In 1802 the 3rd Duke of Richmond introduced horseracing to Goodwood for the amusement of local army officers. Race week was so popular it was soon dubbed Glorious Goodwood and today the racecourse is renowned for being one of the most exciting – and is considered by many as the most beautiful – in the world. The end of one era and the beginning of another will overlap at Glorious Goodwood this week, as Seamus Buckley, the track's clerk of the course for nearly a quarter of a century, oversees the meeting for the last time, while the meet itself breaks fresh ground with three Group One events spread over the next five days. The driving force behind Goodwood's rapid progress in recent seasons is fairly simple: money. This is the third year of a 10-year sponsorship deal with Qatar, whose branding is everywhere at this flagship meeting.
Glorious Goodwood may have the horses, the races, and the money, but it's Betadvisor.com that is the home of the champions of betting tips.
