Glorious Goodwood (Ladies) Day Three 2012
Day Three and Ladies day and easily the most colourful day of the week, however even that may be overshadowed this year if the legendary Yeats defends the Goodwood Cup. Yeats of course re-wrote the record books at Royal Ascot when winning the Gold Cup for the fourth time last month. He will be given a hero’s welcome should he turn up on the Sussex Downs this year.

Needless to say the Goodwood Cup is the highlight of the day and of course it has been won by horses like Yeats in the past so is always one to watch. The first race however is the Group Three Lily Langtry Stakes over 1 mile 6 furlongs, won in 2008 by Gravitation with Alan Munro in the saddle. The Audi Stakes over five furlongs follows, this race provided jockey Johnny Murtagh with his fourth winner of the meeting in 2008, when he rode Enticing to a very exciting win. It is then the Goodwood Cup, which should see Yeats win and that is followed by the Heritage Handicap Stakes, won in 2008 by Indian Days with Alan Munro on his second winner of the day.
