Goodwood's Sunday racing - picture special by Malcolm Wells

Normality is gradually returning to our lives - and a day out at Goodwood is among things that many people have missed during the various lockdowns.

The latest fixture at which members were welcome was Sunday afternoon's fixture, which comes in the middle of a run of three Friday evening meetings. Normally the Sunday event is a big charity and family raceday and although it was lower-key this year, with a maximum of 4,000 racegoers allowed, it was still an enjoyable afternoon on the Downs with plenty of absorbing racing to watch. Photographer Malcolm Wells was there to capture the action and you can see his pictures on this page and the ones linked.
