15.30 Brighton: Class 5 Handicap, 7f - Siouxperhero: Scored hat-trick in July, up in thr weights and found out for class in better race lto. This more realistic however record over 7f poor. Up against off top weight here.
Footstepsintherain: Better on All-Weather so far and no win on turf. Tumbling down the weights and best seasonal performance of career lowest mark over 7f at Leicester lto. Staying on nicely late finishing best of all from off the pace. Ground should suit and Brighton could well suit too.
Waseem Faris: Trip is a worry but slipping down the weights to a very workable mark. Step up in trip will have to rejuvenate him though.
Bayleyf: Convincing success from the front over CD last time out. Remains very competitive under penalty. Might not have his own way this time though.
Fiftyshadesofgray: Not disgraced in recent starts but also didn't set world alight. Only win came in maiden company. This is easier than most of races he did contest on. Cheek pieces will have to bring out improvement. Not impossible with weight for age allowance in favour.
Royal Connection: Last poor run down to ground. Die well in recent weeks from more or less similar marks largely over 7f. Won over CD in July. Consistent and chance.
Shifting Star: Veteran who was in fine form in the last couple of weeks. On a high enough mark though and won't find this easy.
Verdict: Good chance for the 3yo on the weights, I'd prefer Royal Connection for the fact that he is consistent and is sure to be in the mix. But the filly is not a world beater and needs to improve from a mark that she found difficult to finally overcome. Most interesting is Footstepsintherain. He was improved last time out from a career lowest mark and stayed on really well while not being advantaged racing off the pace. He has an obvious chance off the same mark here, with Brighton likely to provide the right test for him. --- Footstepsintherain @ 6/1 Coral - 3pts win
