Newsboy's horse racing selections for Wednesday's five meetings, including Brighton Nap

POP DANCER can prove a big hit for punters in the Starsports.Bet Handicap (6.00) over five and a half furlongs at Brighton.

A two-time course and distance winner, the eight-year-old came good after an 18-race losing streak, making all to comfortably land a five-runner Goodwood handicap 18 days ago by half a length over the minimum trip.

Undulating tracks suit Tony Carroll’s gelding, and a third win on the Sussex Downs course looks on the cards as he takes a drop in class.

Later on the same card, DEVASBOY has had an even longer gap in between victories, his last being at Chester nearly three years ago.

But despite the wait, the six-year-old has the opportunity to score a second course and distance success in the Download The Star Sports App Handicap (7.30) over a mile.

He ran well at Chepstow last week on fast ground over seven furlongs, running on strongly under Tom Marquand in the closing stages to finish third of 13, a length and a half behind Ravenglass.

And the fact trainer Michael Appleby has booked the same jockey again to ride him is a bonus.
