Good Luck <ok>
 
The 16:30 at Brighton, a Class-4 Handicap over 1m on good ground, is a particularly tricky event, with several runners holding decent chances. I'll go for Cobalt Blue in this, who has a squeak to run well. High draw (13) is OK, distance and form OK too. Enough said, just a sporting punt on a dull sort of day, for a bit of interest. Jack Mitchell rides for the Roger Varian yard.

You might get the 4/1 at time of writing, if you shop-around a bit! :emoticon-0100-smile

You won't be forgiven if No 2 wins at 11/2 (from a low draw)

Lost by a neck to a 40/1 shot. Good Grief, such is horseracing! <yikes>

No worries in that regard, Ron. Although that 'jackass' of a winner had a low draw in (2), generally speaking, a high draw in 1m races at Brighton is usually advantageous.
