There’ll be the thought of trainers as they decide which Glorious races to target, the thoughts of Goodwood officials as they get everything at the racecourse ready for the off, plus all the vital details you’ll need for buying tickets and finding out about special offers.

During the festival itself we will have a live blog each day which will include tips, the going report, reports, results, reaction and pictures - plus your chance to get involved with your own tips, comments and questions.
