Horses To Follow
Horses to Follow from Glorious Goodwood 2025
Goodwood Galaxy
Goodwood Galaxy
Ran a race full of promise to finish fourth as a 25-1 shot in the Vintage Stakes.
Trained by David Menuisier, Goodwood Galaxy was a relatively cheap purchase at 45,000 guineas as a yearling but hails from the family of last year's Irish 1,000 Guineas winner Fallen Angel and had made a winning debut at Salisbury in late June.
Swiftly hiked to Group Two company, he was last approaching the final furlong but stayed on with real purpose to be beaten just over two lengths by winner Zavateri, offering plenty of hope for the future at this seven-furlong trip and beyond.
Shaman Champion
Shaman Champion
Looks up to winning a similar event after coming up just short in the Hawes & Curtis Nursery Handicap.
Ridden with patience by Oisin Murphy, Richard Hughes' youngster came with a winning run in the closing stages but could not get past a very game winner with plenty of experience to his name.
With his own extra experience now under his belt, it would be no surprise to see Shaman Champion in the winner's enclosure as the season progresses.
Evanesco
Evanesco
It is surely only a matter of time before this Amo Racing-owned juvenile opens his account, judged on a promising second run at Goodwood on Saturday.
Ultimately well beaten when fifth on his Haydock debut a month ago, Charlie Johnston's charge was a 14-1 shot for his next assignment in what looked a strong contest on the Sussex Downs.
The Too Darn Hot colt clearly learnt plenty from that initial effort as he was travelling best of all entering the final furlong before being run down by Aidan O'Brien's odds-on favourite Isaac Newton. It will be a surprise if Evanesco does not make it third time lucky in maiden company next time.
Mdawi
Mdawi
Another Johnston inmate who was perhaps an unlucky loser on Wednesday, when short of room while wanting to make his challenge in the opening mile-and-a-half handicap.
He eventually got rolling but the bird had already flown and he had to settle for second, one and three-quarter lengths adrift of winner Omni Man.
A son of the top-class mare Peeping Fawn, his second quickfire spin on the Sussex Downs over a furlong less on Friday may have just come too soon and this year's Southwell and Doncaster scorer is worth sticking with.
