Goodwood racing tip: Roaring Legend poised to convert near misses into Coral Handicap success

Kyprios and Ryan Moore beats Stradivarius and Andrea Atzeni to win Goodwood Cup

Friday’s big races might be done and dusted by the time the Coral Handicap gets under way, but there’s still plenty to enjoy in the final race of day four at Glorious Goodwood.

17:20 Coral Handicap (1 mile 3 furlongs 44 yards)

The four market leaders are all separated by no more than two of three points, with little to choose between them in terms of betting value, and they are unlikely to all be involved in the final mix.

If push came to shove, it is Sir Michael Stoute's Nader King who stands out as the one who looks like he has most to come, with Ryan Moore booked to extract more after the colt kicked off his three-year-old season with a win, a second and a third.

Intricacy and True Legend are the only two runners with a last-time-out success under their belts, but it is a couple of horse further down the market that have attracted most attention from Tipstrr's horse racing pundits.

Jack Channon's Rathgar might be flying under the bookies' radar with Tom Marquand on board, but is is the the James Ferguson-trained Roaring Legend who gets the final collective nod.

Yet to finish outside the frame in seven career outings, this useful gelding has only managed to convert one of those into a visit to the winner's circle (five runners-up and one third).

That victory came on his penultimate outing at Salisbury in June, when first-time cheekpieces appeared to have the desired effect, and he has since confirmed that form with a decent second spot at Hamilton a month ago.

Capable claimer Harry Davies gets the ride, and his three pound allowance could prove to be a telling factor in more testing ground than he has previously encountered.
Suggested bet: Roaring Legend each-way in the 17:20 at Goodwood
