Jim Crowley Blog | Glorious Goodwood Day Three

31 Jul 2024
Coral Racing Ambassador, Jim Crowley, previews his four rides on the third day of Glorious Goodwood, including the Coral Racing Club's very own Rockstar Icon in the last race on the card.

13:50 Goodwood – Blake

This horse was successful on Coral-Eclipse Day at Sandown a few weeks ago. He has gone up 7lb for that victory. He looks very progressive, and he has a light weight on his back with just 8st 10lb. I think he is going to run a big race again.

16:10 Goodwood – El Burhan

He is a very exciting horse who stays this 7f very well. I think eventually he will appreciate going up to 1m. The draw in stall four is a good one for him. It was a good performance at Beverley last time out. The form of his Yarmouth race has also worked out well. He is the favourite in the betting, and I think he deserves that tag, as he looks like the one to beat.

16:45 Goodwood – Unbreak My Heart

I was fourth in a Listed race on board this filly. She is now back in handicap company with top weight on her back. She is a quick filly who is dropping down in class. I think she is a big price here, so don’t be surprised to see her outrun her odds.

17:55 Goodwood – Rockstar Icon

It is fantastic to ride for the Coral Racing Club on board Rockstar Icon in the last race on day three. This horse showed plenty of ability when scoring at Lingfield two runs back. I know Paul and Oliver Cole think a lot about him. It wasn’t a bad run last time out at Newmarket in a big field. Hopefully, he can come on for that outing.

I am looking forward to meeting some of the Coral Racing Club members before and after the race in the parade ring. Let’s hope we are celebrating during the latter.
