice won the Group One Yorkshire Oaks and also captured the Grade One Breeders’ Cup Filly & Mare Turf in 2003.

Many a thrilling spectacle has played out on the racecourse beneath Trundle Hill but the 2006 Nassau Stakes was surely one of the most breathtaking in the racecourse’s long history. Bolger’s mare Alexander Goldrun, a Group One winner in France, Britain, Ireland and Hong Kong, had won the previous year’s Nassau Stakes and returned to defend her crown against another global star, the Ed Dunlop-trained Ouija Board.

Both mares arrived at Goodwood seeking a sixth career Group One victory, Ouija Board having proven herself as a Classic-winning Breeders’ Cup heroine.

None who witnessed the scintillating final three furlongs of the 2006 Nassau Stakes will ever forget Ouija Board’s brave strike for home off the turn into the straight; Alexander Goldrun’s smooth progress to narrowly lead; Lord Derby’s mare drawing

on her deepest reserves to edge level; and the moment Ouija Board eyeballed her brave rival into submission.

The redoubtable Ouija Board flashed home by a short-head following the most spectacular Goodwood head-to-head since Marling held Selkirk in the 1992 Sussex Stakes. It was the fourth victory by a short-head since 1945, with the other narrow winners being Hortentia (1952), Lucyrowe (1969), and Favourable Terms (2004).

Newmarket trainer Sir Mark Prescott gained two wins in three years. He saddled Last Second, owned by Faisal Salman and bred by Kirsten Rausing, to win in 1996, and in 1998 Miss Rausing’s Alborada, out of a half-sister to Last Second, was successful, before going on to capture the Champion Stakes at Newmarket.

In 2000 this prestigious contest was won by the Clive Brittain-trained Crimplene, gaining her third Group One success of the season after having won the Irish 1,000 Guineas and Royal Ascot’s Coronation Stakes.

Ed Dunlop, son of former Goodwood Racecourse director and trainer John, saddled his first Group One winner at the course with Lailani in 2001. The Unfuwain filly was achieving her sixth success of the campaign, including the Group One Irish Oaks, and she went on to complete a hat-trick of Group/Grade One wins in the Flower Bowl Invitational at Belmont Park, USA, in September.

Champion Irish trainer Aidan O’Brien sent out Irish Oaks heroine Peeping Fawn to win the 2007 Nassau Stakes and added a further victory in 2008 when Irish 1,000 Guineas winner Halfway To Heaven saw off another Bolger-trained star, Lush Lashes, by a head in a thrilling finish.

The 2009 renewal was another special one, with Midday overcoming nine opponents to win well by two and a half lengths under Tom Queally. It was a return to big-time success at Goodwood for trainer Sir Henry Cecil, celebrating his first Nassau Stakes victory since Lyphard’s Delta in 1993.

Midday went on to win the Grade One Breeders’ Cup Filly & Mare Turf at Santa Anita, USA and returned to Goodwood

for the 2010 Nassau Stakes, for which she was the 15-8 favourite. Khalid Abdullah’s homebred won in thrilling fashion as, sent into the lead two furlongs out, she idled and drifted in front, allowing the previous year’s Prix de Diane heroine Stacelita to overhaul her inside the final furlong.

But Midday, a true champion, rallied gamely under Queally to assert by a cosy length and a quarter. The stewards’ enquiry, which left the placings unaltered, was the first-ever to be televised live. Midday added the Yorkshire Oaks and Prix Vermeille to her haul before finishing a close second in the Breeders’ Cup Filly & Mare Turf.

History was made on the final day of Glorious Goodwood 2011 as the Khalid Abdullah-owned Midday became the first filly or mare to win the Qatar-sponsored Nassau Stakes for the third time. Trained by Cecil, who was winning the race for a record eighth time, and ridden again by Queally. The 6/4 favourite surged clear inside the final two furlongs to see off dual Oaks winner Snow Fairy by two lengths.

With Midday retired, the Abdullah/Cecil/Queally trio almost made it four in a row in 2012 when Timepiece was runner-up to The Fugue, trained by John Gosden and ridden by Richard Hughes for owners Lord and Lady Lloyd-Webber.

Gosden doubled up with 20/1 shot Winsili in 2013 and completed a remarkable hat-trick last year when Sultanina got the better of French raider Narniyn. William Buick has partnered the last two winners.

The market leader has won 26 times in the 69 runnings since 1946.

Qatar’s sponsorship in 2015 has meant a tripling of the prize money from £200,000 to £600,000.

60 | QATAR GOODWOOD FESTIVAL | SATURDAY

The first official staging of the Stewards’ Cup took place in 1840, but the name

actually dates back to 1834 when the senior of the two stewards officiating at Goodwood awarded a cup worth about £100 to any race of his choosing. The chosen race varied year on year, with the Cup being contested over distances ranging from six furlongs to a mile and a half.

Lord George Bentinck conceived the idea of a competitive sprint handicap, largely as a betting medium, in late 1839. So in 1840 the six-furlong Stewards’ Cup, as it is now known, was born.

Epirus, owned by John Bowes, made the long journey from John Scott’s Malton yard in Yorkshire worthwhile as he won the 1840 race under the trainer’s brother William, who had a fondness for the bottle and was frequently so drunk that he was unfit to ride.

By 1849, the race already carried £300 of the total £860 added prize money at the meeting. The Stewards’ Cup still retains its position as one of the most prestigious and valuable handicaps of the season.

The first German-bred winner of the Stewards’ Cup (predating a French-bred

victory on English soil by three years) was Count Hahn’s Turnus, who triumphed in 1850. He defied a penalty to add the Chesterfield Cup at the meeting two days later.

Sweetsauce won the Stewards’ Cup at 20-1 in 1860 and just two days later was victorious in the Goodwood Cup over a stamina-sapping two miles and five furlongs.

In 1883, the previous year’s Oaks heroine Geheimniss led the field approaching the winning post, only to be denied a head by Sir George Chetwynd’s Hornpipe who got up in the final stride to land a major gamble.

Another Classic winner was defeated in 1899 when Northern Farmer finished a neck in front of the 1898 1,000 Guineas winner Nun Nicer.

There have been three dual winners in the history of the Stewards’ Cup. Marvel scored in 1890 and 1892, while Lord Annandale triumphed in 1913 and shared the spoils in a dead-heat the following year with Golden Sun. Sky Diver was victorious in successive years, 1967 and 1968.

The dead-heat between Golden Sun and Lord Annandle is the only time the spoils have been shared.

The outbreak of the First World War saw the race transferred to Newmarket from 1915 to 1917 and not run at all in 1918. The Second World War also halted racing at Goodwood and the 1940 race was abandoned with the following year’s renewal also staged at Newmarket. Windsor hosted a version of the Stewards’ Cup from 1942 to 1945.

The post-war crowds flocked to Goodwood for the Stewards’ Cup of 1947, so much so that Sir Noel Murless, then training at Hambleton in Yorkshire, made the long journey south only to find his horsebox stuck in traffic on the narrow lanes at Singleton, just to the north of the course.

Gwen Murless, the trainer’s quick-thinking wife, unloaded their big-race hope, Closeburn, and jogged him the two miles to the course just in time to saddle him for the Stewards’ Cup. The Murless charge, carrying a then record weight for a three-year-old of 8st 10lb, prevailed by a neck under Gordon Richards.

Twelve years later, Sir Winston Churchill was rewarded when Tudor Monarch carried

his pink and chocolate colours to victory under a youthful Geoff Lewis.

Spillers was the first commercial sponsor of the Stewards’ Cup from 1970, when Lester Piggott partnered Jukebox to victory, until 1980. The 1981 renewal was backed by the tote and then William Hill sponsored between 1982 and 1992. Vodafone supported the race from 1993 right through to 2006, initially under the Vodac banner. Blue Square sponsored from 2007 to 2012, with QIPCO backing the Robins Farm Racing Stewards’ Cup in 2013. 32Red took over the sponsorship in 2014, but a new long-term backer in Qatar was announced in December.

The Stewards’ Cup used to be run on the first day of Glorious Goodwood, the Tuesday, switching to the Saturday in 1993. It is not unusual to see high-class sprinters winning the six-furlong handicap. The brilliant filly Soba made all the running to take the 1982 renewal, one of her 11 victories that season, and returned to Goodwood to win the 1983 King George Stakes.

Dandy (David) Nicholls partnered the flying filly and has since won the race three times as a trainer. The North Yorkshire handler saddled Tayseer to success in 2000, followed up with Gift Horse in 2005 and also primed 20-1 shot Evens And Odds to score in 2010 under 5lb apprentice Billy Cray.

Richard Hughes’ victory on Tayseer meant he became the most successful current jockey in the Stewards’ Cup with three victories and he augmented that position in 2014 with a fourth win on 6/1 chance Intrinsic. His other two triumphs came on Shikari’s Son (1995) and Harmonic Way (1999).

The biggest winning margin since 1946 was in 1987 when the Peter Calver-trained Madraco won by four lengths. He was returned at 50/1, making him one of three horses since the Second World War to have triumphed at such long odds. The other two were Ahonoora (1978) and Ashurst Wonder (1954).

Another top filly on the roll of honour is Lochsong, who in 1992 defeated 29 rivals at Goodwood and went on to land an unprecedented sprint handicap treble that also included the Portland Handicap at Doncaster and Ayr Gold Cup. She progressed to win the Group One Nunthorpe Stakes at York and was twice victorious in Longchamp’s Prix de l’Abbaye as well as coming back to Goodwood and winning two King George Stakes.

Coastal Bluff, the 1996 Stewards’ Cup scorer, was a second winner in three years for Yorkshire-based trainer David Barron and jockey Jimmy Fortune, following For The Present’s success two years earlier. Coastal Bluff, like Lochsong, went on to win the Ayr Gold Cup and dead-heated

for first place in the following year’s Nunthorpe Stakes.

Michael Tabor netted over £200,000 in winning bets when Danetime carried his colours and money to victory as the 5-1 favourite in 1997. The victory, a first Stewards’ Cup triumph for Pat Eddery, was described by trainer Neville Callaghan as the highlight of his career.

Danetime carried a huge weight of public money to victory but his odds of 5-1 were not as low as the 4-1 about the 2003 winner Patavellian. Roger Charlton’s charge was the shortest-priced winning favourite in the race’s history and proved his class with success in the Group One Prix de l’Abbaye on his next start.

The 1998 Stewards’ Cup saw the launch of the tote trifecta bet. The 1998 and 1999 runnings showed that horses can win from either side of the course, with Superior Premium successful on the far side and Harmonic Way racing down the stands’ side to victory.

Trainers and owners have been able to choose their horse’s stall position for the race since 1999 in a draw ceremony conducted two days beforehand at the racecourse.

Yorkshire trainer, Tim Easterby, was successful in 2001 with Guinea Hunter, who got the better of Halmahera by a neck

in a thrilling finish. The connections of Guinea Hunter had the agony of a stewards’ enquiry to endure but the placings remained unaltered.

Zidane may have been drawn in the stall no-one wanted but that did not stop James Fanshawe’s charge lifting the 2007 Stewards’ Cup by a short-head in a last-gasp swoop. The five-year-old had been the long-time antepost favourite until the failure of connections to attend Thursday’s draw saw him allotted the last stall left, number 11, and a drift in the market ensued. Nevertheless, he was sent off the 6/1 favourite and punters were rewarded as Jamie Spencer brought Zidane with a storming late charge to deny the previous year’s winner Borderlescott in the final stride.

Borderlescott was a popular winner in 2006 for Yorkshire trainer Robin Bastiman. The tough gelding was agonisingly pipped on the line by Zidane as he went for the Stewards’ Cup double 12 months later and gallantly carried top-weight to finish a close third behind 40/1 shot Conquest in 2008. Borderlescott gained handsome compensation when twice winning the Group One Nunthorpe Stakes (2008 & 2009) at York and taking the 2010 King George Stakes at Goodwood. He had run at Glorious Goodwood a total of eight times.

William Haggas saddled the first two home in the 2008 Stewards’ Cup, when 40/1 chance Conquest and Dane O’Neill just held off the fast-finishing 12/1 shot King’s Apostle by a head. The previous trainer to have the one-two in the famous six-furlong handicap was Richard Hannon, as Knight Of Mercy and Bocas Rose were separated by a neck in 1990.

Newmarket-based Haggas also sent out 2013 winner Rex Imperator, who quickened smartly for a two and a quarter length triumph under Neil Callan.

Since starting stalls were first used in 1966, the luckiest draw has been stall 11 with five winners coming from that position. Four winners have been drawn in 19. No winner has come from stalls 2, 3, 7, 13, 17, 23 and 24. The numbering of stalls was changed in 2011 for right-handed courses like Goodwood and means it is the opposite of before. Low numbers used to be on the right looking from the stands and now are on the left.

Roger Charlton, Dandy Nicholls and Fred Armstrong are the joint most successful post-war trainers. Charlton saddled his third winner in 2009 when Genki followed on from Patavellian (2003) and Harmonic Way (1999).

Since 1946, the winning margin has been a nose once, a short-head on 10 occasions, a head eight times and a neck 13 times. Before 2011, King’s Signet (1993) and Petong (1984) had carried the highest weight to victory - 9st 10lb. That all changed in 2011 when the Mick Easterby-trained Hoof It defied top-weight of 10st. The 13-2 joint-favourite was drawn in berth 18 of the 27 runners and was brilliantly ridden by Kieren Fallon to storm down the far rail for an impressive two and a half-length success.

Yorkshire-based Easterby, along with fellow part-owners, golfer Lee Westwood and agent Chubby Chandler, were narrowly denied Group One glory later in September, 2011, when Hoof It went down by a nose and a head in the Sprint Cup at Haydock Park.

At the other end of the weight scale, the three-year-old Psalmsinger had a

featherweight 5st 4lb when triumphant in the 1845 Stewards’ Cup. The minimum weight is now 7st 12lb.

In 2012, the prize went to Scotland with the Jim Goldie-trained Hawkeyethenoo taking the spoils in the final stride under former jump jockey Graham Lee. The winning distance of a nose is the shortest in the race’s history. The 2013 running

The Stewards’ Cup has a maximum limit of 28 runners these days, but that has not always been the case and in 1861 Croagh Patrick defeated 44 rivals to take the famous sprint. Only 12 lined up in 1842 when Lady Adela gained the spoils – the smallest field in the race’s history.

Epirus was a six-year-old when winning in 1840 and 13 other winners have been that age. Four year-olds have been most successful with 70 wins, while three-year-olds have taken the prize on 51 occasions and five-year-olds 28 times. The John White-trained eight-year-old Shikari’s Son became the oldest winner in 1995, taking the distinction from Epaulet, who was seven when triumphant in 1958.

Dermot Weld saddled Red Alert to success in 1974, the only Irish-trained winner of the Stewards’ Cup since 1946, while just 13 of the 69 favourites in that time have succeeded.

The boosted £75,000 consolation race, the Qatar Stewards’ Sprint, for horses who fail to get in the Qatar Stewards’ Cup, moved from the Friday of Glorious Goodwood to become the first race on the Saturday in 2011.

The prize money for the Qatar Stewards Cup has also shot up, being worth £250,000 in 2015 as against £100,000 last year.

The information given below for the period 1966 to 2010 is now of historical interest since the stall numbering at Goodwood from 2011 is opposite to how it used to be after a change by the British Horseracing Authority to bring the United Kingdom into

line with most other racing jurisdictions.The low numbers at Goodwood, a right-handed course, are now on the left looking from the stands and the high numbers on the right rather than the other way around.

65 | AUGUST BANK HOLIDAY WEEKEND

With a relaxed atmosphere and hopefully plenty of summer sunshine, the 1950s-themed August Bank Holiday Weekend

provides the perfect opportunity to enjoy the charms of racing high on the Sussex Downs, rekindling nostalgic summers of yesteryear.

Starting with a relaxed evening fixture on Friday, August 28, which has a spectacular firework display after racing, the action continues with high-class Group race action on Saturday, August 29 and a family day on Sunday, August 30 with so much on offer, including pony racing and lots of entertainment that will appeal to all ages.

There’s an old-fashioned funfair with a Helter-Skelter, Big Wheel, Chair o’ Planes, Gallopers and Swing Boats, as well as a replica beach front complete with beach huts and sandcastles.

Children will also love getting their face painted, getting lost in the windbreak maze and being entertained and educated at the ‘Kids Love The Races’ roadshow.

The soundtrack to August Bank Holiday will be provided by a host of musical acts, including the popular ‘Rockin’ the Joint’ Rock n’ Roll Band, who will be performing a full set in the Gordon Enclosure following the last race each day.

There will be jazz in the Gordon Enclosure during the afternoon, and a string quartet will be playing in the Richmond Enclosure, with a repertoire that includes modern classics from Queen, Madness, Coldplay Elvis and Snow Patrol.

All rides and entertainment are free, as are accompanied children aged under 18.

Saturday’s highlight is the £100,000 Group Two Doom Bar Celebration Mile, which was first run in 1967 and boasts Brigadier Gerard, Kris, Known Fact, Selkirk, Mark Of Esteem and Raven’s Pass on its roll of honour.

The 2012 Celebration Mile saw a deserved success for the tough campaigner Premio Loco, who got the better of Thistle Bird and Aljamaaheer in a thrilling finish in with less than half a length covering the first three. Premio Loco had already shown high-class form at Goodwood, having finished third to Canford Cliffs in the 2010 Qatar Sussex Stakes.

There are stars of the future on show in the Prestige Stakes, a seven-furlong Group Three contest for two-year-old fillies, with a £100,000 handicap over the same distance and the £40,000 Listed March Stakes over a mile and three quarters.

Sunday’s highlight is the £60,000 Group Three Doom Bar Supreme Stakes over seven furlongs. John Gosden is the trainers to follow, having sent out five winners of the race.

AUGUST BANK HOLIDAY WEEKENDThe August Bank Holiday Weekend over three days at Goodwood offers high-class racing and lots of fun.

66 | AUGUST BANK HOLIDAY WEEKEND

PRESTIGE STAKES (GROUP THREE)

£40,000, SATURDAY, AUGUST 29, 2015

TWO-YEAR-OLD FILLIES ONLY. SEVEN FURLONGS. FIRST RUN 1974

Known as the Prestige Stakes since 1989, the race for two-year-old fillies

began life as the Globtik Stakes in 1974 when the future Cheshire and Lancashire Oaks winner One Over Parr landed the odds under Pat Eddery.

The 1980 winner, Fairy Footsteps, went on to Classic glory in the following spring’s 1,000 Guineas at Newmarket.

Bella Colora, successful in 1984, finished third to Oh So Sharp in one of the greatest 1,000 Guineas ever staged and returned to Goodwood to win the Lupe Stakes before taking the Group One Prix de l’Opera at Longchamp. Bella Colora proved to be a fine broodmare, the best of her offspring being the top-class Stagecraft.

Another Prestige Stakes (1989) and Lupe Stakes winner, Moon Cactus, was the dam of Epsom Oaks heroine Moonshell and fellow Group One victor Doyen.

Pure Grain upheld the quality of the Goodwood race in 1994 as she subsequently won the Irish and Yorkshire Oaks.

The 2001 winner, Gossamer, added Ascot’s Group One Fillies’ Mile to her tally, with the same double also completed by Nannina in 2005. Gossamer went on to Classic success in the Irish 1,000 Guineas, while Nannina prevailed in the Group One Coronation Stakes at Royal Ascot.

Fantasia carried off the spoils in 2008 and was then runner-up to Rainbow View in the Fillies’ Mile at Ascot before coming home third in the Poule d’Essai des Pouliches, the French 1,000 Guineas the following year.

Regal Realm prevailed in an extraordinary climax to the 2011 renewal as the Jeremy Noseda-trained filly beat Rakasa by a short-head, with Questing and Nayarra a pair of heads further back. Nayarra subsequently captured a Group One in Italy, while Questing was crowned America’s champion three-year-old filly following a pair of impressive Grade One victories on dirt.

Sky Lantern was beaten half a length into second by Ollie Olga in the 2012 renewal and went on to land the following year’s QIPCO 1,000 Guineas at Newmarket and Coronation Stakes at Royal Ascot.

The 2013 Prestige Stakes went the way of the Ed Dunlop-trained Amazing Maria, who made all under Gerald Mosse to score unchallenged by two and a half lengths, having been the very easy winner of the EBF British Stallion Studs New Ham Fillies’ Maiden at Glorious Goodwood earlier the same month.

Ollie Olga’s trainer Mick Channon was on the scoresheet again in 2014 with decisive winner Malabar, who went on to finish fourth in the first fillies’ Classic of 2015, the QIPCO 1,000 Guineas.

67 | AUGUST BANK HOLIDAY WEEKEND

This valuable seven-furlong handicap was introduced in 2011 at Goodwood’s

August Bank Holiday Weekend.

Eton Rifles, who subsequently proved himself as a talented sprinter with Listed wins in Britain, Ireland and France, won the inaugural running by a length under Kieren Fallon.

The George Margarson-trained Imperial Guest went down by a nose to Hawkeyethenoo in the Stewards’ Cup at Glorious Goodwood but gained compensation with a cosy half-length success in 2012.

Magic City, part-owned by former Manchester United manager Sir Alex

Ferguson, completed a three-timer at Goodwood in 2013 with a comfortable length success over Intransigent.

The Richard Hannon-trained gelding tried for back-to-back wins in 2014 and finished third to Almargo who won for trainer Mark Johnston and jockey Royston Ffrench by making all to score by two lengths.

68 | AUGUST BANK HOLIDAY WEEKEND

Introduced two years after Goodwood’s August meeting started, the Celebration

Mile, or Wills Mile, to give the race its original appellation, was the brainchild of John Hughes and Ralph Hubbard.

It was conceived as a natural follow-up to the Qatar Sussex Stakes and, sure enough, the inaugural winner in 1967 St Chad gained revenge over Reform, to whom he had finished fourth in the Qatar Goodwood Festival showpiece.

A host of champions and top-class milers have taken this prize down the years, Habitat (1969), Humble Duty (1970) and the peerless Brigadier Gerard (1971) triumphed in a golden three-year period, while Kris (1979), Known Fact (1980), Milligram (1987), Selkirk (1992), Mark Of Esteem (1996) and Raven’s Pass (2008) were all outstanding winners.

Raven’s Pass had failed by only a head to overhaul Henrythenavigator in the QIPCO Sussex Stakes before returning to Goodwood for a commanding victory in the Celebration Mile, a race that marked the beginning of a brilliant sequence.

On his next start, Raven’s Pass turned the tables on Henrythenavigator in the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes at Ascot and again saw off his old foe, as well as US Horse of the Year, Curlin, to land a sensational triumph in the Breeders’ Cup Classic.

Chic is the only winner to have captured the race twice, in 2004 and 2005, for Sir Michael

Stoute and the trainer enjoyed a remarkable eighth victory in the Celebration Mile thanks to Zacinto’s promotion in 2009 after the first past the post Delegator was subsequently disqualified because of a prohibited substance.

Poet’s Voice gave Godolphin trainer Saeed bin Suroor a fourth win in 2010, following on from Mark Of Esteem (1996), Cape Cross (1999) and Caradak (2006). The colt won the Group One Queen Elizabeth II Stakes at Ascot on his next start.

Dubawi Gold gained a deserved success in 2011, having finished second to Frankel in the 2,000 Guineas and filled the same position in the Irish 2,000 Guineas earlier in the season, while Premio Loco became the oldest winner of the race in 2012 at the age of eight.

The 2013 renewal saw an impressive performance from the Luca Cumani-trained Afsare, who justified favouritism with a facile two-length success.

Trainer Mark Johnston registered his first victory in 2014 with Bow Creek, who subsequently captured the Group Two Boomerang Mile on the inaugural Irish Champions Weekend at Leopardstown.

The age breakdown of the winners is 3yo - 32; 4yo - 7; 5yo - 5; 6yo - 2, 8yo – 1, while 19 out of 47 market leaders have triumphed.

70 | AUGUST BANK HOLIDAY WEEKEND

The expansion of the Goodwood programme in 1965 introduced an

August meeting that included a new race, the March Stakes. The race name derives from the Earldom of March, a title inherited by the eldest sons of the Dukes of Richmond.

Ribofilio, the champion two-year-old of 1968, secured the 1969 March Stakes before finishing second in the St Leger, the final British Classic, of that year.

Two colts, Commanche Run (1984) and Michelozzo (1989), have added the St Leger to a March Stakes victory, while the great stayer Le Moss was triumphant in the 1978 renewal of the Goodwood contest. Le Moss won the Gold Cup at Ascot both in 1979 and 1980.

The race, previously just for three-year-olds, was opened to older horses for the first time in 1999 and the remarkable Yavana’s Pace, then seven, vanquished the younger generation.

Mourilyan won well in 2009 for the father and son combination of Gary and Ryan Moore and on his next start for a new trainer, South African-based Herman Brown, finished third in Australia’s Melbourne Cup.

Newmarket handler Luca Cumani has registered five victories, most recently with Quest For Peace in 2012. The colt headed to Australia afterwards, coming home fifth in the Caulfield Cup and 10th in the Melbourne Cup.

Harris Tweed followed up his impressive Glorious Goodwood success with a head victory over Mount Athos in 2013. The winner rounded off his campaign with a brave second in the QIPCO British Champions Long Distance Cup, while the runner-up ran a fine race in the Melbourne Cup, beaten two and a quarter lengths into third.

Forever Now, trained by John Gosden made most of the running and held on by a short-head in a thrilling 2014 renewal and then finished sixth in the St Leger.

The 49 runnings have seen 22 favourites succeed, while the longest-priced victor was 9-1 chance Tungsten Strike in 2007.

71 | AUGUST BANK HOLIDAY WEEKEND

Belmont Bay headed to Goodwood for the inaugural running of the Supreme

Stakes, then a Listed contest known as the Harroways Stakes, in 1981, having already captured the Lockinge Stakes at Newbury and the Queen Anne Stakes at Royal Ascot that season and the 10-11 favourite obliged under Lester Piggott.

Another classy victor was Efisio, who took the 1985 renewal en route to success in the Group Two Challenge Stakes at Newmarket. John Dunlop’s charge won an Italian Group One the next season and subsequently proved an influential sire.

The race became known as the Supreme Stakes in 1987 when it was upgraded to Group Three status and the Barry Hills-trained Asteroid Field prevailed from Jersey Stakes winner Midyan.

Several Group One winners have tasted success in the Supreme Stakes, including Soviet Line (1994), who twice captured the Lockinge Stakes. Tagula won the Prix Morny as a two-year-old before taking the 1996 renewal, while subsequent Prix de la Foret winner Mount Abu triumphed in 2000.

With five victories, John Gosden is the most successful trainer in the race and enjoyed back-to-back wins in 1997 and 1998 with Decorated Hero.

Godolphin’s Firebreak carried off the prize in 2002 and his trainer, Saeed bin Suroor, achieved a second victory in 2013 with Lockwood.

Richard Hannon snr, successful with Ordnance Row in 2009, also won the 2011

running with Libranno, who had captured the Qatar Richmond Stakes at Glorious Goodwood a year earlier, and struck again in 2012 with subsequent Group Two winner Producer.

Irish raider Ansgar was the 14/1 outsider of the field when scoring for trainer Sabrina Harty in 2014, but proved it was no flash in the pan when making all in the Group Two Park Stakes at Doncaster the following month.

The age split of winners has been 3yo - 14; 4yo - 8; 5yo – 6; 6yo – 4; while 14 of the 32 winners have started favourite.

73 | AUTUMN RACING

Goodwood plays host to a seven-race programme on Tuesday, September1,

the highlights of which are the £25,000 Peter Willett Conditions Race, a seven-furlong contest for two-year-olds, and the £20,000 Royal Sussex Regiment Handicap over two miles.

The £40,000 Listed R H Hall Foundation Stakes, for three-year-olds and older horses over nearly 10 furlongs, is the feature of a seven-race programme on Wednesday, September 23, with other competitive action provided by the £20,000 Santa Maria Foodservice Handicap over a mile and a half.

Goodwood’s season draws to a close on Sunday, October 11, when one of the most unusual races in the Flat racing calendar is staged. First run in 1995 and open to just currently licensed Jump jockeys, the two-mile handicap has been won by famous riders such as Paul Carberry, Robert Thornton, Richard Johnson, Timmy Murphy and Paddy Brennan.

The Foundation Stakes has been a stepping-stone for some high-class

performers.

Perpendicular, trained by Sir Michael Stoute, turned over hot favourite Opera House in 1991. The winner won the following season’s Prince of Wales’s Stakes at Royal Ascot, while the runner-up was the champion older horse in 1993, thanks to Group One victories in the Coronation Cup, Eclipse Stakes and King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes.

Diamond White’s 1999 success preceded a triumph in the Group Two Prix de l’Opera, while Albarahin (2000) subsequently scored in the 2001 Group Two Prix Dollar.

Twice Over won the 2009 renewal of the Foundation Stakes impressively and went on to record Group One victories in the Champion Stakes (2009 & 2010) at Newmarket, the Eclipse Stakes (2010) and Juddmonte International (2011).

Saeed bin Suroor is the most successful trainer in the Foundation Stakes with

six successes and his most recent winner Hunter’s Light (2011) subsequently posted a pair of Group One victories in Italy and Dubai.

The Jeremy Nosdea-trained Grandeur, a dual Grade Two winner in America, joined Danish Rhapsody (1997 & 1998) as the only other dual winner of Foundation Stakes when posting a comfortable victory in 2014.

In the 28 runnings, 11 favourites have succeeded.

The alphabetical directory in this section gives the Goodwood records of all currently

licensed trainers who have trained at least one winner at Goodwood.

The figure given in each entry for the number of winners trained at Goodwood does not include those ‘Goodwood’ races transferred to

other courses during the rebuilding of the main grandstand in 1979 and 1980.

Where ‘big race wins’ are listed, the figure in brackets refers to the number of times the trainer has won that race. The ‘big races’ at the 1979 and 1980 transferred meetings are included.

95 KEY DATES

1697The first Duke of Richmond purchased a hunting lodge in Sussex at Goodwood so as to hunt with the nearby Charlton Hunt, the first pack of foxhounds formed in England.

1758The second Duke built the stables, in which the runners are still accommodated today, for his hunters. The stables, to be seen on the south side of Goodwood House, were designed by Sir William Chambers, the greatest architect of the time.

1801Goodwood first staged racing with a two-day meeting organised by the third Duke of Richmond.

1802A three-day meeting was held under Jockey Club rules in April, incorporating two City of Chichester Plates, the first over two miles and the second over three miles.

Most events were still run in heats in 1802. The first horse to win two heats was the outright winner, while those beaten could be withdrawn at any stage. The opening race on the first day of the inaugural meeting, Wednesday, April 28, 1802, was the Hunting Club Subscription which cost 20 guineas to enter and was run in two-mile heats.

There were four runners. Pantagruel, carrying 11st 13lb, beat Cornwallis (12st 7lb) in the first heat, finished third to Cornwallis in the second, and then beat Cornwallis again in the third heat, to win the stakes.

Thus Pantagruel and Cornwallis both covered six miles, under jumping weights, before the issue was resolved. On the third and final day of the meeting, the City of Chichester Stakes, of £50 each, was run in three-mile heats. Fortunately for the five-year- old Mystery, owned by Mr Ladbroke the banker, he won in straight heats, so he too had to cover only six miles, whereas it could have been nine miles or even further.

Running in heats was an arduous task by today’s standards, notwithstanding the fact that racing started in the morning, so that horses were afforded more respite than would have been the case if everything had had to be decided during the afternoon.

1812The first running of the Goodwood Cup took place in May.

1814Goodwood’s only race meeting was moved to July and the Festival, now known as the Qatar Goodwood Festival, has remained there ever since. It always starts in July but often slips into August.

1824Horses taking part in the Cocked Hat Stakes had to be ridden by gentlemen wearing cocked hats! The race was won by a chestnut mare called Olive, ridden by the redoubtable Lord George Bentinck, who was to become known as the “Dictator of the Turf”.

1830A new grandstand was built by the fifth Duke of Richmond. William IV, often referred to

as “the Sailor King”, won the Goodwood Cup with Fleur De Lis. The horse had captured the 1829 renewal for his late brother King George VI.

1831Priam, owned by the Earl of Chesterfield, became the first Derby winner to seal victory in the Goodwood Cup, denying Fleur De Lis a hat-trick. The race was worth £300, of which £100 was given by the City of Chichester.

Priam was a horse of exquisite quality. When in extreme old age, and long-retired, the Goodwood trainer John Kent wrote: “In my opinion, and I am never tired of repeating it, Priam was the best and most perfectly-shaped racehorse I ever saw.” Priam gained a second Goodwood Cup success in 1832.

1833The Molecomb Stakes was run for the first time.

1840A field of 22 went to post for the first running of the Stewards’ Cup. The winner was the John Bowes-owned six-year-old Epirus, trained by the great John Scott at Malton in North Yorkshire.

The Dukes of Richmond are also Dukes of Aubigny in France so it was fitting that the Goodwood Cup of 1840 went to the French-trained Beggarman, owned by the heir to the French throne, the Duc d’Orleans.

1841The Sussex Stakes was first run as a race for two-year-olds. It remained in that guise for 37 years, during which time it was

uncontested on 25 occasions, with 14 walkovers.

1854Virago won the Goodwood Cup by 15 lengths and, two days later, the three-year-old filly completed a rare double when landing the Nassau Stakes. She had already won the 1,000 Guineas, after taking the City & Suburban and Great Metropolitan handicaps on the same day at Epsom’s Spring Meeting and two valuable races on consecutive days at York.

Virago was trained by John Barham Day in the Michel Grove stable at Findon, a few miles across the Sussex Downs from Goodwood, and ran in the colours of ‘Mr Howard’, the nom de course of the moneylender Henry Padwick.

1861Forty five horses had been due to face the starter in the Stewards’ Cup of 1861, but many of them were unable to line up due to a severe lack of jockeys.

Plenty of those that came under orders were partnered by incompetent pilots, but out of the chaos emerged the winner, Croagh Patrick, who was the subject of a huge gamble.

1865Gladiateur, the first French-bred horse to win the Derby, was also seen to advantage at Goodwood on his next start, winning the Drawing Room Stakes by 40 lengths.

1866Harry Custance, a leading jockey, had an unpleasant experience before the running of the Chesterfield Cup. Fearing

that he would have trouble with the foul-tempered Broomielaw, he obtained permission for the colt to be led, rather than cantered, to the post, while he followed on foot.

When Custance removed his coat, Broomielaw came for him open-mouthed, roaring like a bull. While the lad used the coat as a blindfold, Custance jumped in the saddle, from which the horse tried to dislodge him by bucking, kicking and rearing, eventually going down on his knees to tear the turf with his teeth.

Having delayed the start for half an hour, Broomielaw eventually jumped off, with a long tom cracked beneath his hocks, and won by three parts of a length from Ostreger. He never ran again.

1873Two of the three runners in the Goodwood Cup of 1873 were the Derby winners Favonius and Cremorne. Both were beaten by outsider Flageolet, a three-year-old who stormed home 30 lengths clear of Favonius.

1874Goodwood has always been a happy hunting ground for the top jockeys, but 17-year-old Fred Archer found himself in trouble in 1874, when he rode Modena at 7st 1lb in the Stewards’ Cup.

In his eagerness to reach the start early and secure the best position, with there being no draw for races in those days, he took the mare through the crowd. After Modena had won, Archer was reprimanded by the stewards for going down before the order to clear the course had been given.

He won the race again on Trappist the following year, and might have won for a third time on Hackthorpe in 1880, instead of being beaten a head, had he

not put up a pound overweight at 8st 8lb.

1877The first staging of the Richmond Stakes proved an instant success as a Classic trial with the winner Janette going on to win the Oaks and St Leger the following year. Matthew Dawson trained Janette and also the 1878 winner Wheel of Fortune.

During the first decade of the Richmond Stakes, the contest was dominated by Fred Archer. Having won the inaugural race on Jannette, the jockey was successful again in each of the next four seasons and for a sixth time on Rosy Morn in 1884.

The other two Goodwood races in which he had outstanding records were the Molecomb Stakes, with six winners between 1877 and 1886, and the Nassau Stakes, which he won five times between 1875 and 1885.

1878The Sussex Stakes became a mile race for three-year-olds.

The great Hungarian filly Kincsem, born in 1874, made her only appearance in England a memorable one with victory in the Goodwood Cup. Kincsem retired unbeaten after 54 races spanning five countries. She was very attached to her favourite cat, so much so that she would not move or travel without the animal.

1880Bend Or was the first of five Derby winners to have won the Richmond Stakes at Goodwood the year before. The others were the Prince Of Wales’s Persimmon (1896), Pommern (1915), Manna (1925) and Mahmoud (1936).

1881Among the many Derby winners successful at Goodwood as two-year-olds was Iroquois, who became the first American-bred

horse to triumph in the premier Classic. He started 4/6 favourite for the Lavant Stakes the year before at Goodwood and gave Isola Madre 8lb and a half-length beating.

1884The Duke of Portland’s St Simon, arguably the greatest racehorse of the 19th century, won the Goodwood Cup of 1884 as a three-year-old, beating the 1883 St Leger winner Ossian by 20 lengths.

This brilliant colt was also twice successful at Goodwood as a two-year-old, being ridden by Fred Archer on both occasions. He was trained at Newmarket by the great Matthew Dawson. An unqualified success as a stallion, St Simon was champion sire nine times.

1886Fred Archer enjoyed at least 99 successes at Goodwood. It is impossible to be precise, as the name of the jockey who walked over on a horse was not recorded until 1880. The first winner that he rode at the course was East Acton in 1873 and the last was Cavalier in the Charlton Welter Handicap, four months before he took his own life at the age of 29 in 1886.

1887Morny Cannon, then 14 and weighing in at 6st 3lb, won the Stewards’ Cup aboard Upset. Runner-up was Tib, ridden by his brother Tom Cannon Jnr and trained by his father Tom Cannon Snr. Tib avenged the defeat in 1888.

Lester Piggott is Tom Cannon Snr’s great-grandson. Morny and Tom Cannon Jnr were his great uncles, with their sister Margaret being the wife of the great jockey’s grandfather Ernie Piggott.

1888Three fillies have completed the Sussex Stakes/Nassau

Stakes double in the same year: Zanzibar in 1888, Waldorf Astor’s celebrated Winkipop in 1910, and 1,000 Guineas third Olein in 1939.

1891Nineteen-year-old Otto Madden was following in something of a family tradition when winning the Stewards’ Cup on Unicorn in 1891. His father had also obtained an important success at the course, having won the Goodwood Cup on Kincsem 13 years earlier.

1892Marvel, trained by Richard Marsh for the eighth Duke of Devonshire, won the Stewards’ Cup in 1890 and 1892. So badly deformed was Marvel as a foal, that he was nearly shot.

1895Persimmon, a son of the great St Simon, won the 1895 Richmond Stakes for the Prince of Wales, later King Edward VII. Persimmon was one of five winners of the Richmond Stakes to go on and triumph in the Derby.

1900American jockeys dominated the Festival meeting in 1900. Little Johnny Reiff, known as ‘Knickerbocker’ Reiff, rode the winner in eight races. These included the Stewards’ Cup on Royal Flush and the Rous Memorial Stakes on Volodyovski, who was successful in the Derby the following year.

In addition, elder brother Lester Reiff won the Sussex Stakes on The Raft and the Richmond Stakes on Handicapper.

Lester Reiff finished the season as champion jockey, but was warned off for stopping a horse at Manchester in 1901, when John Reiff discreetly retired to France.

1902The Gordon Stakes was first run.

1903The Goodwood Golf Club was inaugurated.

1904A new two-tiered open grandstand replaced the old one.

1908No horse better deserved to win the Stewards’ Cup, but was never rewarded by success than Solly Joel’s Poor Boy, who ran in the race in each of the seven seasons prior to the outbreak of the First World War. Following being beaten a neck when three in 1908, he went down by a neck again in 1910 and finished runner-up for a third and fourth time in 1912 and 1913.

In addition, he was unplaced in 1909, 1911 and 1914.

1910The Felix Leach-trained Magic caused the biggest upset in Goodwood Cup history when defeating the previous year’s St Leger winner Bayardo, who was sent off at 1-20 among the three runners.

1911The five-furlong King George Stakes was first run.

1914The previous year’s winner, Lord Annandale, dead-heated for first and thus became the first horse to win the Stewards’ Cup in consecutive years.

1921Tetratema was the first of six dual winners of the King George Stakes. The others to achieve this feat were Stingo (1930 & 1931), Veuve Clicquot (1936 & 1937), Abernant (1949 & 1950), Right Boy (1958 & 1959) and Lochsong (1993 & 1994).

1930Brown Jack, the best-loved horse to race between the world wars, was ridden by Steve Donoghue to obtain one of the most important successes of his long career in the Goodwood Cup of 1930.

In addition, the great stayer won the Queen Alexandra Stakes at Ascot six times, the Ascot Stakes, the Chester Cup, the Ebor Handicap at York and the second running of Cheltenham’s Champion Hurdle.

Brown Jack was owned by Sir Harold Wernher, whose grandson Nicky Phillips won the Nassau Stakes with Roussalka in 1975 and 1976.

1939Trainer Basil Jarvis and jockey Tommy Lowrey brought off a remarkable treble for Lord Glanely, the shipping magnate, in 1939. They won the Halnaker Stakes, the last race on Tuesday, with Ashford Bend, the Sussex Stakes, the first on Wednesday, with Olein, and then the next race on the card, the Lavant Stakes, with British Empire.

At that last meeting at Goodwood before the war, they also won the Goodwood Cup with Dubonnet and brought out Olein again to score in the Nassau Stakes.

1939-1945Goodwood was closed for the duration of the Second World War. The army was billeted in the stands and other buildings, being joined just prior to D-Day by the RAF in which the Duke Of Richmond was serving. Goodwood House became a hospital.

The course may not have been in use, but the name was not forgotten. The action, with which the final phase of the war in north-west Europe began, was codenamed ‘Operation Goodwood’.

1946Gordon Richards, the famous jockey who was knighted in 1953, made the Sussex Stakes almost his own from 1946 through to 1952, winning the top mile contest five times in seven runnings.

Radiotherapy was his successful Mount in 1946. He captured the race eight times in all. His tally at Glorious Goodwood 1946 was nine.

From 1946 to 1948, an August meeting was staged in addition to Glorious Goodwood to make up for no racing having taken place at Goodwood during World War Two.

1947The first BBC radio broadcast of horseracing happened at Goodwood on July 30 on the Light programme, with commentary by Frank More O’Ferrall.

Gordon Richards started a remarkable string of successes in the King George Stakes, winning the sprint every year from 1947 to 1952, as well as on Myrobella in 1933 and Neuvy in 1938. He set a new record during Glorious Goodwood, achieving 10 victories, which still stands today. The peerless rider equalled his own record in 1949.

1948Goodwood’s motor circuit was first used for racing.

The former George Todd Apprentice Handicap commemorated the trainer who won many of the most important events at Goodwood while he had the famous Manton stable, including the Stewards’ Cup with Dramatic in 1948, the Sussex Stakes with Roan Rocket in 1964 and the Goodwood Stakes with French Design in both 1952 and 1955. George Todd died in 1974, a few months after his retirement.

1949Gordon Richards rode 10 winners at Glorious Goodwood that year, equalling the record he first set in 1947. His tally at the then four-day meeting was 61 successes between 1946 and 1953.

The introduction of the photo-finish camera to British racing in 1947 did not produce the desired infallible verdicts immediately and some of the most serious of its teething problems centred upon a race at Goodwood.

After Lord Astor’s popular old horse High Stakes, ridden by Richards, and the French-trained Hornet III, the mount of Rae Johnstone, had fought out a desperate finish to the Bentinck Stakes, the judge, Malcolm Hancock, was handed a distorted print, in which the head of one horse appeared transposed on to the neck of the other.

By way of interpretation of this optical illusion, Hancock gave High Stakes the win by a short head. Having examined the photograph further, the local stewards were convinced the judge was in error and the Jockey Club stewards reached the same conclusion, but it was too late under the rules then prevailing to alter the result.

The Stewards’ Cup was won in 1949 by The Bite, ridden by Bert Packham, by a short-head from Spartan Scarifice, the mount of Michael Beary. The Bite was trained by Jimmy Wood at Downs House Stable, subsequently the quarters of Philip Mitchell, at Epsom.

Wood was the son of the Victorian jockey Charlie Wood, who became champion on the death of Fred Archer. Wood senior won the Stewards’ Cup twice, on Peter in 1879 and Hornpipe in 1883.

98 KEY DATES

1950Lester Piggott rode the first of 197 Goodwood winners aboard Vidi Vici in a handicap on July 25.

1952Goodwood became the first British course to provide racegoers with live commentaries over loudspeakers in 1952. It had long been the ambition of that progressive clerk of the course Ralph Hubbard to have the public address system used for that purpose.

The first commentary was given by Bob Haynes. The Ralph Hubbard Memorial Nursery, run for a long time, was a reminder of the man who did so much to raise the standard of racing and improve the facilities for the public at Goodwood.

Gordon Richards was the leading jockey at Glorious Goodwood with seven successes. This was the seventh successive year that he topped the jockeys’ table at the meeting.

1953A record crowd of 55,000 watched the first day of the Glorious Goodwood. Manny Mercer ended the four-day meetings as top jockey after amassing six victories, with Gordon Richards on four wins.

1954The Queen owned the winner of the Sussex Stakes, Landau, who was ridden by Willie Snaith following an accident to Gordon Richards which ended the illustrious jockey’s career 18 days earlier. He retired from riding after a British record of 4,870 winners and achieved 26 champion jockey titles.

1956The first televised coverage by the BBC occurred on July 31, with three races shown live. Race commentary came from Peter O’Sullevan, with

observations from the paddock by Clive Graham.

1957Lester Piggott’s big-race record at Goodwood was, like almost everywhere else, second to none. After his first major win at Goodwood on Abelia in the 1957 Molecomb Stakes, Piggott dominated the Festival meeting.

He won the Gordon Stakes four times, the Goodwood Cup and Nassau Stakes five times each, the Sussex and Richmond Stakes six times each, the Molecomb Stakes eight times and the King George Stakes on no less than nine occasions. He rode his first Goodwood winner on July 25, 1950, on the handicapper Vidi Vici and in 1974 he partnered nine winners at the Festival Meeting. In total, he rode 197 winners at Goodwood.

The leading rider at Glorious Goodwood 1957 was Scobie Breasley with eight successes.

1958Largely through his achievements at Goodwood, Predominate became the most popular horse of his day. A lean, lanky chestnut gelding owned by Jim Joel, nephew of Solly Joel, Predominate gained three successive wins in the Goodwood Handicap starting in 1958.

As a nine-year-old in 1961, he became the oldest horse to win the Goodwood Cup (his record was beaten by 10-year-old Persian Punch in 2003) when holding on grimly to resist the challenge of Shatter by a short-head.

Goodwood’s Derby trial at the May meeting, which started in 1968, was named in Predominate’s honour when founded in 1970 until 2006.

1960Derby winner St Paddy, the 8/11 favourite, was beaten half

a length in the Gordon Stakes by Kipling, the mount of Geoff Lewis and trained by Peter Hastings-Bass.

The Sussex Stakes was opened to four-year- olds, in addition to three-year-olds, so as to increase the number of runners in Goodwood’s feature race.

1962The handicap for three-year-olds over a mile, one furlong and 192 yards was introduced at Glorious Goodwood and called the News Of The World Handicap until 1969. It became the Extel Handicap between 1970 and 1989 and is now run as the Jaguar Handicap.

1963Sir Gordon Richards, who dominated Goodwood as a jockey in the post-war years, was leading trainer at Glorious Goodwood with four victories.

1964This was the final year that Goodwood just staged four days of racing annually.

1965 Three new fixtures were introduced at Goodwood (two in August, one in September).

The March Stakes, designed to be a St Leger trial, was founded.

1967Sir Gordon Richards, following eight victories in the Sussex Stakes as a jockey, saddledReform to win the mile race. The Celebration Mile was first run in late August.

Goodwood saw the biggest tote Jackpot pool of £412,687 on July 28, 1967, which paid a dividend of £745 to the 409 winning tickets. The record remained in place until 1991.

1968The May meeting was introduced.

Sky Diver, trained by Peter Payne-Gallwey in Lambourn, was successful in the Stewards’ Cup in both 1967 and 1968, becoming the most recent to triumph in successive years.

1970Glorious Goodwood was extended to five days, with the addition of racing on the Saturday. The Predominate Stakes, a Derby trial, was introduced at the May meeting.

1971Brigadier Gerard, one of the best racehorses ever seen, won the Sussex Stakes easily by five lengths. He was defeated only once in 18 starts.

Lester Piggott gained eight successes at Glorious Goodwood.

1972Scottish Rifle, trained by John Dunlop, won three races during the year at Goodwood, the Predominate Stakes, the Gordon Stakes and the March Stakes.

The Lupe Stakes, an Oaks trial, was introduced at the May meeting.

1973Three jockeys, Geoff Lewis, Tony Murray and Lester Piggott, all gained five successes at Glorious Goodwood.

1974Take a Reef’s half-length success in the 1974 Extel Handicap (now the Jaguar Handicap), under a welter burden of 9st 11lb, entitled the Bruce Hobbs-trained three-year-old to be rated the best of his generation according to the official handicappers, ahead of the Derby winner Snow Knight and the 2,000 Guineas hero Nonoalco.

Lester Piggott partnered nine winners during Glorious Goodwood.

99 KEY DATES

1975The Vintage Stakes was first run. The seven-furlong event for two-year-olds has generated three winners who have gone on to Derby success - Troy, Dr Devious and Sir Percy - and two subsequent 2,000 Guineas scorers - Don’t Forget Me and Mister Baileys – plus many other top horses.

Court Lane proved successful three times during the year at Goodwood, taking the Drayton Handicap, the Waterford Rosebowl Handicap and the John Kent Handicap for trainer Gavin Hunter.

1976The parade ring and weighing room were moved from the western end of the course to behind the main stand and thus became much more accessible.

The Henry Cecil-trained Fool’s Mate enjoyed two Glorious Goodwood successes under Lester Piggott, taking the 12-furlong Trundle Handicap, the first race on the opening day, and the PTS Laurels Handicap over 10 furlongs on the final day.

1978Troy took the Vintage Stakes at Goodwood as a two-year-old and in 1979 went on to capture the Predominate Stakes at Goodwood’s May meeting on his way to winning the 200th Derby at Epsom Downs.

Trainer Luca Cumani burst onto the scene at Goodwood in 1978. Kilroy Hawk’s victory in the Bain Dawes Maiden Stakes on September 16 was his first winner at the course, and was followed by two more winners that afternoon – Lily Marlene in the Pilleygreen Stakes and Music By Hand in the Inkpen Stakes.

All three were ridden by Pat Eddery and were hardly unexpected - they all started heavily-backed, odds-on favourites. It was an early

warning for bookmakers that Cumani was a trainer to be feared at Goodwood.

His consecutive victories in the Extel Handicap (now the Jaguar Handicap) with Free Guest (1984), Fish N’ Chips (1985) and Chinoiserie (1986) left many a bookmaker licking his wounds and the Newmarket-based handler has continued to do well at the course.

1979The Betfred Glorious Stakes, then known as the Alycidon Glorious Stakes, was first run at Glorious Goodwood and the 12-furlong contest was named after the 1949 Goodwood Cup winner.

1980The March Stand was opened by Her Majesty the Queen on the opening day of Glorious Goodwood, Tuesday, July 29, 1980.

Le Moss won his second successive Goodwood Cup.

1981Trainer Henry Cecil celebrated a third Goodwood Cup success in a row when saddling Ardross.

1982The first running of the Goodwood Handicap (which became the Goodwood Stakes) was held at Santa Anita, California, following a partnership between Oak Tree Racing Association and Goodwood Racecourse.

The Oak Tree Stakes was run for the first time at Goodwood at the Festival meeting. The race, open to fillies and mares and run over seven furlongs, had been founded two years beforehand.

1984Chief Singer won an eventful Sussex Stakes in which the half-length second Rousillon was disqualified after his jockey was judged to ridden recklessly by

the stewards. Chief Singer had previously won the St James’s Palace Stakes at Royal Ascot, also over a mile, and the six-furlong July Cup at Newmarket.

1985The first evening fixture was staged in June. Steve Cauthen, an American jockey, enjoyed considerable success at Goodwood, riding 94 winners before his retirement in 1993.

One of the races he did best in was the Vintage Stakes. His first winner was on Faustus in 1985 and two more came on High Estate (1988) and Be My Chief (1989), all trained by Henry Cecil.

1986The great Dancing Brave, trained locally at Pulborough by Guy Harwood, made his only appearance at Goodwood in 1986. Having won the 2,000 Guineas, Eclipse Stakes and King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes in devastating fashion earlier that year as well as finishing an unlucky second in the Derby at Epsom, Dancing Brave used the Group Three Select Stakes as a prep race for the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe.

Five opponents lined up in the Select Stakes but such was Dancing Brave’s superiority, bookmakers did not bet on the race and no starting price was returned. Khalid Abdullah’s colt coasted home by 10 lengths under Greville Starkey.

The following month, Dancing Brave triumphed in one of the strongest-ever renewals of the Group One Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe at Longchamp, France and was the highest-rated horse in what became the World Thoroughbred Racehorse Rankings until Frankel’s exploits in 2012.

1988Jack Berry, a popular character at Goodwood, saddled his

first winner at the track with Almost Blue on July 29, 1988. He retired at the end of the 1999 season, having saddled 18 winners at Goodwood over the course of his career, 10 of which came at Glorious Goodwood, which was very much an annual pilgrimage for the Lancashire-based trainer, who has since become well-known for his charitable fundraising.

His trademark red shirt was last seen in the winner’s enclosure at Goodwood on July 31, 1998, when Eastern Lyric triumphed under a fine ride from Kieren Fallon in the Singleton Handicap.

Mtoto, the brilliant winner of the Coral-Eclipse Stakes at Sandown (1987, 1988) and the King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Ascot (1988), started his 1988 campaign in the most controversial circumstances in Goodwood’s Festival Stakes.

The drama that unfolded was none of his doing, however. Mtoto won the race convincingly in the style expected of an odds-on favourite, but the whole field had been directed on to the wrong course by dolls incorrectly positioned (resulting in the horses covering appreciably less than the 10 furlongs which had been the intended race distance). The stewards were left with no option but to declare the race void and refund all stake money.

1989The current Duke became the 10th Duke of Richmond and the Charlton Stand was opened. Kerita, trained by Fulke Johnson Houghton, won three times on three separate racedays in 1989, all run over seven furlongs.

Starting in the Boxgrove Maiden Fillies’ Stakes in May, she progressed to Listed success in the Oak Tree Stakes at Glorious Goodwood before taking the Group Three Supreme Stakes in October.

100 KEY DATES

1990The Sussex Stand was opened by peerless BBC commentator Peter O’Sullevan (later Sir).

The Glorious Goodwood handicap for three-year-olds over a mile and a half was initiated as the Tote Gold Trophy and for the first three years was for older horses too. The best winner was the 1995 one, Pilsudski, who went on to win six Group/Grade One races.

1991Owner Jeff Smith enjoyed a remarkable run of success at Goodwood from 1991 in which year Flashfoot (twice), Primitive Singer, Northern Habit and Philidor won for him. The following year saw Lochsong’s victory in the Stewards’ Cup and 1993 brought more success from Lochsong in the King George Stakes and Philidor in the Celebration Mile.

Lochsong gained a second win in the King George Stakes in 1994, while Blue Siren landed the Oak Tree Stakes the same year. Grey Shot captured the 1996 Goodwood Cup while earlier on – in 1984 – Smith was victorious in Goodwood’s premier race, the Sussex Stakes, with Chief Singer.

1992Marling defeated Selkirk in an epic finish to the Sussex Stakes. The race was one of the most thrilling ever witnessed at the track, with the brilliant filly defeating the champion miler by a head following a prolonged duel.

Spinning became the first horse to win twice at Glorious Goodwood since Fool’s Mate in 1976. Ian Balding’s charge won Wednesday’s Tote Gold Trophy under Ray Cochrane before following up for the same jockey in Friday’s Glorious Stakes.

1993Pat Eddery was the first jockey to ride 200 winners at Goodwood when Cheveux Mitchell, trained by Mick Channon, won the Kidsons Impey Trophy on May 20. He reached 271 Goodwood winners by the end of the 2003 when he retired from the saddle. He is now a trainer and sent out his first Goodwood winner in 2006 when Casco won a maiden on May 24 of that year.

1994Following his victories in both the Select Stakes and the Festival Stakes in 1994, Alderbrook became the second Goodwood victor within a few years to go on to win the Champion Hurdle (1995) at Cheltenham.

Morley Street won the Gatwick South Terminal Stakes in 1990 prior to his 1991 Champion Hurdle triumph.

1995Goodwood’s first Sunday race fixture was staged on August 27, giving a record total of 19 racedays at the course. The day featured the first race, the Ucello II Trophy Handicap, for jump jockeys at Goodwood and was won by David Bridgwater aboard Mr Browning. It attracted many leading riders including Adrian Maguire, Jamie Osborne, Carl Llewellyn, Norman Williamson, Andrew Thornton and Adam Kondrat from France.

The Bentinck Conservatory was built.

1996Another new fixture was added to Goodwood’s calendar in June, bringing the number of racedays up to 20.

Mark Of Esteem, ridden by Frankie Dettori, put up one of the most impressive performances of the season when winning the Group Two Celebration Mile on August 24.

The 2,000 Guineas winner, who had won a two-year-old maiden at Goodwood’s July Meeting in 1995, swept into the lead in the final furlong with a blistering turn of foot to beat Bishop Of Cashel by three and a half lengths.

Mark Of Esteem later secured the title of champion European miler following an emphatic success in the Group One Queen Elizabeth II Stakes at the Ascot Festival. That victory was the third leg of the charismatic Italian’s record-breaking seven-timer.

Glorious Goodwood in 1996 coincided with the centennial Olympic Games in Atlanta, and Champagne Lanson, then the sponsors of the Vintage Stakes, celebrated the occasion by presenting a magnum of champagne to the owner of every horse that ran at the meeting with the word Olympic in its name. James and Marguerite Baturi ensured that the sponsors kept their promise when Olympic Spirit finished fifth in the Molecomb Stakes.

The lucky owners were fortunate to win the horse in a competition organised by William Hill and Midland Bank to raise money for the British Olympic Fund.

1997Sir Peter O’Sullevan, doyen of racing commentators, delivered his final Goodwood broadcast on September 13, before retiring from his duties behind the microphone for the BBC.

It was not an easy assignment with which to sign off. The race in question was the William Hill Sprint Cup Handicap, a six-furlong dash with 29 runners in which the winning margin was a short-head.

Master trainer Major Dick Hern was another legendary figure who retired in 1997. His

first winner at Goodwood was Trimmer in the 1959 Trundle Stakes. Another 114 victories followed, including two Sussex Stakes, two Goodwood Cups, five Gordon Stakes and six Vintage Stakes.

His final success at the track was Khafaaq in the Scats Handicap on September 25, 1997, and he nearly had a winner with his last Goodwood runner when The Thruster went down by three quarters of a length in the St John Ambulance Brigade Nursery later on the same card.

Averti’s last-gasp success in the King George Stakes at Glorious Goodwood brought both trainer William Muir and the horse a first Group victory. One of the reasons the six-year-old had not previously realised his full potential on the racecourse was a fear of the starting stalls which caused him to panic at the beginning of his races.

On the final day of Glorious Goodwood, racegoers had the unusual privilege of watching in action a future Eclipse Award winner for Best Turf Filly or Mare in the United States. The filly in question was the John Gosden-trained Ryafan who justified favouritism in the Nassau Stakes which turned out to be Ryafan’s final race in Europe as she was sent across the Atlantic in the autumn.

She won all three of her races in America - the Queen Elizabeth II Challenge Cup at Keeneland, the Yellow Ribbon Stakes at Santa Anita and the Matriarch Stakes at Hollywood Park.

1998The 1m 1f 192y start (previously 1m 2f) combined with the 1m 1f start, the longer races using the top bend and the shorter contests the lower bend.

Double Trigger became the first horse to win three Goodwood Cups, having previously won

the race in 1995 and 1997. He had seemingly lost his way after the 1997 victory. However, a good second to Kayf Tara in the 1998 Gold Cup at Ascot showed that ‘Trigger’ was not a light of yesteryear. Sent off at 11-2 behind the 5-2 favourite Kayf Tara, Double Trigger stormed through to beat Canon Can by three quarters of a length to the delight of the big crowd.

What is now the Group Three Bonhams Thoroughbred Stakes, for three-year-olds over a mile, was introduced into the Glorious Goodwood programme.

The Tote’s new Trifecta bet was introduced for the first time in the Stewards’ Cup.

Champion trainer under both codes in Ireland, Aidan O’Brien gained his first Goodwood win with the two-year-old colt Orpen in the EBF Richard Baerlein Maiden on August 1.

1999The Nassau Stakes became a Group One contest.

The draw for the Stewards’ Cup was decided by owners and trainers for the first time and this practice continues for the big sprint handicap.

Apprentice Adrian Nicholls completed a fantastic 1,979/1 treble on the Friday of Glorious Goodwood, scoring on Pure Elegancia for his trainer father Dandy Nicholls, Petrus for Clive Brittain and Out Line for Michael Madgwick.

Saeed bin Suroor pulled off a magnificent training feat in 1999, winning both of Goodwood’s Group One Pattern contests, as well as being the top trainer at Glorious Goodwood with four winners.

The Newmarket-based handler, who trains for Godolphin, sent out Aljabr to land the Sussex Stakes in a new course record

time of 1m 35.66s and was also successful with Zahrat Dubai in the Nassau Stakes.

It was a good year for the trainer at Goodwood as he was also successful in the Goodwood Cup with Kayf Tara, Cape Cross won the Celebration Mile and Dubai Millennium won a Listed race.

2000A festive crowd came to Goodwood to celebrate HM The Queen Mother’s 100th birthday on Thursday, August 4, 2000. The Group Three Molecomb Stakes was named the Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother’s 100th Birthday Molecomb Stakes to honour the occasion.

The defining moment of the season was the ‘Iron Horse’ Giant’s Causeway winning the Group One Sussex Stakes. The three-year-old Storm Cat colt thus gained his third Group One success of the campaign and he went on to two further victories at the highest level, as well as finishing a magnificent second to Tiznow in America’s Breeders’ Cup Classic at Churchill Downs in November that year.

Giant’s Causeway, trained by Irish champion Aidan O’Brien, was the first Irish-trained winnerof the Sussex Stakes since the (no relation) Vincent O’Brien-trained King’s Lake in the 1981 renewal.

The Lennox Stakes was first run as a Group Three event and achieved promotion to Group Two status in 2003.

Richard Hughes, much better known as a Flat jockey, renewed his jump licence especially so he could partner all-the-way winner Samarardo in the Ucello II & Ubu III Trophy Handicap, confined to jump jockeys, for trainer Nick Littmoden on September 21.

2001The paddock redevelopment opened to much praise.

The Group Two Richmond Stakes transferred from the Thursday of Glorious Goodwood to the Tuesday to strengthen the first day’s programme.

2002The Racecourse celebrated its 200th Anniversary and the occasion was marked by the publication of the ‘Glorious Goodwood’ book and video and the launch of the GG Club, Goodwood’s racing club for the younger generation.

The Aidan O’Brien-trained Rock Of Gibraltar equalled Mill Reef’s record of six consecutive Group One victories with success in the Sussex Stakes.

2003Persian Punch will always be remembered with great fondness at Goodwood and his rousing victory in the 2003 Goodwood Cup will go down as one of the most memorable in Goodwood’s history.

It was two years after his first success in the race and, at 10 years of age, there were a group of young pretenders eager to snatch the staying crown from this most admirable of horses.

Sent off the 7-2 second favourite, the son of Persian Heights was soon leading the field and despite coming under pressure at the half-way stage, his supporters drew confidence from his previous heroic performances. So many times had he turned around a hopeless looking situation and come out on top, but it was obvious from a quarter-mile out that Persian Punch would have to fight like never before.

Jardines Lookout, the previous year’s winner and four years Persian Punch’s junior, looked

momentarily as though he would grasp victory, but David Elsworth’s charge stuck his neck out and managed to land a famous victory under an emotional Martin Dwyer.

The jockey paraded Persian Punch in front of the stands and the reception the horses received was no less vociferous than when Double Trigger claimed his third Goodwood Cup in 1998.

A seventh run in the Goodwood Cup was on the agenda for Persian Punch in 2004, but sadly, the huge horse with an even bigger following collapsed and died on his seasonal reappearance at Ascot in April.

Persian Punch’s courage and spirit will always be intrinsically linked to Goodwood and it is only fitting that his ashes are buried at the racecourse where he achieved so much.

A new fixture was introduced on Sunday, October 12.

2004Goodwood hosted its first-ever fixture on a Saturday evening, entitled ‘Romance At The Races’. Goodwood was one of 30 courses to sign up to Racing UK, the dedicated horseracing broadcaster.

The Goodwood groundstaff team, headed by Seamus Buckley, won the Neil Wyatt award for the best Flat racecourse in Britain for the second year running and a third time in all. They won it for the first time in 1999.

2005The new tote betting hall, which benefits both the Richmond and Gordon Enclosures, was unveiled before the first raceday of the season.

2006They said that we’d never witness a more exciting race at Goodwood than Marling’s epic

head victory over Selkirk for the 1992 Sussex Stakes - well they were wrong! Those present for the Nassau Stakes remain adamant that the battle between those two globetrotting mares Ouija Board and Alexander Goldrun was ‘as good as it gets’.

The seven runners could boast success in no fewer than 13 Group One races, yet from the two-furlong pole where classy three-year-old Nannina, who had won the Coronation Stakes at Royal Ascot, had to give best to her elders, who fought tooth and tail up the straight, neither giving an inch.

Frankie Dettori committed Ouija Board turning for home, but Alexander Goldrun, who had been the heroine in this race 12 months earlier, mastered Lord Derby’s much-travelled superstar in the last 300 yards, seemingly set for victory.

However, defeat was not a word you could associate with either Frankie’s or Ouija Board and they found one renewed surge close home to win a thrilling encounter by a short-head.

This was a simply wonderful renewal of Goodwood’s prestigious midsummer championship for fillies.

2007 Channel 4 took over terrestrial television coverage of racing at Goodwood, following on from a 50-year partnership with the BBC.

2008 Goodwood celebrated with one of its greatest friends when staging the Sir Peter O’Sullevan ‘The Voice of Racing’ 90th Birthday Handicap during Glorious Goodwood.

2009The quality of the racing was tremendous throughout the year, but particularly noteworthy was Rip Van Winkle’s impressive triumph in the Sussex Stakes, while Midday, the gutsy winner of the Nassau Stakes, and Vale Of York, successful in the Listed Peter Willett Stakes, both went on to triumph at America’s top meeting of the year, the Breeders’ Cup.

Danny Smith, a member of Goodwood’s groundstaff for 42 years, retired.

2010Midday won the Nassau Stakes for a second successive year, rallying well, while top-class three-year- old Canford Cliffs got the better of Rip Van Winkle in cheeky fashion at the end of a thrilling renewal of the Sussex Stakes.

Canford Cliffs was one of a modern record of nine winners at Glorious Goodwood for trainer Richard Hannon snr and jockey Richard Hughes.

Hannon ended the year with 22 Goodwood successes – a new annual record total for any trainer at the West Sussex course.

Adam Waterworth took over as managing director at the end of the year from Rod Fabricius who retired after 28 years in the role.

Goodwood finished runner-up for the best Flat racecourse for the fifth year running in the Pitchcare Neil Wyatt Racecourse Groundstaff Awards.

2011Frankel became a true champion when the emphatic five-length winner of the much-anticipated ‘Duel on the Downs’ with the Richard Hannon-trained star Canford Cliffs in the Sussex

Stakes. He ended the year rated the best horse in the world.

Sir Henry Cecil, Frankel’s trainer who was knighted in June, also saddled Midday to win a record-breaking third consecutive Group One Nassau Stakes – the mare’s sixth success at the highest level.

Richard Hughes dominated the jockeys’ standings at Goodwood for the second successive year, riding an astonishing 21 winners.

2012History was created when Frankel became the first horse to win the Sussex Stakes twice. Starting at 1/20, he was the shortest-priced favourite to capture the Group One mile feature and had no difficulty in seeing off by six lengths Godolphin’s Farrh, who won two Group Ones the following year.

Frankel retired unbeaten in 14 starts - 10 of which came at Group One level - and earned a rating of 140 in the World Thoroughbred Racehorse Ratings. This was the highest rating awarded since the system was introduced in 1977 and Frankel has a claim to be the best horse to have run at Goodwood.

2013Goodwood’s most successful trainer of modern times, Richard Hannon snr, handed over the reins to his son Richard at the end of 2013.

The Wiltshire handler retired following a record 257 victories at the course, of which a joint-record of 73 were at Glorious Goodwood. A superb final season for the trainer included a third success in the Sussex Stakes with Toronado, a record-equalling nine winners at Glorious Goodwood and a 10th leading annual trainer award with 18 triumphs.

Fellow training legend Sir Henry Cecil passed away following a long battle with cancer in June, 2013. The master of Warren Place in Newmarket was responsible for 170 wins at Goodwood, with a joint-record of 73 at Glorious Goodwood - and oversaw the careers of Sussex Stakes winners Bolkonski, Wollow, Kris and the imperious Frankel, as well as outstanding stayers Le Moss and Ardross, who both won the Goodwood Cup.

2014 Richard Hannon jnr continued where his father left off and was leading trainer at Goodwood with 11 wins through the season.

Kingman put up an imperious performance to win the Sussex Stakes, scoring easily by a length from Toronado. The colt, owned by Khalid Abdullah and trained by John Gosden, was named the joint-best three-year-old in Europe and crowned Cartier Horse Of The Year.

In December, at the iconic Shard building in London, Goodwood Racecourse announced a new 10-year partnership with Qatar - the single biggest sponsorship deal ever done for the benefit of British racing. Commencing in 2015, this makes the Qatar Goodwood Festival one of the most significant and valuable meetings in the world. The partnership results in over £2 million being invested into prize money for eight key races during the Qatar Goodwood Festival 2015, as well as a commitment to increase this year-on-year. Total prize money on offer for the week now totals over £4.5 million, with Qatar demonstrating its passion and support for British racing (see pages 4 and 5 for further information).
