ITV’s coverage on Friday kicks off with a handicap over an extended two miles and four.
Align The Stars could be one of the few involved that are still improving, and the Charlie Johnston stable has been in respectable form over the last two weeks.
The four-year-old was fifth of 13 over a mile and six at Newmarket in July, but his best run this season came in the Ascot Stakes over two miles and four when beaten just two lengths by the well-handicapped Ascending.
Has previous winning form at Goodwood over a mile and six, and a return to the track could spark a revival.
Winners have been few and far between for Charlie Appleby this week, but the trainer holds excellent claims in the Group Three Bonhams Thoroughbred Stakes with Opera Ballo.
The colt has won each of his last two since finishing a disappointing sixth in the Group One 2,000 Guineas.
Was excellent over a mile on his latest outing when beating three of his reappearing rivals in the Sir Henry Cecil Stakes. Steadily progressive, and another strong showing is likely in this company.
Plenty will hold chances in the Coral Golden Mile, with 19 runners going to post.
However, Arisaig has constantly promised to deliver in a race of this standing this season, and Friday could be his day. The Charlie Johnston runner is a previous winner over course and distance after winning at Goodwood at this meeting 12 months ago.
Has strong form to his name this season, which includes an excellent second behind Classic at Sandown at the start of July. That form can be upgraded, meaning that he has plenty going in his favour.
Three-year-olds have an excellent record in the Group Two King George Qatar Stakes, and Time For Sandals is taken to improve that strike rate.
Harry Eustace’s runner was a game winner of the Group One Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot last month, holding off Arizona Blaze to win by a neck.
Will carry a 5lb penalty for that win at the highest level, but a return to six furlongs should suit.
Already has winning form over the trip, and ran an excellent race at York last year when narrowly beaten by Celandine in the Group Two Lowther Stakes.
A trappy renewal of the Bentinck Conditions Stakes rounds off the coverage on ITV on Friday. The narrow preference is for the William Haggas-trained Godwinson.
The five-year-old has been in career-best form this season, winning on a pair of stars over a mile at Doncaster and Newcastle.
His late finishing style means that the winning margins likely underestimate him, but he handles the track after winning over a mile at Goodwood last August.
Likely to make his presence felt with Tom Marquand back aboard.
Coverage begins at 13:00 from Goodwood on ITV1 and ITVX. Live races today include:
