Slica Bay, Sea Suite and Ben Nevis line up for the Brighton Mile this afternoon, live on Sky Sports Racing. <h3>3.30 Brighton - Silca Bay and Sea Suite fancied for Brighton Mile</h3><p>Silca Bay and Sea Suite feature among a field of nine for the <em>Sapporo Japanese Premium Lager Brighton Mile Challenge Handicap</em> on the opening day of the Festival of Racing at Brighton.</p><p><strong>Silca Bay</strong> arrives on the back of a narrow Newmarket success last month and should improve having scored with more than the winning margin would suggest. His trainer Eve Johnson Houghton has landed the past two renewals too.</p><p><strong>Sea Suite</strong>, twice a winner this year, has finished runner-up on his previous two starts and could continue to hold his form despite another 4lb rise in the weights. Ceren Fallon regains the ride for James Owen, whose team is on an upward trajectory at present.</p><ul><li><strong><a href="https://www.skysports.com/racing/news/12040/13569200/prix-rothschild-blue-bolt-confirms-superiority-over-precise-in-deauville-group-1">Blue Bolt confirms superiority over Precise at Deauville</a></strong></li><li><strong><a href="https://www.skysports.com/racing/video/28461/13569169/jim-crowley-retiring-jockey-looking-forward-to-beginning-training-career">Crowley 'looking forward' to kickstarting training career</a></strong></li></ul><p><strong>Glen Nevis</strong> drops in grade, while course and distance victor <strong>Play Me</strong> warrants respect for Jim Boyle and Donagh Murphy. Having had a wind operation following two disappointing efforts since switching to Oli Rix, <strong>Here I Bow </strong>goes for top honours off a mark of 80.</p><h3>6.40 Yarmouth - Dubai Charm and Dowman contest trappy nursery</h3><p>Dubai Charm and Dowman contest a trappy edition of this <em>Strawberry Fields Stud Nursery Handicap</em> at Yarmouth.</p><p>Top weight <strong>Dubai Charm</strong> represents Richard Hughes and Neil Callan and looks to hold excellent claims. A dominant winner at this track and trip twenty-eight days ago, she looks capable of stepping up on that form and this daughter of Blackbeard might be tough to beat.</p><widget id="1"></widget><p><strong>Dowman </strong>finished strongly when opening his account over this trip at Windsor back in June and has his first start having undergone a gelding operation. An opening mark of 73 looks fair and he can go well under Billy Loughnane, who is chasing winners as he attempts to land the jockeys' championship for the first time.</p><p><strong>Beauty Box</strong> makes her handicap debut with a hood added, while <strong>Wait Geordie</strong> ran with credit in the <em>Super Sprint Stakes</em> at Newbury and cannot be ruled out.</p><h3>6.10 Yarmouth - Lady Of Hay and Speed Of Sound headline</h3><p>Lady Of Hay and Speed Of Sound headline ten runners for a competitive <em>British Stallion Studs EBF Maiden Fillies' Stakes</em> at 6.10pm.</p><p>Richard Spencer's <strong>Speed Of Sound</strong> has run two cracking races in defeat, finishing a close third on debut at Newmarket before chasing home Sorrengail in a warm event at Ascot. That form should be good enough to win a race, and he will be popular under Saffie Osborne.</p> <widget id="2"></widget><p><strong>Lady Of Hay</strong> made a pleasing debut when sixth at Newbury on racecourse debut last month and her trainer Andrew Balding reaches for a hood. A half-sister to the useful Anna Swan, she should be sharper for that initial experience and rates a big danger.</p><p><strong>Babzini </strong>and <strong>Minkaas </strong>complete the shortlist, with the latter hampered when going well on her first start for TJ Kent last time out.</p><h3>Best of the rest</h3><p>Back at Brighton, recent winners <strong>It's Life</strong> and <strong>Buckland Belle</strong> clash in the <em>Monty Bennetts 18th Birthday Handicap</em> (4pm) before attention shifts Stateside to the Saratoga's Grade 1 <em>A. P. Smithwick Memorial Handicap Hurdle</em> (6.10pm). <strong>Fil Dor</strong> and<strong> McTigue</strong> line up here, alongside <strong>Roja Redemption</strong>.</p>
