With 10 wins and 11 placings from 28 starts, Rey Magnerio has been a remarkably consistent sprinter throughout his career.

The six-year-old will contest The Goodwood third-up, having resumed with a competitive sixth-of-11 finish in the Group 1 William Reid Stakes before heading west for a runner-up effort behind the in-form Jigsaw in The Quokka.

In a competitive market with Unibet Australia, Rey Magnerio is a $5 favourite to win The Goodwood in 2026.

Lightly raced filly Extragalactic has shown above-average ability across two campaigns and has continued to improve this autumn, opening her 2026 account with back-to-back victories.

While a hat-trick eluded her on April 25, she still caught the eye when finishing second in the Group 2 Tobin Bronze Stakes, a race that has produced two of the past three winners of The Goodwood.

At $6, Extragalactic shares the second line of betting with Flying For Fun, who opened her autumn campaign with a Group 3 victory and was unlucky last start in the Group 1 Robert Sangster Stakes when finishing fourth-of-13.

Tycoon Star secured a third stakes success last start in the Tobin Bronze Stakes, following runner-up finishes at both his first and second runs this preparation, and he has now won two of his past three attempts over 1200m.

He is priced at $8 alongside Recon and Point Barrow, both of whom are promising sprinters.

Recon has won six of 11 starts, including a comfortable Listed Hareeba Stakes victory when second-up at Mornington, and he progressed quickly through the grades last year.

Point Barrow is an exciting filly with a strong finishing burst, and after winning second-up at Caulfield, she caught the eye last start from the rear when finishing fifth in the Group 1 Robert Sangster Stakes.

The Goodwood Winners

The Goodwood boasts a rich history as South Australia’s premier sprint, consistently attracting elite contenders from leading stables across the southern and eastern states.

Run over 1200m at Morphettville, the race dates back to 1881 and has long been a defining target for Australia’s top sprinters during the Adelaide Autumn Carnival.

Its honour roll features champion names such as Takeover Target and Black Caviar, underlining the race’s status as one of the nation’s most respected Group 1 contests.

More recently, Royal Merchant (2023), Benedetta (2024), and Reserve Bank (2025) have claimed the past three editions of The Goodwood.
