Place at least the target as Goal reaches milestone

Goal will net a century of starts at Uttoxeter on Sunday where he is reunited with regular partner and newly turned conditional Brodie Hampson.

The eight-year-old Goal scored under the then amateur Hampson at Southwell in February for her terminally ill father Mark, nine days after the rider had recorded an emotional victory on Jennys Surprise in the Royal Artillery Gold Cup in the same colours.

Mark Hampson lost his battle against cancer in May after which Goal won a selling handicap on the Flat at Brighton in August shortly before trainer Sally Randell handed in her licence to join forces with her partner Fergal O'Brien.
