You only need one Amigo at Goodwood today

THE Stewards Cup at Goodwood looks as hard as ever and we will come onto the main event at the Sussex track shortly but, from a betting viewpoint, I am much more interested in the consolation event due off at 1.50.

Most of the 23 runners have been on the go for a long time now and I think the value lies with My Amigo (nap) set to race over six furlongs for only the sixth time in his 23-race career.

Career form figures of 1330 over that trip, the last of which was off a 291 day break suggest he can be competitive at this level especially as the assessor has been relatively kind to him, dropping his rating from a high of 85 last season down to 80 this afternoon.
