Super Hit (19:50 Brighton — Class 6 Handicap, 1m 2f)
A five-year-old trained by James Owen, Super Hit arrives here in the form of his life after landing a nine-runner handicap at Epsom on 1 July at 9/1, winning over the same 10f trip on good ground. That was a career-best performance and crucially, Epsom and Brighton share similar characteristics — both undulating, both with a downhill section — so the experience of winning at Epsom translates well here.
Christian Howarth, who partnered him to that Epsom win, retains the ride and has a 100% record on the horse. Drawn in stall 6 of 7 with the high draw favoured at Brighton, everything lines up nicely.
Verdict: Back to win — fresh from a career best, ideal draw, and a track that suits his style. 7/4 looks fair.
