Goodwood Racecourse is a
horse-racing track five miles north of
Chichester,
West Sussex, in
England controlled by the family of the
Duke of Richmond, whose seat is nearby
Goodwood House. It hosts the annual Glorious Goodwood meeting, which is one of the highlights of the
British flat racing calendar, and is home to two of the UK's 31 Group One flat races, the
Sussex Stakes and the
Nassau Stakes. It is considered to enjoy a very attractive setting to the north of
Trundle Iron Age hill fort, which is used as an informal grandstand with views of the whole course. One problem is that its proximity to the coast means that it can get very foggy.
