American Affair (GB) won the 15:35 Goodwood at SP 13.00. Ridden by Paul Mulrennan. Trained by Jim Goldie.
No — the AI top pick (Lamborghini Bf) finished 6.
Top finishers: 1. American Affair (GB) (13.00), 2. Rumstar (GB) (7.00), 3. Time For Sandals (IRE) (15.00).
The winning time was 55.68s.
Night Raider heads this competitive five-furlong Class 1 at Goodwood on a rating three points clear of Rumstar, and his recent form marks him out as the one to beat in a typically deep sprint field. Rumstar and Time For Sandals will push him hardest, while Asfoora is only a point behind them on ratings and cannot be dismissed on her best form. The presence of fifteen runners over the minimum trip ensures there will be little margin for error, but Night Raider's edge at the top of the ratings reflects a consistent profile that should see him involved right to the line. **Night Raider** is our selection.
