Brighton Race 6 - Free Race Replays On Attheraces.com Hcp

Five out of the seven declared runners are previous Brighton winners and it looks a competitive line-up. The two-time course winning STARSONG (5) was successful at this meeting last year and showed plenty of ability ten days ago recording a 0.5L second among this company trying 1200m at Pontefract. Top pick. KENTO (2) maintains a consistent profile this season with a course and distance victory during May preceding a trio of placings since including when 8.5L third at this circuit a month ago. Main danger. SECRET HANDSHEIKH (3) enjoys this circuit gaining a triumph four times tackling track and trip. Ran third in this race last year. Every chance. POP DANCER (1) managed to win on three occasions here. Place claims.

Form hard to fault. Comes off a 29 day let-up. Last start got back early 3rd in a small field at this track on July 7 over 1100m, 8 len behind Rory Rocket with 60.5kg at $4. The start before that held ground to the line 3rd of 13 at Windsor on June 29 over 1000m, 1.75 len behind South Shore with 62kg at $17. Best form measures up and he looks a huge chance.

At the latest run ran second last in a small field at Bath on July 15 over 1000m, 3.5 len behind Darkened Edge carrying 62.5kg at $9. Before that raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by 0.5 len at Chepstow June 27 over 1000m defeating Dragon God carrying 61kg at $5. Has ability and is solid top-three hope.

Comes off a 29 day let-up. Most recently 2nd in a small field at this track on July 7 over 1100m, 7 len behind Rory Rocket carrying 58.5kg at $3. The race before that led to the turn then faded 6th of 8 at Newbury on July 2 over 1000m, 6 len behind Truly Glamorous carrying 57kg at $3.80. Thereabouts last time and can sneak into the finish with the right run.
