Gherkin

3.333333
10/3(+33%)
(4) Gherkin 10/3, C&D winner. Fourteen runs since last win in 2022 but went close at Bath under Hollie Doyle in August. Respectable sixth of 12 in handicap at Kempton (6f) 15 days ago and eased another 2 lb since. Player.
On a handy mark; helps to give connections, who also run Notre Maison, a good hand.

Off a handy mark and with Hollie Doyle on board, GHERKIN could well record a second C&D win. Second choice is Malham Tarn Cove.

LTO Selection:

14:10 Brighton Stakes (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

The clear form pick is the twice-raced SEAX who ought to be capable of winning a race of this nature based on his opening Ascot effort.

Two promising efforts on soft ground, including second at Thirsk; leading player on form.

(4) Cowboy Stuff 125/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Eighth of 13 in novice at Chelmsford (7f, 66/1) 7 days ago. Has plenty to find on form.
Has the worst chance on form.
LTO Selection:

14:45 Brighton Stakes (Class 4) 8f Race Class Flow

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

ZAYINA was four lengths clear of the third when she took a step forward from her debut effort at Beverley to finish second at Pontefract. If the daughter of Zarak can continue going the right way, then she could be the one to beat. Castle In The Sand sets the standard with a rating of 85 and it's hard not to see him involved in the finish, while Show Biz Kid could also get competitive.

A repeat of the form CASTLE IN THE SAND showed when second at Thirsk will likely see him get off the mark now stepping up to 1m. Geroge Boughey's Zayina can fill the forecast spot ahead of Crimson Road.

Quite an open contest, with most of the runners having possibilities. CRIMSON ROAD gets the percentage call, ahead of Gregorina.

Successful under Hollie Doyle here (1m) two starts ago; likely player if staying 1m2f.

Has done his winning at 7f/1m; record over 1m2f isn't fully convincing.
LTO Selection:

15:20 Brighton Handicap (Class 6) 10f Race Class Flow

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

Trainer Gay Kelleway loves a winner here and Habanero Star, third on her last two starts over C&D and a winner off this mark as recently as March, is hard to ignore. She can go well but may have to give way to CHAGALL on this occasion. A headstrong sort who can pull too hard, the booking of Tom Marquand catches the eye and, if he can settle him early on, he could come out on top. He's Our Star is another to consider.

A few with chances but GILBERT rates just the pick of the weights so is taken to edge out in-form duo Chagall and Habanero Star who can chase home Adam West's 4-y-o in that order. Local Bay completes the shortlist.

Back down in trip on his first run since wind surgery, GILBERT may well record a second course win. Habanero Star is second choice.

Ran respectably upped to 1m2f last time; just one win since 2018.
LTO Selection:

15:55 Brighton Handicap (Class 6) 10f Race Class Flow

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

Gary Moore has won this twice since 2018 and, if Decisive Call can repeat his September C&D second, he won't be far away at the finish. CHINTHURST looks the likelier winner after going down by a neck here last time out, which saw him raised 2lb by the handicapper. However, he races off his old mark here which has to give him a great chance. Sun Festival is another for the shortlist.

CHINTHURST was clear of the remainder when runner-up here last week and can open his account. Sun Festival and Send In The Clouds look the likeliest dangers.

Provided he confirms the form of last week's C&D effort, CHINTHURST (nap) has a leading chance. Silver Bubble is second choice.

Fair efforts in her only three attempts over this far and those don't look good enough.
LTO Selection:

16:30 Brighton Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

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

OPTIVA STAR hadn't got his head in front until his first appearance here three starts ago and Richard Hannon's gelding now bids to maintain his unbeaten record at this venue. The step up to a mile last time appeared to yield further improvement and a fourth win on the bounce may well be on the cards. Magic Memories is entitled to build on his handicap bow when fourth at Windsor in August, while Poetic Force appeals most of the remainder.

OPTIVA STAR is on a roll and fancied to defy a further 4 lb rise in the weights and complete his four-timer. In-form course scorer Macs Dilemma rates a big threat though, with the lightly-raced Magic Memories and handily-weighted Shoot To Kill also well in the mix in this open handicap.

Having come first and second over C&D at the start of September, OPTIVA STAR and Poetic Force can come to the fore again.

LTO Selection:

17:05 Brighton Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

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

FACT OR FABLE has been mostly running with credit over the past couple of months and the six-year-old, who wasn't quite at his best at Bath last time, is capable of being very competitive off this mark, especially following a neck defeat at Chepstow in August. Done Decision is expected to be in the mix after his latest runner-up effort at Chelmsford. Roscioli and Mumayaz are others worth considering.

DONE DECISION was strong at the finish when second at Chelmsford a week ago and, if the race doesn't come too soon, he could go one better at the possible expense of Mumayaz. Roscioli is also worthy of consideration.

Turned out quickly, DONE DECISION has a good chance of opening his account. Bonkersinabundance is second choice.

This drop back in trip is worth exploring and the first-time headgear may also help.

Return to turf looks a negative, having failed to score in this sphere since 2019.
LTO Selection:

17:40 Brighton Handicap (Class 5) 5f Race Class Flow

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

On Edge carries a 5lb penalty in his search for a fourth victory on the bounce and the drop back in trip from his last couple of efforts at Salisbury and Windsor is unlikely to be an inconvenience. However, he may have to play second fiddle to recent C&D winner BATCHELOR BOY, who returned to form here recently and is capable of backing that performance up. Fifty Year Storm has been performing consistently well of late and may have more to offer in first-time cheekpieces.

ON EDGE had something in hand when completing the hat-trick at Windsor earlier this month and can extend his winning run. Recent C&D winner Batchelor Boy is feared most whilst Fifty Year Storm is also of interest..

The suggestion is PUFFABLE, who may take advantage of a handy mark with Tom Marquand booked. Second choice is Fifty Year Storm.

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.
