One of the big races of the afternoon on Tuesday from Goodwood is the Group Two Vintage Stakes and its hard to see past the favourite Haatem.

A model of consistency in his five runs this term starting his career off at Goodwood when finishing a close third over 5f and he learnt a lot for the experience.

He showed that when winning next time out in very impressive fashion at Bath bolting up by six lengths in a Maiden over 5.5f.

Sent into the Woodcote at Epsom a the Derby meeting he finished another competitive third behind the talented Bobsleigh and Balon D'Or.

Last seen at Newmarket on the July Course when stepped up to 7f for the first time he finished a good second behind City Of Troy in the Group Two Superlative Stakes.

That is by far the best form on offer and if running to the same level he should take this easier event.
