Tip for this race
All today's tips ›Rogers Dream is our selection at Brighton, and she is every bit as good as the best on figures, level with Deep Sleep on 70 while holding the edge for her progressive profile and fitness. That combination is valuable in a Class 6 ten-furlong contest on good ground, where a sharper, improving type can pick up an opponent who is merely holding his form. Deep Sleep is the chief danger on identical figures, while Delusional is only two pounds behind and Port Darwin, five lighter, also has to be respected. Rogers Dream looks the most likely to put it all together, and she is the pick.

Gihan Arnolda 0/9
Rogers Dream is our pick on profile: third last time out, and a winner two starts back, she returns after 24 days with experience of both today's trip and the going. Carrying 135 lb from draw 10, her main question is the weight, but the consistency stands out.

George Wood
James Owen 9/52
Our top-rated runner at 70 and ranked first of 11, Deep Sleep has run over today's trip and going before, and a 38-day break offers a fresh start from stall five off an official 60. The risk is plain: he's winless in his last six, finishing eighth last time out.

Tom Marquand
Tony Carroll 2/35
Delusional signed off with a third last time out and has run over today's trip and going before, while our rating of 68 ranks him third of 11 and sits well above his official 60. The one concern is a 90-day absence, and he's yet to win in his last five starts.

Rob Hornby
Charlie Johnston 5/48
Port Darwin has a win four starts back and has run over today's trip and going, while our rating of 65 ranks him fourth of 11 and makes him a live threat off a 25-day break. The main risk is his form of late, a sixth last time out and an eighth before that.

Jack Dace (5)
Jim Boyle 1/13
Haveagobeau has been consistent, finishing a fourth last time out, a third two starts back, and a winner four starts back, and he's back quickly after nine days with experience of today's trip and going. Carrying 130 lb from stall seven, he's rated 56 by us, eighth of 11, which hints at limits.

Fizzy Bear is yet to win in his last six, though a third two starts back and a fourth three starts back show he's competitive, and he has run on today's going; a sixth last time out and 129 lb from stall three leave him a midfield sort, with our rating of 62 ranking him fifth of eleven.

Celebrating Ethel arrives in good heart after a second last time out and a win two starts back, and she has run over today's trip and going, but 47 days off and a modest record before that temper the case. Our rating of 56 ranks her seventh of 11, drawn two.

Paddy Bradley

Third last time out and a winner three starts back, she's fresh from a quick nine-day turnaround and has run over today's trip and going, though a sixth and a ninth in the last six hold her back. Our rating of 58 ranks her sixth of 11, from draw 9.

Thundering Breeze is winless in her last five, though a third last time out and a second five starts back show she can be competitive. She has run over today's trip and going, but 44 days off and a yard managing 1/25 make her hard to fancy, and our figures rank her ninth of 11.

Winless in his last six, Twilight Guest was only eighth last time out and has finished no better than fourth in that spell, so he is hard to fancy at the foot of our ratings (ranked eleventh of eleven). On the plus side, he has run over today's trip and going and is back quickly after nine days.

Kaaress is hard to fancy, winless in her last six and unplaced last time out after a seventh and a ninth before that, though a fourth four starts back is her best finish. She has run over today's trip and going, and our figures rank her tenth of eleven.
