<\/p>\nFrom a trading perspective I like multi day high quality meetings. They usually throw up some good opportunities and are a welcome addition to the month.<\/p>\n
As you may know these higher quality meetings produce extra volume and that can change the characteristics significantly. But don\u2019t let Goodwood or anybody else fool you into thinking it\u2019s the same as a Royal Ascot or Cheltenham, it behaves very differently. Goodwood benefits from decent volume but it\u2019s not as much as some major meetings. Therefore it can be a little tricky at times to get exactly right.\u00a0Goodwood is much better than the normal day to day fodder you are used to, but not quite on the same scale as other major meetings.\u00a0Last year, at post time, it turned over around 40% on average of a typical Ascot race.<\/p>\n
I\u2019ve often had mixed results at Goodwood, so Tuesday is my day for \u2018feeling\u2019 the market and testing its boundaries. Day one is has some very competitive handicaps, so those should be an interesting base to work form on day one. There \u00a0will be a variety of markets in the mix so half decent stakes and care will be my hallmarks for the day.<\/p>\n
