1st (5)  (17/2 -55%)Virtue Temperance |
17/2(-55%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Virtue Temperance 17/2, Hung left under pressure when seventh of 8 in novice at Goodwood (6f, good) 10 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Some promise in three 6f runs and looks open to progress dropped in trip on nursery debut. |
|||
2nd (2)  (12/1 -50%)Lady Dorchester |
12/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Lady Dorchester 12/1, 7/1, first run since leaving Dominic Ffrench Davis when seventh of 8 in nursery at Pontefract (6f, soft) 55 days ago. Usual tongue strap back on returned to the minimum trip. Seven-race maiden who was beaten 11l on her nursery debut in July; others preferred. |
|||
3rd (3)  (13/8 +35%)Facoulty |
13/8(+35%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Facoulty 13/8, Promising individual. Fifth of 10 in novice at Lingfield (5f, AW, 12/1) 20 days ago. Shaped well at Yarmouth prior to that and rates a sure-fire improver. Bred to be much better than this mark and needs a close look on nursery debut. |
|||
4th (7)  (11/2 -120%)Pure Liberty |
11/2(-120%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Pure Liberty 11/2, Hooded/tongue strap fitted and first worthwhile form when second of 8 in nursery (22/1) at this C&D (good) 13 days ago. 3 bl rise still leaves her on a lowly mark so she should be involved again. Went very close in a C&D nursery last time and she's a big player if she can back that up. |
|||
5th (1)  (4/1 +33%)Chasing Gold |
4/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Chasing Gold 4/1, Eighth of 9 in novice at Newcastle (5f, 25/1) 65 days ago. Tongue strap on first time and he's a player on his Sandown effort prior to that. Unexposed colt who looks a possible improver with tongue-tie added on nursery debut. |
|||
6th (4)  (9/2 +10%)Watch Blue Point |
9/2(+10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Watch Blue Point 9/2, Thrice-raced maiden. 7/1, last of 11 in novice at Chelmsford City (6f) 18 days ago. Makes handicap debut back at 5f but mark asks for a lot more. Mixed messages in his qualifying runs and is hard to weigh up on nursery debut. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
Pure Liberty was narrowly denied over C&D off 3lb lower recently and she is a leading contender from a low draw, but preference is for FACOULTY. The daughter of Coulsty showed ability in a couple of above average maidens earlier this summer, and was far from disgraced at Lingfield last month. This looks a more suitable opportunity though, and an opening mark of 63 could prove lenient. Watch Blue Point is another to consider.
The Yarmouth race FACOULTY finished fifth in is fairly strong form in the context of this and with improvement likely now tackling a nursery, there's lots to like. Pure Liberty showed a lot more switched to this venue recently and is a threat, along with Chasing Gold.
This looks tricky but it might be worth sticking with PURE LIBERTY who was only just caught in a C&D nursery 13 days ago.

1st (1)  (4/5 +60%)White Chapel Road |
4/5(+60%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) White Chapel Road 4/5, Hit the frame first 2 starts over 6f. Found the going tougher in a better race when eighth of 17 in maiden (22/1) at York (7f, good to firm) 10 days ago but he's back in an easier race here. Sets standard on best form and he had tough task at York last time; key player. |
|||
2nd (4)  (20/1 -25%)Martin The Saxon |
20/1(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Martin The Saxon 20/1, Foaled February 24. €6,000 yearling, Saxon Warrior colt. Dam 5f winner. 6,500euros Saxon Warrior colt; has fair target to aim at and market should guide. |
|||
3rd (5)  (10/3 -105%)Metro Dubai |
10/3(-105%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Metro Dubai 10/3, Decent start when runner-up at Leicester before 15¾ lengths ninth of 15 to Bedtime Story in Chesham Stakes at Royal Ascot (7f). Gelded after and disappointing he didn't fare better at Kempton a fortnight ago. No progress so far but 1m may have stretched him latest and he's respected back in trip. |
|||
4th (3)  (13/2 -117%)Letsbeatsepsis |
13/2(-117%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Letsbeatsepsis 13/2, Promising debut third at Ascot. 13/8, not in quite the same form when third of 5 in maiden at this course (6f, good to soft) 24 days ago. Open to progress, particularly over 7f. Has shown promise in both his runs and he looks a possible improver on this step up to 7f. |
|||
5th (7)  (80/1 -400%)Navarre Special |
80/1(-400%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Navarre Special 80/1, Twice-raced filly. 25/1, sixth of 7 in novice at Lingfield (7.6f, good) 23 days ago. Well held in both runs so far and has plenty to find here. |
|||
6th (2)  (11/1 +45%)Adelaide Bay |
11/1(+45%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Adelaide Bay 11/1, Showed a bit more than on debut when eighth of 10 in maiden at Chelmsford City (6f) 88 days ago but it's still very modest stuff. Well held in two 6f runs in May/June and he needs a transformation at this new trip. |
|||
7th (6)  (28/1 -40%)Raavi |
28/1(-40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Raavi 28/1, 80/1, seventh of 13 in novice at Windsor (6f, good to firm) on debut 21 days ago. Made a low-key start at Windsor (6f) and he needs to leave that form well behind. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
This ought to be a decent opportunity for WHITE CHAPEL ROAD, who posted two solid efforts before a midfield finishing in the typically warm Convivial at York last month. Paul and Oliver Cole's colt sets the standard with an official rating of 80, and is unlikely to encounter a similar calibre of rival here. Metro Dubai receives 2lb from the selection, however, and will appreciate a drop in trip having weakened over the mile at Kempton recently. Letsbeatsepsis can chase the pair home.
LETSBEATSEPSIS failed to build on the promise of his debut at the first attempt here 3 weeks ago but he should come on from that and crucially, this step up in trip is sure to suit. White Chapel Road and Metro Dubai are the obvious dangers.
Preference is for WHITE CHAPEL ROAD who sets the standard and looks a big player back in much calmer waters.

1st (5)  (4/1 +38%)Revolutionise |
4/1(+38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Revolutionise 4/1, Seventh of 9 in handicap (8/1) at Kempton (7f) 13 days ago. Close third at Epsom on penultimate start and a reproduction of that form would put him firmly in the picture. Seven-time AW winner but he was laboured at Kempton last time; risks attached. |
|||
2nd (1)  (7/2 -75%)Dion Baker |
7/2(-75%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Dion Baker 7/2, C&D winner. 3 wins from 19 runs this year. Career best when winning 4-runner handicap at Yarmouth (7f, good, evens) 8 days ago, comfortably. Leading claims under a penalty. Won by 4l at Yarmouth last Sunday and he looks well treated under penalty; major player. |
|||
3rd (2)  (7/2 +30%)Macs Dilemma |
7/2(+30%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Macs Dilemma 7/2, Course winner. Twelve runs since last win in 2023. Respectable sixth of 12 in handicap at Chepstow (8.1f, good, 28/1) 7 days ago. Blinkers back on and he looks vulnerable for win purposes. On dangerous mark and he went close over C&D on penultimate run; in the mix back in trip. |
|||
4th (8)  (9/1 +18%)Poetic Force |
9/1(+18%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Poetic Force 9/1, C&D winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2023. Fourth of 6 in handicap at this course (8f, good, 9/2) 25 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Likely to find one or two too good. Veteran who is 0-10 this year and this looks tough on this drop back to 7f; down the list. |
|||
5th (6)  (7/1 -8%)Vinaka |
7/1(-8%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Vinaka 7/1, 18/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, creditable third of 8 in handicap at this C&D (good) 13 days ago. One to consider off the same mark. Back to form with third over C&D latest and has claims if she can build on that. |
|||
6th (3)  (9/2 +31%)Sir Oliver |
9/2(+31%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Sir Oliver 9/2, Course winner. Last of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, firm, 6/1) 37 days ago. Has dipped to a very attractive mark and he's high on the shortlist. Just one win since August 2022 and he's been well held in last two runs. |
|||
7th (7)  (12/1 -20%)Amathus |
12/1(-20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Amathus 12/1, C&D winner. Respectable third of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, good, 8/1) 84 days ago. Has fallen to a workable mark and he shouldn't be far away. Placed at Lingfield last twice but he was beaten 5l in a Class 6 last time; needs more. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
There looks to be plenty of pace on with Dion Baker, Macs Dilemma and Sir Oliver all likely to race handily, so this could be set up for POETIC FORCE. The veteran has seen his handicap mark decline in recent months, but there were signs of promise over the mile here recently and a drop in trip could hold the key. Vinaka is another to consider.
Having slipped to a potentially very handy mark, SIR OLIVER is taken to strike with Silvestre De Sousa back in the hot-seat. He was a good third off a 14 lb higher mark under De Sousa at Chelmsford during the spring and while he hasn't won on turf for over 2 years, he is effective on fast ground. Dion Baker is an obvious threat on the back of a clear-cut success at Yarmouth and is feared most ahead of Revolutionise and Vinaka.
Top of the list is DION BAKER (nap), who made all for an emphatic win at Yarmouth last Sunday and looks well treated under a penalty.

1st (1)  (11/4 +31%)Gallimimus |
11/4(+31%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Gallimimus 11/4, C&D winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2023. Ninth of 11 in handicap (22/1) at Bath (13f, good to firm) 16 days ago, left poorly placed. Back down in trip. Dropped to a handy mark eased in class. Big shout. Last win was over C&D and he had excuse at 1m5f last time; could be dangerous back in trip. |
|||
2nd (5)  (12/1 -71%)Long Call |
12/1(-71%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Long Call 12/1, C&D winner. 7/1, 10½ lengths fourth of 6 to Irezumi in handicap at this C&D (good) 13 days ago. Veteran who is easy-enough to oppose. 11yo who has been beaten 10l or more over C&D in his last two runs; opposable. |
|||
3rd (4)  (9/4 +59%)Asense |
9/4(+59%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Asense 9/4, Sixth of 9 in handicap at Bath (11.6f, firm, 5/1) 31 days ago. Racked up a hat-trick this time last year but others more persuasive. On dangerous mark but was tailed off last time and needs a major revival back at this trip. |
|||
4th (2)  (15/8 -70%)Irezumi |
15/8(-70%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Irezumi 15/8, Improved on recent efforts to finally shed maiden status in 6-runner handicap (15/2) at this C&D (good) 13 days ago, despite being slowly away. Up 4 lb but this is another handicap lacking depth. Came good with a clearcut win over C&D latest; up 4lb but he's a big player again. |
|||
5th (3)  (8/1 -60%)Red Evelyn |
8/1(-60%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Red Evelyn 8/1, Respectable fourth of 13 in minor event (14/1) at Yarmouth (8f, good) 14 days ago. Up in trip and has career-low mark to work with. Triple AW winner but she's 0-12 on turf and still has stamina to prove at this trip. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
Gallimimus warrants plenty of respect on his best form and he could go well, but IREZUMI is still preferred if he can repeat the level that saw him power home over C&D last month by over three lengths. Upped 4lb for that, he may not even need to find any improvement in this field, with Long Call a tentative suggestion for third.
GALLIMIMUS won a C&D handicap last summer and with his latest Bath run easy to excuse, he's fancied to cash in on a handy mark down in class. Irezumi finally got it right over C&D a fortnight ago and is second choice.
Most of these have something to prove but IREZUMI forged clear over C&D last time and is a big player again if he can repeat that form.

10/3(-21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Hellavapace 10/3, Two wins from 47 Flat runs. Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. Good second of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW, 12/1) 2 days ago. Will be a danger to all if turned out again quickly. 0-16 on turf but she has plenty of form at this track; second at Lingfield on Saturday. |
|||
2nd (1)  (4/5 +36%)Oh So Audacious |
4/5(+36%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Oh So Audacious 4/5, Recorded second C&D success in June. 9/4, creditable second of 10 in handicap at Windsor (8.1f, good to firm) 21 days ago. Major player. Won this race last year and she had a near-miss at Windsor last time; big player. |
|||
3rd (5)  (80/1 -142%)Beautiful Surprise |
80/1(-142%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Beautiful Surprise 80/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2021. Seventh of 8 in handicap (125/1) at Lingfield (8f, AW) 28 days ago. Hopes pinned in the addition of blinkers sparking an unlikely revival. 0-19 since her debut win three years ago and tailed off over this trip in last three runs. |
|||
4th (7)  (11/1 +0%)My Sand Boy |
11/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) My Sand Boy 11/1, Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. 20/1, last of 6 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 62 days ago. Readily passed over. Still a maiden after 17 starts and was last of six over C&D last time; down the list. |
|||
5th (6)  (33/1 -65%)Arlo's Sunshine |
33/1(-65%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Arlo's Sunshine 33/1, Twenty-two runs since last win in 2023. 40/1, fifth of 7 in handicap at this C&D (good) 13 days ago. Likely to find one or two too good. Losing run is up to 22 and was beaten 17l over C&D last time; others preferred. |
|||
6th (3)  (16/1 -129%)Rivas Rob Roy |
16/1(-129%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Rivas Rob Roy 16/1, Four-time C&D winner. 16/1, last of 7 in handicap at this C&D (good) 13 days ago. Needs to bounce back. Six-time course winner but he's lost his way and needs a major turnaround. |
|||
7th (4)  (11/2 -22%)Premiership |
11/2(-22%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Premiership 11/2, Twelve runs since last win in 2023. 10/1, good third of 13 in minor event at Yarmouth (8f, good) 14 days ago, running on. 7 lb below last winning mark and won't be far away if in the right mood. Perked up with an eyecatching third at Yarmouth and has claims back in a handicap. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
Rivas Rob Roy has a good record at this venue, but he hasn't been at his best recently and needs to bounce back to form. Premiership was not disgraced at Yarmouth last time and may prove to be the biggest rival to OH SO AUDACIOUS, who was only beaten a neck into second at Windsor last time out and is looking for her fourth career success.
The consistent OH SO AUDACIOUS looks by far the most solid option and she is taken to get her head back in front following a near miss at Windsor three weeks ago. Hellavapace is 0-16 on turf but he clearly goes well here (placed on four of his previous five visits to Brighton) and is second choice ahead of Premiership.
This can go to last year's winner OH SO AUDACIOUS, who is only 1lb higher than for her near-miss at Windsor last time.

11/4(-22%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Nelson Rose 11/4, C&D winner in August. 4/1, creditable fourth of 11 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f) 15 days ago. Not without hope off the same mark. Won over C&D before a creditable effort behind an improver at Southwell; respected. |
|||
2nd (5)  (7/2 +30%)Alfred Cove |
7/2(+30%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Alfred Cove 7/2, C&D winner. Latest win at Ffos Las in July. 3/1, below form second of 6 in handicap at this course (5.3f, good to soft) 24 days ago. Engaged 5.22 here Sunday. Two wins and numerous seconds this season but well held here yesterday. |
|||
3rd (1)  (15/2 -7%)Voodoo Ray |
15/2(-7%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Voodoo Ray 15/2, Four-time course winner. 3 wins from 6 runs this year, the latest at Bath in May. Eighth of 10 in handicap (16/1) at Lingfield (6f, AW) 11 days ago. Needs to bounce back. Started this season with three wins but he's struggled in his last three runs. |
|||
4th (4)  (2/1 -33%)Bear To Dream |
2/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Bear To Dream 2/1, 9/1, won 7-runner handicap at this C&D (good to soft) 24 days ago, running on. 4 lb rise for that decisive success doesn't appear at all harsh and she's a strong candidate. Back from a break with a convincing win under Kaiya Fraser over C&D last month; key player. |
|||
5th (2)  (11/2 +21%)Batchelor Boy |
11/2(+21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Batchelor Boy 11/2, Four-time course winner. Latest win at Yarmouth in April. Sixth of 8 in handicap (2/1) at Windsor (5.1f, good to firm) 14 days ago, slowly away. 1 lb below the mark of his Yarmouth success and definite chance if able to get back to that level. Made all at Yarmouth in April but he's not hit the same level since; others preferred. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
Voodoo Ray won this last year but has looked in the handicapper's grip since landing a hat-trick at the start of this season, while Nelson Rose scored here last month. It remains to be seen how well BEAR TO DREAM copes with a 4lb rise, but the five-year-old won over course and distance with plenty in hand on her return from a layoff and looks worth sticking with.
The most appealing candidate is BEAR TO DREAM, who did the job well over C&D last time and she should take this 4 lb higher mark in her stride. Batchelor Boy and Nelson Rose are taken to fill the places on the assumption that Alfred Cove, who is due to run here on Sunday, doesn't go to post.
Preference is for BEAR TO DREAM who returned from a break with a comfortable win over C&D last month.

1st (2)  (5/1 -122%)Skallywag Bay |
5/1(-122%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Skallywag Bay 5/1, Fourth of 7 in handicap (10/1) at Nottingham (5f, good) 58 days ago. Remains 3 lb above last winning mark and there's an air of vulnerability about this filly. 0-13 on turf but she's run respectably in her last two runs; shouldn't be far away. |
|||
2nd (3)  (13/2 +0%)Pop Dancer |
13/2(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Pop Dancer 13/2, C&D winner. 9/1, fourth of 5 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 17 days ago. Would be a serious player off this reduced mark if back to his best but it's a big 'if'. Won this off 3lb higher last year and has claims if he can rediscover his spark. |
|||
3rd (1)  (6/5 +4%)Faro De San Juan |
6/5(+4%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Faro De San Juan 6/5, Latest win at Windsor in July. 16/1, creditable sixth of 14 in handicap at Newcastle (5f) 11 days ago, never nearer. Strong chance off 1 lb lower here. Won at Windsor in July and he had some traffic issues on AW last time; respected. |
|||
4th (4)  (8/1 -129%)The Defiant |
8/1(-129%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) The Defiant 8/1, Second of 4 in handicap (6/4) at Lingfield (5f, AW) 6 days ago, going off too hard. Now 1 lb lower and this 8-y-o looks sure to give it a good shot. Losing run is up to 13 but he ran well on AW last time and has possibilities back on turf. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
FARO DE SAN JUAN ran into trouble when launching his challenge at Newcastle and the race was effectively over when finding himself in the clear. He looks worthy of another chance having won in this lower grade at Windsor in July. Skallywag Bay has yet to win on turf, though has a shout on her winning form on the all-weather, while Pop Dancer won this off a higher mark last year and is preferred to The Defiant of the remaining pair.
It was a higher-grade handicap in which FARO DE SAN JUAN was a creditable sixth at Newcastle recently and, with a strong pace likely despite the small field, he is taken to resume winning ways. The Defiant is the clear main danger, with Skallywag Bay a shade too high in the weights at present and Pop Dancer needing to bounce back.
All of the runners have possibilities in this tight contest but FARO DE SAN JUAN gets the vote ahead of Skallywag Bay.
