Brighton

A Brighton specialist with three wins from ten here and a proven track-and-distance winner, but his recent form is patchy and his wins have dried up considerably over the past 18 months. He needs the fast, dry ground that has suited him best — and this normal ground may blunt his chances.

The market favourite has won two on the bounce at Brighton and Chepstow, and carries the best win rate in the field at roughly one in six races. Normal ground at seven furlongs on a course that clearly suits her makes this a perfect opportunity, though she must prove she can handle standard ground after a blank from ten attempts previously.

A genuine Brighton specialist with four wins from eleven races here — the only horse in the field with a proven winning record at this track and distance. However, his recent form is concerning: ninth then second in his last two runs here, and he has never won on standard ground in his career.

The least experienced horse in the field with just one win from eleven races and limited data to work from. At three years old, he is also younger than most rivals here and has shown nothing in recent weeks to suggest he can trouble the favourites.
