Day five: Glorious Goodwood

Ouija Board wins a brilliant renewal of the Vodafone Nassau Stakes, the feature race on the last day of Glorious Goodwood.

The Ed Dunlop-trained justs gets up to beat last year's winner Alexander Goldrun after a thrilling duel up the home straight.

It takes a photograph to separate the pair but Ouija Board is awarded the race, allowing jockey Frankie Dettori to perform his trademark flying dismount in the winner's enclosure.

Borderlescott at 10-1 wins the Vodafone Stewards' Cup, one of the biggest betting races of the season.

Ouija Board's jockey Frankie Dettori claims the leading rider award of the meeting with five wins.

Mark Johnston is the leading trainer with four wins, two seconds and three thirds.

3.The Gaikwar (R Kingscote) 14-1
7 ran. Dist: Shd, 2l.

Another winner for the Dandy Nicholls stable, this time ridden by Vicky Behan.

Lucayan Dancer looks to have the race sewn up with a furlong and a half to run but Adam Kirby brings Diktatoria through on a late run and the winning margin ends up as a short head.

1. Northern Fling (A Nicholls) 7-1
2. Oi Vay Joe (A Munro) 7-2
3.Part Timer (T Durcan) 7-2

Trainer Dandy Nicholls, whose squad missed out in the Stewards' Cup, gains some compensation with Northern Fling, his first winner of the week, which is ridden by his son Adrian.

1. Kilburn (P Robinson) 25-1
2. Mariotto (J Fanning) 20-1
3. Red Rock Canyon (M Kinane) 4-7f

A great result for the bookies as odds-on favourite Red Rock Canyon is beaten.

The winner Kilburn is a 25-1 shot for the Clive Brittain stable.


1505 Vodafone Stewards' Cup6f
1. Borderlescott (R Ffrench) 10-1
2. Mutamared (N Callan) 12-1

4.Excusez Moi (R Moore) 12-1
29 ran. Dist: Nk, nk.

The high draw numbers prove successful once again in the Stewards' Cup as Borderlescott gives trainer Robin Bastiman the biggest win of his career.

The huge field splits in two after coming out of the stalls and all the first four all come from the pack on the far rail.

Royston Ffrench hits the front on Borderlescott and holds on to win by a neck.

"It's fantastic, one of the best days of my life."
Winning trainer Robin Bastiman


1430 Vodafone Nassau Stakes1m 2f

7 ran. Dist: Shd, 2l

Ouija Board pips last year's winner Alexander Goldrun in a thrilling finish to the Nassau Stakes.

Jockey Frankie Dettori kept the five-year-old close to the front and took up the running three furlongs out.

She is joined by Alexander Goldrun and the two fillies fight tooth-and-nail to the line.

It takes a photograph to separate the pair before Ouija Board is finally awarded her sixth Group One victory.

Frankie Dettori performs his trademark flying dismount to celebrate.

She showed real guts, she put her head down and really battled. It was a really emotional win.

This has been the race of the year.

1. Prince of Light (J Fanning) 9-2
2. Metropolitan Man (M Dwyer) 15-2 Fav
3. City of Troy (R Moore) 15-2
8 ran. Dist: �l, nk

Prince of Light, running for the second time this week, holds off the field for another victory for Yorkshire-based trainer Mark Johnston.

Jockey Joe Fanning gives Prince of Light a typically Johnston-like ride - winning from the front. Three times it looks as if the horse is going to get caught but each time he finds a little more.

Johnston is likely to win the leading trainer award at Glorious Goodwood for the sixth time.

"Many of ours make the running and my view is that the best way to win races is completing the distance in the fastest time."
Winning trainer Mark Johnston


1330 Vodafone Stakes1m 3f

3. Beau Nash (M J Kinane) 14-1
12 ran

Jockey Jimmy Fortune grabs his third successive win at Goodwood after taking the final two races on Friday.

He guides Numeric through an open channel alongside the rail and holds off New Guinea and Beau Nash in a tight finish.

"The gaps opened up for us and we got lucky. He's very lazy and takes a bit of stoking but he got there in the end today."
Winning jockey Jimmy Fortune
