The Goodwood Festival, aka ‘Glorious Goodwood’, is a real fan favourite in the Flat Racing calendar, and with the government lifting most of their coronavirus restrictions prior to the meeting, there was no limit on how many racegoers were allowed to ascend on the concourses of the scenic course making it a very special meeting.
