16:06 – Matchbook Betting Exchange Supporting UK Racing Handicap
Race Details: 5f | Class 5 | Going: All races +2yds) (Good, good to soft in places (rail movements) | | flat
This is a tight little 3yo sprint where there doesn’t look much margin for error, and Brighton’s sharp 5f can easily turn it into a track-position race. London Is Blue is the obvious starting point after a string of solid efforts and arrives as the clear market leader, but he does have to concede weight all round. Havana Jag keeps knocking on the door and has the best Topspeed figure in the field, while Shining Guest is another who comes here in decent nick off a workable mark. My Mate Mackley is also entitled to respect after winning recently and following up with a fair placed effort. It’s not a deep race, but it is a trappy one, with a short-priced favourite against several rivals who are close enough on recent evidence to make this interesting.
Top Selections
1. London Is Blue – 15/8 with Bet365
Jockey: Marco Ghiani | Trainer: Robert Cowell | Form: 0-4202 | Rating: 80 | Topspeed: 61
He’s the one I keep coming back to. Robert Cowell’s colt has been running well in defeat, and that recent second suggests he’s ready to cash in if things fall right. The form string of 0-4202 shows a horse holding his level consistently, and in a race where a few of these are exposed to one another, that reliability counts for plenty. Yes, top weight of 135 asks a question around Brighton, but Marco Ghiani is a positive booking and this isn’t exactly a vintage Class 5. At 15/8, he’s not a giveaway, but he still looks the most likely winner if reproducing his latest effort. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Havana Jag – 5/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Liam Wright | Trainer: John Gallagher | Form: 444233 | Rating: 81 | Topspeed: 77
If you want the each-way angle in a six-runner race, Havana Jag makes plenty of appeal. He’s been admirably consistent without quite getting his head in front, but those recent placed efforts read well enough in this company and that Topspeed mark of 77 is the best on offer here. He’s also nicely treated at the weights with just 121 to carry, and there’s a solid chance he gets the right run of things from stall 3. John Gallagher’s sprinter doesn’t look like one who’ll throw in a shocker, and available at 5/1, he rates a sensible alternative to the favourite for those looking beyond the obvious. Bet: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
London Is Blue is the straight win play because he brings the most dependable recent form and sets the standard despite top weight. For an each-way punt, Havana Jag looks the value at 5/1 given his consistency and strong speed figure. Shining Guest and My Mate Mackley are the obvious dangers if the favourite underperforms, but the main focus is win on London Is Blue and each-way Havana Jag.

16:36 – Bet £20 Get £40 In Free Bets At matchbook.com Restricted Maiden Stakes (Bands C/D) (GBB Race)
Race Details: 6f | Class 5 | Going: All races +2yds) (Good, good to soft in places (rail movements) | | flat
This is only a four-runner maiden, but it does look fairly straightforward on paper. Norfolk Blue sets the standard by some margin on official figures and, more importantly, arrives with a string of solid efforts in better company than this. Inspectre is the lightly-raced one who could improve most from just two starts, while Muchacho and Twilight Baby have at least shown enough to suggest they are not complete no-hopers if the favourite underperforms. Even so, this is not a deep contest and the shape of it says the market leader should take plenty of stopping. Around Brighton, tactical positioning over 6f matters, but sheer established ability may be the deciding factor here, and Norfolk Blue has a clearer body of form than the rest.
Top Selections
1. Norfolk Blue – 4/7 with Bet365
Jockey: Marco Ghiani | Trainer: William Knight | Form: 442525 | Rating: 77 | Topspeed: 75
Norfolk Blue is hard to oppose in a race like this. He has been knocking on the door without getting his head in front, but those recent figures are a lot more solid than anything his three rivals have managed and an official mark of 77 gives him a notable edge in this field. The Topspeed figure of 75 underlines that he has already run to a level good enough to win an ordinary restricted maiden, and dropping into a four-runner Class 5 should suit. At 4/7 he is no giveaway, but he does look the most likely winner by some way and this may finally be his opening. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
Betting Strategy
Keep it simple in a race of this size. Norfolk Blue is the clear win bet and looks the one with the fewest questions to answer. There is no each-way angle in a four-runner contest, so chasing value elsewhere feels forced. If you want a danger, Inspectre is the one most likely to improve past exposed form.

17:06 – #matchbooklovesracing “Confined” Handicap (For Horses Who Have Not Won A Race In 2026)
Race Details: 1m 1f | Class 6 | Going: All races +2yds) (Good, good to soft in places (rail movements) | | flat
This is not a deep Class 6 by any means, but it does look the sort of race where one or two arrive with obvious claims against a bunch of largely exposed types. Makes Me Wonder sets the standard on recent form after going close last time and is rightly prominent in the market, while Jenson Benson also comes here off a solid second and has the benefit of a handy draw. Oh So Audacious keeps threatening to get involved without quite finishing the job, and Thundering Breeze has bits of form that make him dangerous if things fall right. Brighton’s undulations can find a few of these out, so track position and attitude late on should matter plenty. Tricky enough beneath the head of the market, but the likeliest winner may still be hiding in plain sight.
Top Selections
1. Makes Me Wonder – 3/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Taryn Langley | Trainer: David Simcock | Form: 244-82 | Rating: 67 | Topspeed:
Makes Me Wonder looks the percentage call. That latest second stands out in this company and, more broadly, his profile is far less ragged than many of these. He is one of the few in the line-up arriving in consistent nick, and an opening mark of 67 in this grade does not look beyond him at all. Simcock’s runner has the feel of a horse who should be winning one of these confined handicaps sooner rather than later, and 3/1 is fair enough given the weakness in opposition. If he handles Brighton’s quirks and gets a sensible trip from stall 8, he holds strong claims of finally getting his head in front this year.
Bet: WIN
2. Oh So Audacious – 13/2 with Paddy Power
Jockey: Saffie Osborne | Trainer: Jack Jones | Form: -84944 | Rating: 62 | Topspeed: 48
Oh So Audacious is not an easy horse to trust, but he does make each-way appeal in a race lacking depth. Those recent figures of 4-4-4 tell their own story: he is running well enough, just without landing the decisive blow. The mark of 62 gives him a fighting chance, and his Topspeed figure of 48 is perfectly respectable in this field. Saffie Osborne is a positive booking for a horse who may need delivering late, and if this turns into the usual Brighton scrap in the straight, he is one I can see sticking on better than some of the shorter-priced rivals. At 13/2, he looks the sensible each-way punt.
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Makes Me Wonder is the win bet and the one to keep simple; his recent second is the clearest piece of form on offer. Oh So Audacious is the each-way alternative at a workable price in a 10-runner race with three places on offer. Jenson Benson is the obvious danger after his own runner-up effort, while Thundering Breeze is one for wider perms.

17:40 – Follow Matchbook On X Handicap
Race Details: 1m 3f | Class 6 | Going: All races +2yds) (Good, good to soft in places (rail movements) | | flat
This is a modest Class 6, but not an awful one for the grade, with several arriving in workable form and very little between the principals on figures. Highland Harvey sets the standard on consistency after a string of solid efforts, while Clipsham Noble has the best recent topspeed number and comes here after another honest run. La Trinite is knocking on the door from a good draw, and Fitzmaurice looks the type to keep sneaking into the argument off a light weight. Gretna Dreams has a bit to prove after failing to build on earlier promise, while Bug Boy looks up against it despite attracting one notable vote. It feels more a race for the dependable stayers than any lurking improver, and tactical positioning round Brighton will matter.
Top Selections
1. Highland Harvey – 7/2 with Bet365
Jockey: Darragh Keenan | Trainer: Gihan Arnolda | Form: 521333 | Rating: 67 | Topspeed: 50
Highland Harvey is the one I want on side because he brings the most reliable recent profile into the race and doesn’t need much more than his usual level to go very close. Those last three third-place finishes tell their own story: he keeps putting himself in the race and holding his form together. An official mark of 67 is fair enough in this company, and he shares top rating in the field. From stall 3, Keenan should be able to get him into a handy rhythm round here, which is often half the battle at Brighton. At 7/2, he looks the percentage call in a race where solidity counts for plenty. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. La Trinite – 6/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Charles Bishop | Trainer: Neil King | Form: 69-233 | Rating: 65 | Topspeed: 55
La Trinite makes plenty of each-way appeal because the recent sequence of 2-3-3 suggests this mark is well within range and a race of this nature should suit. He has been edging towards a win without getting the job done, but there is little wrong with that level of consistency in this grade, especially with a topspeed of 55 that stacks up nicely against most of these. Stall 1 could be a help if Bishop can hold a position and save ground, and there’s enough evidence now that 1m3f is playing to his strengths. Available at 6/1, he looks the value alternative to the market leaders and a sound each-way punt. Bet: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Highland Harvey is the win bet on the strength of his consistency and solid handicap mark. For an each-way option, La Trinite makes more appeal than most given his recent placed efforts and useful draw. Clipsham Noble is the obvious danger on his figures, while Fitzmaurice also enters the conversation if building on that latest second.

Race Details: 7f | Class 6 | Going: All races +2yds) (Good, good to soft in places (rail movements) | | flat
This is a modest little Brighton handicap rather than a deep one, and the market has understandably latched on to a couple with recent solid form. Shes Got The Blues arrives in better nick than most after a win and two placed efforts, while King David looks the obvious older horse after going close last time and now dropping into a race where plenty have questions to answer. Letsbeatsepsis is capable on his day but comes here after a below-par seventh, and Rainbow Sign is the sort who keeps knocking on the door without always finding much off the bridle. With nine runners and Brighton’s idiosyncrasies in play, this is no penalty kick, but it does look likely to revolve around the two at the head of the market.
Top Selections
1. Shes Got The Blues – 15/8 with Bet365
Jockey: Silvestre De Sousa | Trainer: Tony Carroll | Form: 541133 | Rating: 63 | Topspeed: 56
She is the one arriving with momentum, and in a race packed with exposed types that counts for plenty. The recent string of 541133 tells its own story: she is holding her form well and running to a consistent level, while her rating of 63 still looks workable given how solidly she has been competing. Silvestre De Sousa is the sort of booking that catches the eye in this grade too, especially around a track where positive, decisive riding matters. At 15/8 she is not a hidden gem, but she is the most persuasive option in the field and looks hard to oppose if repeating her latest efforts. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. King David – 3/1 with Paddy Power
Jockey: Saffie Osborne | Trainer: Gay Kelleway | Form: 478952 | Rating: 68 | Topspeed: 59
King David makes plenty of appeal as the each-way alternative because he brings the best official mark and topspeed figure in the line-up, and his latest second suggests he is coming to the boil again. He has not been the easiest to catch right over the summer, but that last run was much more like it and this level of contest is certainly within range for a horse rated 68. Saffie Osborne is a good fit for this sort of race and if he can get across smoothly from stall 7, he should be in the right place to strike. Available at 3/1, he is short enough for win purposes against an in-form favourite, but still solid each-way material. Bet: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Shes Got The Blues is the straight win play, simply because she is the progressive one in a race full of familiar limitations. King David is the each-way option with three places on offer, bringing stronger raw figures than most and a recent return to form. The obvious danger is Letsbeatsepsis if bouncing back, while Rainbow Sign could nick a place again without being entirely trustworthy for the win.

18:45 – Streamline Supports The Martlets Hospice Handicap
Race Details: 6f | Class 5 | Going: All races +2yds) (Good, good to soft in places (rail movements) | | flat
This is a compact six-runner handicap, but it is not lacking in intrigue. Serenity Dream arrives seeking the hat-trick after back-to-back wins and is the obvious starting point, especially as Tony Carroll’s runner looks to have hit a real vein of form. Tattie Bogle is the classier profile on figures, though, carrying a lofty mark for this grade and bringing solid recent placed form into a race that may not take much winning. Station Bar is less exposed than most and gets the 3yo allowance, which makes him interesting from stall 1, while Dion Baker and Shaw Park are seasoned handicappers capable of making this tactical. It is a winnable Class 5 rather than a deep one, and the pace setup could be crucial.
Top Selections
1. Serenity Dream – 13/8 with Bet365
Jockey: Jack Doughty | Trainer: Tony Carroll | Form: 856211 | Rating: 79 | Topspeed: 68
Serenity Dream is hard to oppose after putting two wins together and doing so in the manner of a horse who has finally found his level. The latest form figures tell the story: he was knocking on the door before getting his head in front, and confidence can count for plenty in a small-field sprint like this. Off 79 he is not obviously thrown in, but neither does he look badly treated if reproducing that current level. Jack Doughty knows him now, and from draw 3 he should get a clean sight of things. At 13/8 he is short enough, but still the percentage call in a race lacking depth.
Bet: WIN
2. Station Bar – 13/2 with Bet365
Jockey: Charles Bishop | Trainer: Eve Johnson Houghton | Form: 468154 | Rating: 77 | Topspeed: 76
Station Bar makes plenty of each-way appeal for a yard that can place one neatly in this sort of sprint. He is the only 3yo in the line-up, gets in here with just 128, and his Topspeed figure of 76 is actually the best in the field, which immediately gives him a squeak if this turns into a proper test at the trip. His recent fourth was no disaster, and the earlier win shows he does know how to finish the job when things fall right. From stall 1, Charles Bishop should be able to hold a handy position, and 13/2 looks fair in a six-runner race where one or two of these are thoroughly exposed.
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Serenity Dream is the solid win play on current momentum and looks the one most likely to run his race again. For an each-way punt, Station Bar appeals as the unexposed alternative with a useful weight pull and strong Topspeed credentials. Tattie Bogle is the obvious danger if bouncing back from his latest run, while Shaw Park is not without interest for those respecting the tipster angle.

19:15 – Streamline Taxis – Always Going The Distance Handicap
Race Details: 5f | Class 5 | Going: All races +2yds) (Good, good to soft in places (rail movements) | | flat
This may only be a six-runner sprint, but it is far from a gimme. Diomed Spirit arrives in the best recent nick and is the obvious one to beat after a win and a second, while Mr Cool is thriving too and comes here on the back of another success for the Johnston yard. Ancient Times has the joint-highest rating in the field and is well drawn in stall 1 if bouncing back from a lesser run, while Bona Fortuna has bits of solid form without looking straightforward. Brighton’s sharp 5f can punish hesitation, so track position and early pace should be decisive. It is not a deep race numerically, but there are enough in-form handicappers here to make it a proper little puzzle rather than a penalty kick.
Top Selections
1. Diomed Spirit – 13/8 with Bet365
Jockey: Saffie Osborne | Trainer: Chris Gordon | Form: 636212 | Rating: 88 | Topspeed: 77
Diomed Spirit is hard to oppose on what he has been doing lately. That 636212 sequence tells the story of a horse holding his form really well, and he comes here as the runner with the strongest recent profile in the line-up. He is effectively top-rated, gets in off just 118, and stall 2 looks workable around this quirky track. Saffie Osborne knows how to ride a sharp 5f, and this fellow has been giving the impression another race of this nature is well within reach. At 13/8 he is no giveaway, but he is the one with the fewest questions to answer. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Ancient Times – 5/1 with Bet365
Jockey: George Wood | Trainer: Harry Eustace | Form: 0-0129 | Rating: 88 | Topspeed: 79
Ancient Times looks the value angle if you want to play against the favourite. The nine-year-old ran well enough in his two starts prior to that last-time-out ninth, and his Topspeed figure of 79 is the best on offer here, which matters in a race likely to be decided by sharpness rather than stamina. The inside draw could be a real asset at Brighton if George Wood gets him rolling early, and he is another sitting on a mark of 88. He is not bombproof, but at 5/1 he makes more each-way appeal than some of the more obvious rivals in a race where a clean break could change everything. Bet: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Diomed Spirit is the solid win play given his recent consistency and handy racing weight. For an each-way punt in this six-runner field with two places, Ancient Times makes most appeal from stall 1 at a fairer price. Mr Cool is the obvious danger after his latest win, while Bona Fortuna is capable of getting involved if reproducing his better efforts.
