UK Horse Racing Tips: Brighton

Notre Maison has hit the crossbar on each of her last three outings over an extended 5f here and she ought to have a say, but she could finish second to HEER'S SADIE. The five-year-old mare filled the runner-up berth over 7f at this track last month and this drop in distance could bring out some improvement, so she is taken to go very close. Moveonup also merits consideration.
Prediction : 1st Heers Sadie 2nd Notre Maison 3rd Moveonup

DAAOYE displayed plenty of promise to finish third at Windsor on debut last month and the son of Dandy Man would have learned a great deal from that experience. He can find normal progression to shed his maiden tag at the second time of asking. The main threat is Wren Officer, who was sent off favourite for her first start at Leicester when finishing fourth. Of the remainder, Seax makes the most appeal.
Prediction : 1st Daaoye 2nd Wren Officer 3rd Seax

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.
Prediction : 1st Zayina 2nd Castle In The Sand 3rd Show Biz Kid

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.
Prediction : 1st Chagall 2nd Habanero Star 3rd Hes Our Star

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.
Prediction : 1st Chinthurst 2nd Decisive Call 3rd Sun Festival

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.
Prediction : 1st Optiva Star 2nd Magic Memories 3rd Poetic Force

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.
Prediction : 1st Fact Or Fable 2nd Done Decision 3rd Roscioli

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.
Prediction : 1st Batchelor Boy 2nd On Edge 3rd Fifty Year Storm
