13:30 Brighton Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

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

First-time blinkers seemed to provide the missing ingredient for MY GENGHIS when he kept on well to score over 6f at Wolverhampton and, with excellent apprentice Jack Doughty retaining the ride, a 2lb higher mark might not be enough to prevent the five-year-old from following up. Tommytwohoots, who is 6lb well-in after his surprise heavy-ground success at Nottingham, is feared most, with the well-handicapped Lady Nagin also a key player.

TOMMYTWOHOOTS escapes a penalty for last week's convincing Nottingham win so his follow-up claims appear to be bright. Fellow last-time-out winner My Genghis is the obvious danger, though Marcus is likely to bounce back from a rare poor run at Southwell.

His overall record is too inconsistent for comfort but TOMMYTWOHOOTS showed again last week how well he can go on heavy ground.

14:05 Brighton Stakes (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

RORY ROCKET showed promise to finish second on both of his previous starts and having already proven himself capable of handling cut in the ground, the son of Aclaim is presented with a decent chance of coming out on top. Mini Mac was a length and a half behind the selection in third at Bath last week and, entitled to be wiser, can make his presence felt. Pickering Castle is another going the right way and also warrants consideration.

MINI MAC's debut wasn't devoid of promise and sure to know more this time, he might find the necessary improvement to see off the likes of Pickering Castle and Rory Rocket.

Given the heavy conditions and when bearing in mind he got loose before the start, MINI MAC made a positive debut at Bath.

14:40 Brighton Stakes (Class 4) 8f  Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

SUPER MIRAGE impressed, despite running green, when he made a winning debut at Bath and a penalty is unlikely to cause too many issues as this potentially useful son of Arizona bids to follow up. Something of a surprise winner at Yarmouth, Far From Dandy was still eyecatching enough to suggest he can also be a player here. Great David and Bear Island appeal most of the rest with experience, while Pure Tenacity is an interesting newcomer.

FAR FROM DANDY clearly derived plenty from his debut when a ready winner at Yarmouth a month ago, value for extra to boot, and on that evidence, he's up to defying a penalty. Super Mirage was also well on top when successful at Bath so he must be considered a threat, with Great David another to note.

The ground is a grey area for GREAT DAVID but the same is true for a few in here and the selection should really have won at Bath.

15:15 Brighton Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

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

ESCAPE ACT has been competing in higher-grade handicaps than this since scoring on soft going at Doncaster in July. He remains relatively unexposed and a bold bid is anticipated from the son of Mehmas back at this level. Ardbraccan has more to find off his current mark, but could still have a say in the outcome returning to this lower grade. On Song tends to save his best for this track, although his success here in August came over a shorter trip.

Lots with chances but ARDBRACCAN rates the pick at these weights and is taken to gain a deserved success. Darvel captured this prize in 2022 and seems sure to go well once more, while On Song and Profit And Loss need considering too.

It might be worth siding with DARVEL, who won this race in 2022 and is only 1lb higher than for for success at Bath this spring.

15:50 Brighton Handicap (Class 6) 10f Race Class Flow

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

A winner at Leicester in July, LITTLE TIGER followed that success with a decisive victory over C&D on last week's return to action. He is penalised for that, but is due to be raised a further 6lb in the future and the hat-trick beckons for William Stone's inmate. Fighting Poet usually goes well here, although he was no match for the selection last time and Fullforward may pose a bigger threat, despite a 5lb penalty for his recent triumph over 1m4f here.

LITTLE TIGER ran out a comfortable victor over C&D last week and a 5 lb penalty doesn't look sufficient to prevent him from bagging a third success of 2024. Chourmo is always to be feared round here and is next on the list with course scorers Fullforward and Fighting Poet also shortlisted.

This can go to the progressive 4yo LITTLE TIGER, who won by 7l over C&D last week and is 6lb well in under a penalty.

16:20 Brighton Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

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

OTAGO wasn't at his best last time but the son of Cable Bay, a multiple C&D winner, is expected to bounce back. Jim Boyle's gelding landed the corresponding event off 1lb higher 12 months ago and, with conditions to suit, this looks a winnable opportunity. Romanovich remains in good form but does have a bit to prove on ground as testing as this is likely to be, so Voodoo Ray could be the bigger threat.

ROMANOVICH is enjoying a very good season and taken to garner a fourth victory on the back of his very good recent second here. Otago is feared most in his bid to follow up his success of 12 months ago with Ceilidh and Voodoo Ray in the picture too.

Preference is for ROMANOVICH (nap), who has won two of his last five runs and found more progress when a close second here last time.

16:55 Brighton Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

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

A chance can be taken on PORFIN, who finds himself on a workable mark following a handful of below-par efforts on the all-weather. Softening ground conditions should be no barrier to success and, in a race lacking much depth, he could represent some value. World Of Darcy seems to have turned a corner and merits the utmost respect having recorded a comfortable success at Windsor on Monday. That said, a 12lb penalty will undoubtedly make things tougher. Newcastle scorer Tomorrow Day heads the remainder.

WORLD OF DARCY has a 12 lb penalty to overcome but arrives in rare form so is fancied to rattle off his hat-trick at the chief expense of Fai Fai who rates next best at these weights. Newcastle victor Tomorrow Day and C&D winner Porfin also merit plenty of respect in the battle for minor honours.

After a spiralling fall from grace WORLD OF DARCY has got his mojo back and clearly loves this ground.

About U.K Horse Racing

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. It is a jump racing event that is known for its challenging course and has become a national institution in the UK. 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.
