Lennox Stakes

Bet365 Lennox Stakes Betting 2012 - Strong Suit Cruises To Win

The Lennox Stakes has been one of the key races at the Glorious Goodwood Festival ever since it was first introduced to the meeting back in 2000. It is a Group 2 Race over 7 furlongs and tends to attract a good standard of horses who are at their best at just under the mile trip of 8 furlongs. Recently it has been known as the Betfair Cup but that sponsorship has been taken over by Bet365 from 2011, it will however keep its place as one of the key races on the first day of the Glorious Goodwood meeting.

We have had some nice winners of the Lennox Stakes recently including the likes of Paco Boy in 2008 and Lord Shanakill who picked up the win in 2010 for Sir Henry Cecil and Tom Queally. One that looks set to run this season is Delegator for godolphin who has been impressive since dropping in trip and he could be the one to beat here.
