Goodwood Horse Racing Results

Situated on the picturesque South Downs, high above the English south-coast town of Chichester, on a sunny day Goodwood is one of Britain’s finest racecourses. The track is unique in more ways than one and the switchback nature of the course can favour those with previous experience at the track (see below), but that doesn’t stop it from hosting one of the flagship meetings of the British racing calendar.

Staged during the height of summer, ‘Glorious’ Goodwood has long been the midsummer highlight of the racing calendar and its status was further boosted in 2015 with the unveiling of a 10-year sponsorship deal with Qatar. Feature races include the Sussex Stakes – often billed as the Duel on the Downs – which frequently sees the best three-year-old miler take on the best older horse for the first time, plus the Goodwood Cup, Nassau Stakes and the Stewards’ Cup.

Outside of the big festival Goodwood also stages an important three-day spring meeting in May and another over three days in late August, when the feature race is the Celebration Mile.
