3:00 Brighton (9th September) Free Horse Racing Tips

An EBF Maiden Stakes over 6f 209y on good to soft ground. Eight two-year-olds take part: all colts bar one filly. Most juveniles are lightly raced in a field which features two debutantes. William Haggas has been in tremendous form this season and his youngsters have hit the ground running. Our Channel was fancied to go well on debut at Carlisle but a combination of inexperience and insufficient trip saw this son of English Channel staying on in eye-catching fashion, beaten by a couple of lengths. This American-bred colt was a breeze-up purchase for £33,000, racing in the silks of Abdulla Al Mansoori. This April foal will come on for that first start and enjoy this stiffer test of stamina on better ground. What really adds to the worth of this juvenile's hope is that Haggas has a superb statistical edge in a field where few look to pose any real threat. I would suggest that this horse, which has been as big at 3/1 on the exchanges, should be priced about 11/8. It would be no surprise to see him backed to favourite and an obvious chance to taste victory.
