Thursday is traditionally Ladies’ Day and to complement this the Qatar Nassau Stakes (Group 1) will be the feature race on the card. Dierdre made history in 2019 for trainer Mitsuru Hashida and Japan, being the first horse from Japan to win at Goodwood and only the second time Japan have won a Group 1 contest in Britain. 2020 looks to be another fiercely competed contest for Europe’s richest 1m 2f race for Fillies and Mares.

It is time for the sprinters to come to the fore on Friday with the King George Qatar Stakes (Group 2) over five furlongs. Battaash proved to be too hot to handle for his rivals for a third consecutive year last year. Can he make it a fourth this year.

The total prize purse for the week exceeds £5million with races each year becoming even more hotly contested. The Unibet Stewards’ Cup (Heritage Handicap) is the feature on Saturday, won last time by Khaadem for trainer Charles Hills.

We do hope you will be joining us this year and thank you for your ongoing support of the Qatar Goodwood Festival.

QATAR GOODWOOD FESTIVAL

28 JULY – 1 AUGUSTAffectionately known as ‘Glorious Goodwood’, the Qatar Goodwood Festival will be run this year between 28 July – 1 August. The eyes of the racing world will be firmly set on the Sussex Downs for our annual showpiece of high quality racing and glamour in this most idyllic of settings.

We would like to thank our sponsors, both new and established, for their support in making this a week to remember for all concerned, with particular thanks going to our headline partner, the Qatar Racing and Equestrian Club.

The Group 1 Qatar Goodwood Cup takes centre stage on Day One. The two mile contest was won for an astonishing third consecutive year by the John Gosden trained Stradivarius who went on to win the WH Stayers Million series with a victory at the Ebor Festival.

The Qatar Sussex Stakes (Group 1) is the highlight of day two with a prize purse of £1million. The historic race has featured many ‘duels on the downs’ over the years and we look forward to seeing who will come to the fore this year.

MIDWEEK RACING

TUESDAY 8 SEPTEMBERThese balmy late summer afternoons are an ideal escape during the working week, offering a chance to experience Goodwood in all its glory with the spectacular seasonally coloured Sussex countryside as a fitting backdrop.

The Tuesday meeting hosts a seven-race card, the highlights of which are two Class 2 Contests both for two-year-olds, one of which being the Peter Willett Conditions Stakes named after our much-missed Goodwood Director who sadly passed away in 2015. The other major race on the card is a two-mile Class 2 Handicap for three year olds and upwards with a prize fund of £20,000.

WEDNESDAY 23 SEPTEMBERThe £50,000 listed Foundation Stakes is the feature race on this card, won in 2017 by the John Gosden trained Monarchs Glen (rated 101) who went on to win the Group 3 Darley Club Stakes. Further competitive action is provided by a £45,000 fillies handicap over one mile and six furlongs for three-year-olds and upwards.

THE GOODWOOD ESTATE

Goodwood is not only home to the Racecourse – there are several other clubs on the Estate which may be of interest to owners. Anything can be arranged, from a round of golf to a post-racing dinner at The Kennels, our Members’ Clubhouse.

GOLF CLUBThe Goodwood Estate golf courses are open to members and day guests. The Downs course at Goodwood was recently ranked within the top 100 English golf courses.

THE KENNELS The Kennels is the Members’ clubhouse for all Goodwood clubs. Steeped in history, it houses its own restaurant, bar, outdoor terraces and meeting rooms. With its relaxing, friendly atmosphere, it is the perfect place to meet with friends for lunch before racing, or a celebratory supper at the end of the day.

GOODWOOD HOTEL & HEALTH CLUBThe Goodwood Hotel is set in the heart of the Goodwood Estate. This unique, luxury hotel is the perfect balance of award-winning dining, stylish rooms and 21st century technology. It has 91 rooms & suites, and guests can make use of the adjoining health club and spa. Owners and Trainers with runners can enjoy a complimentary room upgrade (subject to availability) on their booking, either the day before or after their race. Why rush home?

AERO CLUBOpen to members and visiting pilots throughout the year, facilities at the Goodwood Aerodrome include aircraft refuelling, clearing customs, on-site engineering and maintenance support, hangarage and outdoor parking, flying tuition and flight experiences.

GOODWOOD MOTOR CIRCUIT From the thrill and buzz of Ultimate Driving track day experiences and the Festival of Speed, to the nostalgia of the Goodwood Revival, there is something for everyone at the Goodwood Motor Circuit.

SPORTING MEMBERSHIP This exclusive membership (corporate or individual) brings together a selection of the various sports for which Goodwood is famous; horseracing, motor racing, golf, flying, shooting and cricket, as well as well as some of the venues which together make the Estate such a special and unique place.

ROA GOLD STANDARD SURVEY The pinnacle of racehorse ownership is going racing with a runner. The raceday experience should be an enjoyable one, and Goodwood is one of many Racecourses’ working to deliver the best possible owners experience. The ROA Raceday Committee is continually seeking to improve the owners’ racecourse experience. Whilst every racecourse is visited annually, the Committee cannot attend every fixture, and feedback from owners and ROA members is therefore a vital part of the process. Your feedback will help the Committee decide upon the annual Gold Standard Awards, and the overall Racecourse of the Year titles.

We therefore ask that you spare just a few minutes of your time to complete the survey form at the link below about your experience on days when you have had a runner.

THE COURSE

Course CharaCteristiCs Goodwood’s pronounced gradients and sharp bends favour the active, handy type of horse, the fluent mover rather than the big, long-striding runner, and this applies especially in short races and when the going is fast.
