There is racing from Goodwood on Sunday

Timeform pick out three bets from Goodwood and Yarmouth on Sunday.

Mafaaheem - 16:05 Yarmouth

Mafaaheem got off the mark with loads to spare at Nottingham last time, but it's his previous form that catches the eye, his narrow seconds to both Game Starter and Jake's Hill making him look potentially thrown in from a mark of 91, so he's a confident selection to make a winning start in handicaps. Another Eclipse is an obvious danger, as is Laqab if tuned up following a 10-month absence.

Dutch Connection - 16:30 Goodwood

Dutch Connection has been a little disappointing on the face of it this year, but both his runs can be excused, and he usually puts his best foot forward at this track, winning the Lennox Stakes last year, so he's expected to outclass his rivals here. Salateen could make it difficult for the selection if allowed his own way in front and Bless Him has come a long way in a short space of time, so it would be folly to rule out further progress from him.

Mountain Angel - 16:40 Yarmouth

Mountain Angel arrives on the back of a somewhat disappointing showing, but it had been all positive with him up to that point, and he's expected to get back on the up taking on his elders for the first time. Brigliadoro and Repercussion arrive in good form and should acquit themselves well once more, but they lack the selection's scope for improvement.
