2023 Harroways Handicap Betting Odds at Goodwood racecourse

Saturday, 27 May 2023

It’s going to be a wide open tussle when it comes to the 2023 William Hill Harroways Handicap, with the bookmakers likely to provide some Goodwood racing price boosts for an encounter which takes place over seven furlongs. This is a Class 2 encounter where Tafreej is set to go off favourite, although there are several other horses trading at single figure odds.

Charlie Appleby has a promising horse in the form of City Of Kings, while Bresson has plenty of experience under his belt after a string of runs as a juvenile. However, Yacowlef and Dark Thirty both landed victories in their previous outing and it could be worth considering some of the bigger-priced runners when it comes to trying to find a winner.

2023 Harroways Handicap Tips

There are so many horses in with a lively chance of victory when it comes to the William Hill Harroways Handicap, with Tafreej having finished third in his first outing of the season. The three-year-old ran in the Dubai Duty Free Full of Surprises Handicap when being sent off as the 2/1 favourite, although the William Haggas-trained runner was unable to oblige.

Previously to this run, there was a victory at Yarmouth Racecourse last October although there are plenty of other runners to consider at bigger prices and this includes City Of Kings. Charlie Appleby saw his charge finish well down the order at Newmarket on his most recent outing and that was partly down to being too lively before the race had even started.

Bresson is well-raced and has to stand an each-way chance, with John & Thady Gosden saddling a horse who finished midfield at Doncaster last time out. In the Carlsberg Marstons Doncaster Stakes, the runner seemed to struggle with the heavy ground over six furlongs, although there was previously a brighter performance at Salisbury.

Yacowlef was the winner of his previous race when claiming a victory at Newmarket on 6 May, with the horse narrowly edging out favourite Striking Star, with the horse originally finishing second in the bet365 Handicap on 20 April at the same race track and we think this is a better each-way selection than the others at the head of the market.
