Racing returns to Goodwood Racecourse on Tuesday with a competitive seven-race card that gets under way at 1.50pm and concludes at 5.07pm.

The ground at the track is currently Good to Firm, Good in places and we have previewed the action with our race by race guide. If you are going racing this week, take a look at OLBG for more tips.

1.50pm Handicap (1m 3f)

Montaqem shaped with promise when a good third at Lingfield last time out and he warrants respect. However, preference is for King’s Castle. The four-year-old ran a race full of promise when second to a progressive rival at Epsom last time out and he is taken to go one better here.

Selection: King’s Castle

2.25pm Fillies’ Novice Stakes (7f)

Rock Melody impressed on debut at Redcar, before finishing 10th in Listed company at Newmarket. However, she bounced back to form when second at Windsor last time out and is respected, along with fellow winner Piffle who scored narrowly at Windsor. However, Caryatid is an interesting newcomer for William Haggas. Out of a Group Two winner, she is a full-sister to Listed winner Gabr and makes plenty of appeal on pedigree.
