UK Horse Racing Tips: Brighton

It took JENSON BENSON 13 attempts to get off the mark on turf, but his recent C&D success was gained in a determined enough manner to suggest he can be a key player in his bid to follow up off just 2lb higher. Haveagobeau remains on a workable mark and will be a big danger if the rain holds off, while the in-form Launceston is unexposed at this trip and merits a betting check given his yard's healthy record at Brighton.
Prediction : 1st Jenson Benson 2nd Haveagobeau 3rd Launceston

QUEENS BANDIT wasn't given a hard time when third behind an easy winner at Wolverhampton and the daughter of Lope Y Fernandez, who was sent off favourite, is fancied to build on that introduction to get off the mark at the second time of asking. Son Of Light and Taranis are the pick of the rest with experience, while Tough Decision has a likeable pedigree and is an interesting newcomer to consider.
Prediction : 1st Queens Bandit 2nd Son Of Light 3rd Taranis

Birkie Boy has been in good form in Jersey over the summer and, as a previous course winner, he is dangerous to underestimate. However, that form is hard to equate and a betting check is advised where he is concerned. KING OF THE DANCE is more straightforward to assess and the recent Ffos Las winner boasts the most convincing profile, with Isobelle Chalmers notably claiming 7lb from the saddle. Rainbow Sign and South Kensington tend to go well here and they complete the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st King of The Dance 2nd Birkie Boy 3rd Rainbow Sign

STINTINO SUNSET has held her form well and gained a deserved win at Bath. A 4lb rise still leaves the consistent mare on a workable mark and she could again be tough to resist. Bug Boy won over C&D early last month and must be taken seriously having only received a 1lb nudge up the ratings. Basilette is another reliable type to consider, while Charles Morin is one to monitor in the betting on his debut for a new yard.
Prediction : 1st Stintino Sunset 2nd Bug Boy 3rd Basilette

BERNING HOT proved her C&D success in August wasn't a fluke when beaten less than a length on the all-weather at Lingfield. In a contest where the majority of the field are out of form, Michael Attwater's filly appears to be the safest option. King David has been running with credit here recently and a switch of headgear from blinkers to a visor may be a positive move. Others to note are The Organiser and Burford Beauty.
Prediction : 1st Berning Hot 2nd King David 3rd The Organiser

MY MATE MACKLEY got the better of Candy Warhol in an apprentice event here last week and there doesn't appear to be any reason why the runner-up would reverse the form on this occasion. Valadero won a classified event here two starts ago and ran with plenty of credit at Yarmouth when turned out just over a week later so he completes the shortlist along with Beach Partee.
Prediction : 1st My Mate Mackley 2nd Candy Warhol 3rd Valadero

Roman Spring seeks a hat-trick under a 5lb penalty for scoring over C&D last week and the six-year-old commands the utmost respect. However, the vote goes to DIOMED SPIRIT. Chris Gordon's charge has been in fine fettle of late and bids for a third C&D success after going up 4lb for the latest of those. Sandown third Zoustar Dreams heads the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Diomed Spirit 2nd Roman Spring 3rd Zoustar Dreams
