Stewards Cup Betting Odds

The Stewards Cup is one of the most famous heritage handicaps of the Flat Racing season in the UK and is run on the Saturday and final day of the five day Glorious Goodwood meeting and is one of the busiest days of the year for bookmakers.

A six furlong sprint with a field of 28 runners, this famous race really is the definiton of  a ‘Cavalry Charge’ and is a punters paradise at 8/1 the field, offering plenty of opportunities to find some big price winners and each-way value and race sponsors, Bluesquare.com are offering 1/4 odds 1,2,3,4,5 for each way backers. Only three winners have won the race in the past 20 years and the shortest price of those was 6/1 so if you are lucky enough to find the winner, the chances are you’ll be cashing in!

Much is said about the draw bias in these big sprint races and Goodwood is no different, with horse drawn in the top half of the draw (14 or higher) winning 15 of the last 20 renewals of the Stewards Cup. The favourite for this year’s race, Markab, would have to defy that trend but not by much, as he comes from stall 13 and could easily join the favoured far side group. The Henry Candy trained runner is generally available at around an 8/1 chance with several bookmakers and looks well handicapped, as does the John Gosden trained Prohibit who wasn’t too far behind Markab in the Wokingham at Royal Ascot in June.

However, the answer to the Wokingham could lie with the John Gallagher trained Mac Gille Eoin who has been running well in handicaps all season, drawn in the middle in box 14, he will have the choice of which group to follow and could make his presence felt if repeating the form he showed at Epsom recently, a course not too dismiliar to Goodwood for its endulations  and at 16/1 looks a good each-way bet to make the frame with the sponsors.

Nassau Stakes Betting Headed by Cecil’s Midday

The Group One Nassau Stakes at Glorious Goodwood on Saturday is one of the feature races of the five day long meeting and oen of the top Fillies and Mares races of the Flat season over a distance of 1m 1f.

The Henry Cecil trained filly, Midday, is the favourite for the race at a best price of 3/1 with bookmakers Ladbrokes and Paddypower and whilst she has only won of of her three starts this season, the Oaks trial at Lingfield in May, this three year old’s second and third places in her two subsequent races (both behind superstar filly Sariska ) make her the one to beat. Rainbow View is second in the bookies lists but this John Gosden trained filly has been unable to recapture the form that saw her go unbeaten as a two year old but has not been disgraced in her defeats this term should once again have a win in her at this level.

The James Fanshawe trained Spacious could pose the biggest threat to the leading duo at the head of the betting and this four year old has run well in Group company this season, including a third in the Falmouth Stakes last time out and a win in the Windsor Forest stakes at Royal Ascot. A step up in trip may be what she need to bring about that elusive Group One success.
