Horse Racing Tips: Jason Weaver’s ITV Racing picks at Goodwood on Thursday

Meydaan gets the nod in the Gordon Stakes at 15:00.

Jason Weaver’s Goodwood Racing Tips

13:50 – Mortlake (each-way)
14:25 – Tropical Storm
15:00 – Meydaan
15:35 – Elmalka (each-way)

13:50 Mortlake

In a race full of improvers, MORTLAKE has a massive chance to step up dramatically on the form he has shown so far now he goes over what could be his ideal distance.

He certainly got to enjoy the quicker ground conditions and has been completely overlooked in the market as an each-way option at a huge price.

14:25 Tropical Storm

TROPICAL STORM is quite clearly improving with his racing and all of his three tries so far have been over the minimum 5 furlongs.

They made quite a bit of use of him last time when chasing home Shareholder and now goes up the extra 220 yards, so don’t be surprised if he takes a lead early on.

15:00 Meydaan

MEYDAAN was running fairly well when the team were woefully out of form and so has to be given some credit for that.

He did manage to win over a furlong shorter here producing a very decent effort, and then was too keen when stepped up dramatically at the Royal meeting into Group 2 company. Today he comes down one peg of the ladder and course form will stand him in good stead.

15:35 Elmalka

ELMALKA’s form so far this year looks rock solid and now that she gets the extra quarter-mile to stretch her legs we could see her continue to reach higher up the ratings as an each-way option.

She was held up at the back of the pack and made ground all the way to the line to finish a solid fourth in the coronation at the Royal meeting suggesting she’s ready for a step up to 10f.
