2026 Celebration Mile Entries
Three-year-olds dominate the betting for Saturday's feature at Goodwood. The early favourite is Charlie Appleby's Distant Storm, who placed in both the British and Irish 2000 Guineas, before a Group Three success at Deauville earlier this month.
Zavateri won the Vintage Stakes here at Goodwood last term, and returns to the track following fifth-place finishes in both the Sussex Stakes and the City Of York. Karl Burke is represented by the hat-trick-seeing Shayem, who steps up to Group Two level after victories in the Sir Henry Cecil and Thoroughbred Stakes.
2025 Sussex Stakes winner Qirat is a likely runner after appearing twice during Glorious Goodwood. Seagulls Eleven wasn't beaten far in the Summer Mile at Ascot on his penultimate start. This year's Festival Stakes winner Boiling Point is another potential runner for Karl Burke.
Aidan O'Brien has entered three-year-old Isaac Newton and former Group One runner-up Expanded. Diego Ventura could take his chance for in-form trainer Hamad Al Jehani. Other potential runners include course winner Naqeeb, Morris Dancer for the Gosdens, former Lockinge winner Audience, and James Fanshawe's talented mare Pina Sonata.
