14:10 Brighton Handicap (Class 5) 5f - 7 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	7 1st (7) (10/3 +5%) Marching Mac	3.333333 10/3(+5%)	(7) Marching Mac 10/3, Course winner. Winner here in September. Good second of 10 in handicap at Bath (5f, soft, 16/1) 7 days ago. Can make presence felt if going to post. Engaged 5.45 Yarmouth Monday. Won at Brighton last month, then ran well last week; fourth 5:45 Yarmouth Monday.
2	1 2nd (1) (2/1 +43%) Secret Handsheikh	2 2/1(+43%)	(1) Secret Handsheikh 2/1, Four-time C&D winner, the latest gained here in September. 7/1, fourth of 6 in handicap at Sandown (5f, good) 20 days ago. Solid chance. Last four wins over C&D, the most recent on penultimate outing; possibilities.
3	2 3rd (2) (9/2 +25%) Little Miss Magic	4.5 9/2(+25%)	(2) Little Miss Magic 9/2, Winner at Bath in August. Good third of 8 in handicap at Windsor (6f, good, 17/2) 22 days ago. Live each-way chance. Sole start under Alfie Redman resulted in Bath success in August; interesting.
4	3 4th (3) (13/2 -136%) Recon Mission	6.5 13/2(-136%)	(3) Recon Mission 13/2, Twenty-three runs since last win in 2022 but went very close to snapping his losing run in a 5-runner handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW) 47 days ago. Remains on a good mark and he has to enter calculations. On a long losing run but went down by only a whisker on latest start.
5th	4 5th (4) (7/1 +72%) Revenue	7 7/1(+72%)	(4) Revenue 7/1, C&D winner. Tongue strap on for 1st time, eighth of 12 in handicap at Bath (5.7f, soft, 50/1) 7 days ago, finding little. Has work to do. Won in May during a consistent spell; form dipped in last three runs.
6th	6 6th (6) (22/1 +12%) Mary Of Modena	22 22/1(+12%)	(6) Mary Of Modena 22/1, C&D winner. Fourth of 5 in handicap (33/1) at Lingfield (6f, AW) 27 days ago. Others make more appeal. Good chance granted a revival, being well treated on two pieces of C&D form.
7th	8 7th (8) (16/1 -33%) Lochaber	16 16/1(-33%)	(8) Lochaber 16/1, 7/1, eighth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 8 days ago and, unless the refitting of a visor sparks a return to form, he will likely come up short once more. Has frame possibilities judged on penultimate effort (fourth at Brighton).

14:10 Brighton Handicap (Class 5) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Denied by the narrowest of margins at Lingfield last time out over 5f, RECON MISSION may be winless since July 2022 but this appeals as an ideal opportunity. Another bold showing looks assured and the veteran is preferred to Windsor third Little Miss Magic, as well as Secret Handsheikh, who is a real course specialist boasting figures of 4-8 over track and trip.

SECRET HANDSHEIKH has scored in good style on his last two visits to this course and John Gallagher's charge is taken to add another C&D success to his tally. Recon Mission deserves to get his head in front and is feared most on the back of his Lingfield near miss and Little Miss Magic should also be on the premises. Marching Mac will also be a threat if sidestepping Monday's Yarmouth engagement in favour this assignment.

Being an interesting contender with Alfie Redman back on board, LITTLE MISS MAGIC is preferred. Secret Handsheikh is second choice.

14:40 Brighton Handicap (Class 6) 7f - 14 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	6 1st (6) (15/2 +53%) Majestic Heights	7.5 15/2(+53%)	(6) Majestic Heights 15/2, Creditable fifth of 12 in nursery at Bath (8f, good to firm, 16/1) 23 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. Edging down the weights but he's finished no better than fifth across his three nurseries.
2	4 2nd (4) (17/2 -31%) Havana Club	8.5 17/2(-31%)	(4) Havana Club 17/2, Havana Gold gelding who is proving consistent whilst seemingly having little in hand from this sort of mark, good third of 12 in nursery at Chelmsford City (7f, 4/1) 10 days ago. Step up in trip may well help moving forward. Has made the frame on all three nursery starts and he could be involved.
3	3 3rd (3) (7/2 +36%) Me Tarzan	3.5 7/2(+36%)	(3) Me Tarzan 7/2, Lightly-raced maiden. 5/1, creditable fourth of 12 in nursery at Kempton (7f) 22 days ago, making late headway having been left poorly placed. In good hands and remains with potential at this sort of level. Things didn't go his way when fourth on nursery debut; could get closer to the target here.
4	8 4th (8) (7/2 +22%) Cassandraalexandra	3.5 7/2(+22%)	(8) Cassandraalexandra 7/2, Career best when off the mark over 6f (soft) here on penultimate start. Not in same form when eighth of 12 in nursery at Kempton (7f) 22 days ago but a return to this venue can likely she her bounce back. Soundly beaten at Kempton (AW) last time but progressive in nurseries here previously.
5th	11 5th (11) (22/1 -267%) Samujana	22 22/1(-267%)	(11) Samujana 22/1, Offered little all 3 starts in turf maidens at 6f to date. However, in top hands so foolish to rule out improvement now handicapping from a basement mark with blinkers enlisted. Market confidence behind her would look significant. Has shown very little but she's with a top Newmarket trainer and has basement opening mark.
6th	2 6th (2) (15/2 +38%) Holbrook	7.5 15/2(+38%)	(2) Holbrook 15/2, Back on track with blinkers enlisted when fifth of 9 in nursery at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 15 days ago, suited by strong pace. Now his task is to back that up. Didn't run badly when fifth on second nursery start but needs to raise his game.
7th	5 7th (5) (50/1 -150%) Galette	50 50/1(-150%)	(5) Galette 50/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Seventh of 9 in nursery (12/1) at Chelmsford City (6f) 10 days ago, in rear and never a threat. Needs to pull out more stepping back up in trip. Encouraging third in Bath maiden on third start but down the field in two nurseries since.
8th	1 8th (1) (7/2 -17%) Kilteel	3.5 7/2(-17%)	(1) Kilteel 7/2, Offered little first 3 starts but much improved to open her account in 7-runner nursery at Newcastle (7.1f) 3 weeks ago. Has to merit respect from 4 lb higher mark now she's up and running. Won on nursery debut on AW; major player if transferring her improvement back to turf.
9th	10 9th (10) (18/1 -50%) Mount Of Gold	18 18/1(-50%)	(10) Mount Of Gold 18/1, Creditable fourth of 12 in nursery at Bath (8f, good to firm, 22/1) 23 days ago. Can give a good account again on that evidence. Has made the frame in 1m nurseries the last twice; could benefit from the drop back to 1m.
10th	7 10th (7) (50/1 -100%) Rationale	50 50/1(-100%)	(7) Rationale 50/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Last of 13 in novice at Chelmsford City (7f, 250/1) 10 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time. Makes handicap debut. Hasn't shown much but trainer won this two years ago with a well-backed nursery newcomer.
11th	14 11th (14) (100/1 -300%) Zouzenda	100 100/1(-300%)	(14) Zouzenda 100/1, Well held all 3 starts in maidens, including in a visor at Wolverhampton last time. Cheekpieces go on for nursery debut but others rate much stronger. First-time cheekpieces for nursery debut but hard to fancy on what she's shown thus far.
12th	13 12th (13) (33/1 -136%) Pathetic Fallacy	33 33/1(-136%)	(13) Pathetic Fallacy 33/1, Nearer last than first in trio of quick-fire sprint maidens back in June. Given a break ahead of handicap debut and the step up in trip ought to be in her favour judged on pedigree. Another best guided by the betting. One to watch in the betting on nursery debut but she's shown very little thus far.
13th	12 13th (12) (150/1 -500%) Comedy Star	150 150/1(-500%)	(12) Comedy Star 150/1, Has showed more temperament than ability on last 2 starts, hanging badly left after 2f when last of 10 in novice at Kempton (6f) 13 days ago. Hood goes on for handicap debut. The hood could help on nursery debut but has to leave previous form miles behind.
14th	9 14th (9) (25/1 -25%) Shadow River	25 25/1(-25%)	(9) Shadow River 25/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 150/1, seventh of 11 in maiden at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 17 days ago. Progress required if she's to feature on nursery bow. Down the field so far but this half-sister to 5 winners makes nursery debut off lowly mark.

14:40 Brighton Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Now that the penny has dropped for KILTEEL after a determined success on her nursery debut at Newcastle last month, there is likely to be plenty more improvement forthcoming and she can overcome a 4lb rise. Me Tarzan shaped with promise when keeping on from off the pace to grab fourth at Kempton latest and he is a key player, along with Samujana and Cassandraalexandra.

KILTEEL showed much-improved form when opening her account at Newcastle 3 weeks ago, seeing off another handicap debutant in the process and she looks to hold sound claims from a 4 lb higher mark in her follow-up bid. Me Tarzan, who wasn't seen to best effect on his latest outing at Kempton, course-winner Cassandraalexandra and another nursery debutante Samujana are others to consider.

Preference is for CASSANDRAALEXANDRA who displayed progressive form here prior to a below-par run on last month's AW debut.

15:10 Brighton Maiden (Class 5) 8f - 11 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	2 1st (2) (5/4 +33%) Dalmally	1.25 5/4(+33%)	(2) Dalmally 5/4, Thrice-raced colt. Third of 16 in maiden at Chepstow (7.1f, good, 11/4) 43 days ago. Has the form to play a big part. Placed on all three starts and holds strong form claims.
2	12 2nd (12) (4/1 -60%) Twilight Moon	4 4/1(-60%)	(12) Twilight Moon 4/1, Thrice-raced filly. Best effort when second of 9 in maiden (22/1) at this course (7f, soft) 29 days ago, no match for winner. May well do better and one to take seriously. Runner-up over 7f here (soft) last month; further improvement needed, but possible.
3	4 3rd (4) (7/1 +42%) Epimeteo	7 7/1(+42%)	(4) Epimeteo 7/1, Foaled April 12. Time Test colt. Closely related to 1¼m/11f winner Prometeo and half-brother to useful winner up to 7f Out of Shadows. Dam unraced. Likely to improve for today's debut outing but entitled to respect in view of his pedigree.
4	5 4th (5) (9/2 +36%) Gold Hill	4.5 9/2(+36%)	(5) Gold Hill 9/2, Foaled April 9. 12,000 gns yearling, Golden Horn colt. Half-brother to 2-y-o 7f winner Thunder Max. Dam, maiden (stayed 1½m), half-sister to smart winner up to 1¼m Circumvent. Interesting newcomer. Half-brother to 7f 2yo winner Thunder Max (RPR 85); betting could be informative on debut.
5th	10 5th (10) (33/1 -136%) Westlain	33 33/1(-136%)	(10) Westlain 33/1, Foaled April 9. 2,000 gns yearling, Ribchester gelding. Half-brother to several winners, including useful 1¼m winner Hulcote and 1¼m-2m winner Mark of Gold. 2,000gns yearling; a watching brief may be the best option on debut.
6th	9 6th (9) (22/1 -38%) The Kamikaze King	22 22/1(-38%)	(9) The Kamikaze King 22/1, Once-raced colt. 16/1, eighth of 10 in maiden at Wolverhampton (7.2f) on debut 17 days ago, hampered. Displayed some ability on debut; open to improvement but others have more pressing claims.
7th	8 7th (8) (150/1 -275%) Sydney Whistler	150 150/1(-275%)	(8) Sydney Whistler 150/1, Once-raced gelding. 150/1, tenth of 12 in novice at Bath (8f, soft) on debut 7 days ago. 150-1, always behind on last week's debut at Bath (1m, heavy).
8th	3 8th (3) (6/1 -50%) Dapper Gee Gee	6 6/1(-50%)	(3) Dapper Gee Gee 6/1, Twice-raced gelding. Eighth of 11 in maiden at Yarmouth (8f, good to firm, 9/2) 19 days ago. Better effort on debut but likely still more needed. Went close on debut at Chepstow and fast ground may not have suited at Yarmouth last time.
9th	1 9th (1) (25/1 0%) Batman's Boy	25 25/1(0%)	(1) Batman's Boy 25/1, Once-raced gelding. 16/1, sixth of 7 in maiden at Hamilton (8.3f, good) on debut 16 days ago. Hard to make a case for. Well beaten on last month's debut at Hamilton and significant improvement is needed.
10th	6 10th (6) (200/1 -506%) Rath Celtair	200 200/1(-506%)	(6) Rath Celtair 200/1, Foaled March 3. Gustav Klimt gelding. Dam maiden (stayed 12.5f). First foal; dam unplaced Flat (RPR 56) and jumps; may be best watched on debut.
11th	7 11th (7) (250/1 -279%) Skip Happens	250 250/1(-279%)	(7) Skip Happens 250/1, Once-raced gelding. 125/1, last of 10 in maiden at Sandown (5f, soft) on debut 25 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Tailed off at 125-1 on last month's debut at Sandown (5f, soft).

15:10 Brighton Maiden (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

A major improver when keeping on in second over 7f here last month, TWILIGHT MOON is bred to improve for going up to a mile and she may be able to strike with Kaiya Fraser taking off a useful 3lb in the plate. Over a length behind the reopposing Dapper Gee Gee (second) when third at Chepstow last time out, Dalmally was much too keen from the front on that occasion and better is expected now.

A low-grade maiden. TWILIGHT MOON likely has a bigger performance in her and she can improve past Dalmally. Gold Hill is the interesting newcomer.

The return to slow ground could be a major boost for the recently gelded DAPPER GEE GEE. Epimeteo may be a danger on debut.

15:40 Brighton Handicap (Class 6) 12f - 10 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	5 1st (5) (13/2 -8%) Fullforward	6.5 13/2(-8%)	(5) Fullforward 13/2, Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. 8/1, creditable fifth of 11 in handicap at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm) 36 days ago, slowly away. Looks vulnerable form a win point of view. Running respectable; beaten only 2l when fifth at Windsor last time.
2	6 2nd (6) (7/1 +13%) Cloudy Rose	7 7/1(+13%)	(6) Cloudy Rose 7/1, Three-time C&D winner. 11/2, below form sixth of 10 in handicap at this C&D (soft) 29 days ago. Now 1 lb below last winning mark and she's a must for the shortlist. Three-time C&D winner but latest effort (ran poorly) tempers enthusiasm.
3	1 3rd (1) (7/2 -100%) Fen Tiger	3.5 7/2(-100%)	(1) Fen Tiger 7/2, Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. 9/2, very good second of 10 in handicap at this C&D (soft) 29 days ago and should make a bold bid to go one better. Solid second over C&D last time; fighting chance off last winning mark.
4	7 4th (7) (7/1 +50%) Nostromo	7 7/1(+50%)	(7) Nostromo 7/1, 6/1, below form fifth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (16.6f) 15 days ago. Back down in trip and needs to raise his game. Inconsistent maiden; not sure what to expect.
5th	3 5th (3) (12/1 -71%) Largo Bay	12 12/1(-71%)	(3) Largo Bay 12/1, C&D winner. Respectable fifth of 11 in handicap at Kempton (12f, 11/2) 18 days ago and he's not without an each-way chance. Two wins over C&D in 2022; placed twice here this term; could go well.
6th	2 6th (2) (4/1 +33%) Total Lockdown	4 4/1(+33%)	(2) Total Lockdown 4/1, Unreliable individual. Latest win at Yarmouth in May. Respectable fifth of 15 in handicap (8/1) at Thirsk (12f, good) 22 days ago, slowly away. Probably worth taking on. Quirky sort but ran encouragingly last time (second run for new yard).
7th	10 7th (10) (14/1 +30%) Kimchi	14 14/1(+30%)	(10) Kimchi 14/1, 33/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, fourth of 7 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW) 34 days ago, needing stiffer test. Likely to find a few too good once again. New trip needs to make a difference for this six-race maiden.
8th	4 8th (4) (5/1 -11%) Irezumi	5 5/1(-11%)	(4) Irezumi 5/1, Course winner. One win from 24 Flat runs. Winner here in August. Creditable third of 8 in handicap at this C&D (good, 25/1) 21 days ago, nearest finish. Likely to be on the premises. Raced mostly at Brighton this year; caught the eye last time; respected.
9th	8 9th (8) (40/1 -21%) Roman Tempest	40 40/1(-21%)	(8) Roman Tempest 40/1, Course winner. 40/1, last of 8 in handicap at Kempton (16f) 13 days ago. Back down in trip and he looks set for another struggle. Won off this mark here last October; nowhere near that form since.
10th	9 10th (9) (66/1 -164%) Temur Khan	66 66/1(-164%)	(9) Temur Khan 66/1, Four-time C&D winner. Latest win at Lingfield in July. 50/1, ninth of 11 in handicap at Kempton (12f) 18 days ago. Blinkers back on. Others make more appeal for win purposes. Four C&D wins; has badly lost his form since AW success in July.

15:40 Brighton Handicap (Class 6) 12f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Irezumi wasn't seen to best effect when finishing third over this track and trip last month but, granted a smoother passage this time, he must enter calculations off an unchanged mark. That said, FEN TIGER edges preference. He was narrowly denied in a similar event over C&D latest and, nudged up 1lb, it would be no surprise if he were able to go one place better. Fullforward is another noteworthy contender.

FEN TIGER looks the way to go following his near miss over this C&D. He remains feasibly treated up 1 lb and should have too much for C&D winners Cloudy Rose and Largo Bay, while Irezumi is also worthy of consideration.

On the back of a solid C&D effort, FEN TIGER could well end his losing spell. Irezumi is feared most.

16:10 Brighton Handicap (Class 6) 10f - 10 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	9 1st (9) (17/2 -143%) Little Tiger	8.5 17/2(-143%)	(9) Little Tiger 17/2, 10/1, improved on recent efforts to win 11-runner handicap at Leicester (10f, good), comfortably. Off 94 days but will be a serious player up 3 lb if ready to roll. Off the mark in refitted blinkers at Leicester three months ago; blinds retained.
2	5 2nd (5) (8/1 +33%) Dotties Star	8 8/1(+33%)	(5) Dotties Star 8/1, Bit below form fifth of 9 in handicap at Epsom (10.1f, soft, 13/2) 26 days ago. Capable of a bold show off this reduced mark but others are more appealing all the same. Maiden; well treated on best form, such as second off 5lb higher last October.
3	3 3rd (3) (9/2 +44%) Mrembo	4.5 9/2(+44%)	(3) Mrembo 9/2, Twelve runs since last win in 2023. Visored for 1st time, bit below form third of 9 in handicap at Epsom (10.1f, soft, 9/1) 26 days ago. Down to an attractive mark and she's a key player. Largely consistent this term; placed at Epsom most recently.
4	2 4th (2) (11/4 -47%) Fighting Poet	2.75 11/4(-47%)	(2) Fighting Poet 11/4, Two wins from 6 runs this year. Career best when winning 11-runner handicap (2/1) at this C&D (good) 21 days ago, suited by way race developed. 3 lb rise doesn't appear harsh and he should be in the mix once again. Justified favouritism over C&D last month, taking Brighton record to 131; solid.
5th	10 5th (10) (6/1 +63%) Eljaytee	6 6/1(+63%)	(10) Eljaytee 6/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in May. Sixth of 9 in handicap (14/1) at Epsom (10.1f, soft) 26 days ago. Others look stronger on this occasion. Performed well in both C&D attempts, the more recent in May (won off 1lb lower).
6th	8 6th (8) (18/1 -50%) The Conqueror	18 18/1(-50%)	(8) The Conqueror 18/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in May. 15/2, seventh of 10 in handicap at this course (11.9f, soft) 29 days ago. Back down to last winning mark and he's not without hope. Won off this mark over C&D in May; unsuited by soft ground here last time.
7th	6 7th (6) (8/1 +33%) Ceilidh	8 8/1(+33%)	(6) Ceilidh 8/1, Respectable sixth of 12 in handicap at Windsor (8.1f, good, 14/1) 22 days ago. Up in trip and booking of Callan a plus. Now 2 lb below last winning mark and he's a solid contender. Best effort this year when second over 1m here in June; upped in trip.
8th	1 8th (1) (15/2 -7%) Gallimimus	7.5 15/2(-7%)	(1) Gallimimus 15/2, C&D winner in September. 11/2, bit below form 7¼ lengths fourth of 11 to Fighting Poet in handicap back over this C&D (good) 21 days ago. Only 3 lb better off with that rival now, so he clearly has work to do. Game winner over C&D last month; about 7l behind Fighting Poet here since.
9th	4 9th (4) (66/1 -100%) Bhubezi	66 66/1(-100%)	(4) Bhubezi 66/1, Latest win at Chepstow in June. 28/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW) 64 days ago. Back up in trip and he looks vulnerable. All wins at up to 1m; something to prove back at 1m2f.
10th	7 10th (7) (100/1 -1329%) Reel Power	100 100/1(-1329%)	(7) Reel Power 100/1, Course winner. Creditable fourth of 10 in handicap at this course (8f, good, 18/5) when last seen 13 months ago. Up in trip and blinkers refitted on this debut for new yard. Absent for 400 days and makes debut for new connections; market helpful.

16:10 Brighton Handicap (Class 6) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

The combination of the reapplication of blinkers (retained) and the drop back to this trip saw LITTLE TIGER run out a ready winner at Leicester when last seen and, returning from a break off 3lb higher, he looks the one to side with. A 3lb rise for a recent C&D victory shouldn't prevent Fighting Poet from going well, while Reel Power can also get involved on his debut for a new yard.

Assuming LITTLE TIGER is raring to go following a three-month break he will have every chance of adding to his Leicester success in July. A winner here on two of his last three starts, Fighting Poet looks set for another bold show and he is second choice ahead of Mrembo and The Conqueror.

Judged on his recent course form, FIGHTING POET holds particularly solid claims. Eljaytee is second choice.

1	2 1st (2) (7/2 +71%) Marsh Benham	3.5 7/2(+71%)	(2) Marsh Benham 7/2, Ungenuine type. C&D winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2023. Ninth of 14 in handicap (10/1) at Bath (8f, soft) 7 days ago. Others make more appeal. Recent form includes a couple of third-place finishes over C&D; place claims.
2	3 2nd (3) (11/1 -175%) Poetic Force	11 11/1(-175%)	(3) Poetic Force 11/1, C&D winner. Fifteen runs since last win in 2023. Creditable fifth of 11 in handicap at this course (7f, good, 7/2) 21 days ago, nearest finish. Cheekpieces on 1st time and this 10-y-o could have a part to play. 0-12 this year; chance depends on how well he responds to cheekpieces.
3	1 3rd (1) (9/2 +10%) Roscioli	4.5 9/2(+10%)	(1) Roscioli 9/2, C&D winner. Latest win at Salisbury in August. Respectable fifth of 12 in handicap (9/1) at Epsom (7f, soft) 26 days ago. 1 lb lower and now eased in grade, so there is cause for optimism. Largely consistent in his 1m races this year, winning twice; solid chance.
4	7 4th (7) (22/1 -10%) Rainbow Sign	22 22/1(-10%)	(7) Rainbow Sign 22/1, Two wins from 44 Flat runs. Twenty-four runs since last win in 2022. 33/1, below form sixth of 11 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW) 28 days ago. Back down in trip and will probably find one or two too good once more. On long losing run and yet to win away from Lingfield AW.
5th	8 5th (8) (25/1 +24%) Rivas Rob Roy	25 25/1(+24%)	(8) Rivas Rob Roy 25/1, Four-time C&D winner. Last of 7 in handicap at this C&D (good, 40/1) 21 days ago and he's likely to come up short once more. Six-time course winner but has a question mark over current form.
6th	4 6th (4) (15/8 -15%) Desert Footsteps	1.875 15/8(-15%)	(4) Desert Footsteps 15/8, Promising type. Career best when winning 7-runner handicap at Chepstow (8.1f, good to firm, 13/2) 29 days ago, keeping on well. This unexposed filly will surely be bang there once again off this 6 lb higher mark, provided the forecast slower ground doesn't count against her. Made all at Chepstow last month on handicap debut; open to further progress; respected.
7th	9 7th (9) (66/1 -230%) Disquietude	66 66/1(-230%)	(9) Disquietude 66/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Last of 11 in minor event at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 150/1). Off 110 days ahead of this handicap debut and she needs to take a big step forward. Four duck eggs next to her name; best watched unless the betting speaks positively.
8th	5 8th (5) (7/1 -40%) Lady Ava	7 7/1(-40%)	(5) Lady Ava 7/1, Creditable fourth of 11 in handicap (9/1) at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 15 days ago. Likely to be on the premises. Back in better form the last twice; defied a 6lb higher mark last autumn; interesting.
9th	6 9th (6) (20/1 -150%) Our Papa Smurf	20 20/1(-150%)	(6) Our Papa Smurf 20/1, Fifth of 6 in juvenile hurdle (5/1) at Plumpton (17.8f, good to soft) on NH debut 16 days ago. Significantly back down in trip and cheekpieces on 1st time. Latest effort in this sphere was poor. Inconsistent sort who has something to prove back down in trip.

16:45 Brighton Handicap (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

DESERT FOOTSTEPS took a big step forward when making a winning handicap debut over a mile at Chepstow last month and the three-year-old is hard to oppose on the back of that effort, despite a 6lb rise. Roscioli did not appear the relish the drop to 7f when last seen but is a player based on his previous efforts over this trip, while Lady Ava is the pick of the remainder.

Conditions are unlikely to be as fast here as they were at Chepstow when DESERT FOOTSTEPS made a winning handicap debut last month. However, if conditions prove suitable this unexposed filly is likely to prove too good for these rivals. Poetic Force and Roscioli are taken to fill the places, with Lady Ava also likely to be vying for minor honours.

Chepstow winner DESERT FOOTSTEPS (nap) is taken to show further improvement and follow up. Lady Ava is second choice.

17:15 Brighton Handicap (Class 6) 7f - 9 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	1 1st (1) (4/1 -20%) Kondratiev Wave	4 4/1(-20%)	(1) Kondratiev Wave 4/1, C&D winner. 3 wins from 11 runs this year, the latest at Chelmsford in August. 10/3, respectable third of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW) 47 days ago. Looks competitive on form. Two wins here this year and in good form on AW the last twice; solid claims.
2	2 2nd (2) (8/1 -167%) Blue Collar Lad	8 8/1(-167%)	(2) Blue Collar Lad 8/1, Won 10-runner handicap at Chelmsford City (6f, 7/2) 19 days ago, better placed than most. 2 lb nudge fair enough and he is one of the most likely candidates. Has done very well since joining new yard and he's firmly in calculations.
3	4 3rd (4) (3/1 +33%) Bobby Dassler	3 3/1(+33%)	(4) Bobby Dassler 3/1, One win from 24 Flat runs. Eleventh of 13 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, firm, 28/1) 73 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Laura Mongan and sports a first-time hood. Interesting to see what the market has to say. Check betting on stable debut but he struggled on his last two starts in the summer.
4	8 4th (8) (8/1 +50%) Roman Spring	8 8/1(+50%)	(8) Roman Spring 8/1, Remains a maiden after 20 Flat runs. Ninth of 12 in handicap (20/1) at Windsor (8.1f, good) 22 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time and he looks set for another struggle. Well beaten in share of second two starts ago; down the field since; now 0-20.
5th	5 5th (5) (8/1 0%) Heer's Sadie	8 8/1(0%)	(5) Heer's Sadie 8/1, Three-time C&D winner. Fifth of 7 in handicap at this course (8f, good, 16/1) 21 days ago. Now below last winning mark and it wouldn't be much of a surprise to see his mare involved in the finish. Mixed fortunes here in recent months but this three-time C&D winner is not discounted.
6th	9 6th (9) (33/1 -65%) Lucky Question	33 33/1(-65%)	(9) Lucky Question 33/1, Remains a maiden after 16 Flat runs. 14/1, last of 7 in minor event at this course (9.9f, good to soft) 60 days ago. Significantly down in trip and blinkers back on. Difficult ask. Made the frame on Dundalk AW early this year but unable to get competitive this summer.
7th	3 7th (3) (10/3 +52%) James Park Woods	3.333333 10/3(+52%)	(3) James Park Woods 10/3, Course winner. Below form eighth of 14 in handicap (14/1) at Bath (8f, soft) 7 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Likely to find one or two too good. Poor strike-rate and soundly beaten last time, but won over C&D two starts ago.
8th	6 8th (6) (9/1 -80%) Muy Muy Guapo	9 9/1(-80%)	(6) Muy Muy Guapo 9/1, Remains a maiden after 25 Flat runs. 7/1, creditable third of 9 in handicap at this course (6f, good) 21 days ago, suited by way race developed. Place possibilities. 0-25 but in pretty good form here the last twice and might not be far away.
9th	7 9th (7) (18/1 -13%) Run Cmc	18 18/1(-13%)	(7) Run Cmc 18/1, Irresolute performer. Seventeen runs since last win in 2022. 14/1, last of 13 in handicap at Salisbury (7f, good to firm) 76 days ago, folding tamely. Opposable. Couple of fair runs this summer but tailed off last time and long losing run continues.

17:15 Brighton Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

MUY MUY GUAPO caught the eye when staying on well for third over 6f here three weeks ago and he has to be of interest upped in trip off the same mark. The recent Chelmsford winner Blue Collar Lad is an obvious threat to the selection, while Kondratiev Wave edges out James Park Woods to be best of the rest.

Having slipped to a potentially very handy mark BOBBY DASSLER is of interest on his debut for the Michael Wigham yard. The hint should be taken if this 5-y-o, who is equipped with a first-time hood, is strong in the betting. Kondratiev Wave and Blue Collar Lad both arrive here in good order and are feared most in that order of preference.

The consistent KONDRATIEV WAVE can post his third course win. Blue Collar Lad has done very well since joining Daniel Steele.

Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.

There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.

The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool.

Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.

Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.

In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.

Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
