Steeped in racing heritage, Qatar Goodwood Festival always attracts the very best equine athletes from the UK and around the world.
On day one, staying superstar Stradivarius will look to win a record fifth Group 1 Al Shaqab Goodwood Cup when he returns in 2022. The milers grace the hallowed Goodwood turf in the £1 million Qatar Sussex Stakes on day two, before fillies strut their stuff on Ladies Day. As if that isn’t enough, day five sees the fastest racehorses in the world contest the King George Qatar Stakes on Friday.

The beauty of Goodwood, the fantastic hospitality of the sponsors, and the Duke of Richmond, alongside so many friends, enjoying the thrill of phenomenal racing was simply out of this world!
Goodwood is a unique track but one I love the challenge of riding. It’s such a beautiful racecourse and it’s a meeting I always look forward to
I came here three years ago but once you’re bitten, you have to come back. It is always atmospheric here, it doesn’t matter what the weather conditions are, it is always a memorable day. Everything about Goodwood is done for love, it’s been crafted lovingly over centuries.
There are some amazing racecourses around the world, but without fail you feel like you’re in one of the most special.
July 2021 is going to live long in my memory when my dream of a first Group 1 victory became reality as Lady Bowthorpe in the Qatar Nassau Stakes at Goodwood. The beauty of Goodwood, the fantastic hospitality of the sponsors, and the Duke of Richmond, alongside so many friends, enjoying the moment and the thrill of the phenomenal racing was simply out of this world!
It has been fantastic… this is another great Goodwood event, with a great atmosphere.
The Qatar Goodwood Festival is a beautiful week and Goodwood is the most picturesque racecourse in the country.
