Win tickets to Goodwood Racecourse’s opening fixture

We’re giving lucky readers the chance to win tickets to Goodwood’s season opener.

On Saturday, May 4, the racecourse stages its first fixture of 2019 – when thousands of racing fans will get their first glimpse of the hallowed turf since last autumn.

It’s the first of 19 days of racing at Goodwood stretching from May to October, including all the usual season highlights like the Qatar Goodwood Festival, the May and August threeday festivals and Three Friday Nights.

The day brings a highquality seven-race card planned and while adults indulge in the on-track action, youngsters will love exploring the children’s play area and dancing to a jazz band and sax quartet on the grass.

Ticket prices start from just £12 in the Lennox Enclosure – for full details and to book, go to www.goodwood.com

But the Observer has joined forces with Goodwood to offer free tickets to five pairs of lucky winners.

To stand a chance of winning one of our pairs, just answer this question: How many days of horse racing are scheduled for Goodwood this year?
