Goodwood Racecourse’s 2025 horseracing season came to a close on Sunday 12 October with Season Finale presented by Virgin Bet. Across the last six months and 19 fixtures, the Sussex racecourse has showcased world-class racing and welcomed enthusiastic crowds, including at the headline Qatar Goodwood Festival presented by Visit Qatar.
The final fixture saw Oisin Murphy win Leading Jockey, while Ralph Beckett took the title of Leading Trainer after a successful season at Goodwood Racecourse. The contest for Leading Jockey came down to the penultimate race of the day with Rossa Ryan, Kieran Shoemark and Oisin Murphy all competing for the title.
After being crowned Leading Jockey, Oisin Murphy, said: “It’s great to see such a large crowd at Goodwood Racecourse, with almost 3,000 young people here. Goodwood really does a marvellous job, the ground here is in beautiful condition and it’s great to see people out supporting racing.”
The racecourse’s headline event, Qatar Goodwood Festival presented by Visit Qatar (29 July - 2 August), once again proved itself as one of the highlights of the flat racing season with a 10 percent increase in attendance. A record number of international broadcasters also covered the racing event, while there was an historic result in the Visit Qatar Sussex Stakes with 150-1 winner Qirat.
Goodwood Racecourse Director, James Crespi, said: “We’ve enjoyed a wonderful season here at Goodwood Racecourse. Our flagship event, the Qatar Goodwood Festival presented by Visit Qatar, was a particular highlight with world-class racing, increased attendance, and extensive media and broadcast coverage. We were delighted to welcome Visit Qatar as the new headline partner of the event.
Earlier in the year, the Three Friday Nights featured DJ sets from Groove Armada, Hot Chip, Artful Dodger and Woody Cook and, following the success of last year’s initiative, we again hosted a series of pop-ups by award-winning local restaurants.
As we draw the 2025 season to a close, we are already planning for 2026, with exciting developments to further enhance racegoers’ experience. I would like to thank everyone who has made the 2025 season so special, and we look forward to welcoming you back next year!”
Clerk of the course, Edward Arkell, said: “While it has been a challenging season with the weather, the Grounds Team has done an amazing job to keep the racing surface in such good condition. We’ve had some exceptional racing and seen horses go on to win Classics and Group races at all the major European race meetings.”
