This is the Star tip for Tuesday racecard at Brighton

William Haggas' Kinswoman can come good in the Download The Star Sports App Maiden Stakes over six furlongs on a Tuesday card at Brighton.
The Cheveley Park-owned and bred filly is the Press Association pick.

She had been placed in all four runs to date, snipping down the losing margin the last twice when gaining more experience.
Over-enthusiasm has perhaps hampered her, but there is clear ability in the bloodline as she is a half-sister to six winners – including Group horses Audience and Esquire.
Jack Channon has his string in great form and Banksman can notch complete his hat-trick in the Star Sports Handicap.
Beaten a short head over this course and distance at the start of the month, he has since rattled up wins at Yarmouth and Lingfield.
He has to carry a 6lb penalty for the latter of those and while that will make his life tricky in a tight four-runner affair, in low-grade racing it usually pays to side with those runners in form.

Elsewhere, Stardinia can get off the mark at the third time of asking in the Compton Beauchamp Fillies' Restricted Novice Stakes at Newbury.
She is by first-season sire Starman – who is making a great name for himself in his second career – and has already shown form worthy of winning a race such as this.
On her debut in what look an ordinary run of the mill affair at Leicester she had the misfortune of bumping into Clive Cox's Coppull.
That form has subsequently been well franked, as despite being an unconsidered 66-1 chance in the Coventry Stakes last week Coppull finished a fine third.
Stardinia has run at Ascot since in quite a valuable affair and while she was only fifth, the form is pretty solid.

In the British Stallion Studs EBF Fillies' Novice Stakes it is Eve Johnson Houghton's Mystic Moment who catches the eye.
The Time Test filly has run twice to date and been the runner-up both times, coming home a length and three quarters behind the winner on her debut at Kempton in May.
Her next run was a switch to turf at Goodwood earlier in June, where she progressed to go down by just a neck over the same six-furlong trip.
She now steps up in trip and considering her dam stayed a mile and a half, she should have no concerns with seeing out an extra furlong at Newbury.

Arne Slot makes HUGE Richard Hughes contract demand

Liverpool are still in the midst of a landmark summer transfer campaign. The Reds have spent close to £300m since winning the Premier League title on new players. Florian Wirtz, Hugo Ekitike, Milos Kerkez, Jeremie Frimpong, Giovanni Leoni and Giorgi Mamardashvili have all come through the door for the champions. 🔴 Shop the LFC 2025/26 adidas home range Shop the LFC Store 🚨2025/26 LFC x adidas range🚨 LFC x adidas Shop the home range today! LFC x adidas Shop the goalkeeper range today LFC x adidas Shop the new adidas range today! And to balance the books, sporting director Richard Hughes has also overseen the departures of several first-team players. 🔴 That list is headed by Luis Diaz and Darwin Nunez - while Jarell Quansah, Ben Doak, Caoimhin Kelleher, Tyler Morton, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Nat Phillips have also left. Konate future uncertain But Liverpool are by no means done. We could see Alexander Isak arrive as the club's new No9 before the window is out - although Newcastle have not yet agreed to release their star striker. Marc Guehi is another who could arrive - with the Crystal Palace captain out of contract in 2026. Part of the reason that Liverpool are interested in the England international is that Ibrahima Konate is in the same boat. Under contract until 2026, Liverpool are unsure whether the France defender will be at the club next season. Arne Slot wants to keep Konate Accordingly there have been suggestions that the 26-year-old could either be sold this summer or else replaced by Guehi on a Bosman in 2026. However according to a new report in Defensa Central, Liverpool are NOT giving up on Konate - and Arne Slot in particular is doing all he can to ensure the title-winning stopper stays. 'Arne Slot has asked his directors for an extra effort to prevent the Frenchman from leaving Anfield,' the report reads. Konate signed for Liverpool back in 2021 from RB Leipzig but has only come into his own as a bonafide top-class player in the last 12 months or so. © IMAGO Konate's sizeable contract demands He earns around £140k per week on his current contract - and it's been reported that he wants £200k per week to renew. Of course Real Madrid can not only offer a blockbuster salary but also a sizeable signing-on fee - estimated at €18m. The financial lure is strong but the indications are that Slot is asking his club to pull out all the stops to prevent Konate from leaving.

Brentford reject bid worth up to £40m from Newcastle for Yoane Wissa

Newcastle United have seen an improved bid for forward Yoane Wissa rejected by Brentford. The proposal was worth £35million plus £5m in difficult-to-achieve add-ons but turned down. Brentford sources, speaking on the condition of anonymity as they were not authorised to discuss the situation, have stressed that the club have not provided a target price to any team. Advertisement Wissa wants the move to St James's Park. The Athletic reported on July 22 that Brentford rejected a £25m proposal from Newcastle for the 28-year-old, who scored 19 Premier League goals in the 2024-25 season. Nottingham Forest also had a bid rejected for the DR Congo international in July, having previously had an approach rebuffed in January. Wissa returned from Brentford's pre-season training camp in Portugal to hold face-to-face talks over his future with the Brentford hierarchy. He did not play in pre-season and was absent from the squad for their opening fixture of the Premier League campaign against Nottingham Forest, which ended in a 3-1 defeat. Newcastle turned their attentions to Wissa after cooling their interest in Frankfurt striker Hugo Ekitike, who eventually joined Liverpool. Newcastle have missed out on several striker targets this summer in addition to Ekitike, including Joao Pedro, Liam Delap (both Chelsea) and Benjamin Sesko (Manchester United). Their pursuit of a front man comes amid Alexander Isak's desire to leave, with the Sweden international saying on social media on Tuesday that his relationship with the club 'can't continue.' Wissa, who joined Brentford from French side Lorient in 2021, has another year on his contract, and the Premier League club hold an option to extend his terms for a further 12 months. Brentford have had a summer of major change, with head coach Thomas Frank departing the club to join Tottenham Hotspur alongside three members of his backroom coaching staff. Meanwhile, captain Christian Norgaard joined Arsenal and 20-goal forward Bryan Mbeumo completed a transfer to Manchester United. Mbeumo and Wissa scored 39 of Brentford's 66 goals in the top-flight last season. Wissa has recorded 49 goals and 13 assists in 149 appearances for Brentford. Spot the pattern.

Hope for Serie A clubs as Man United aim to sell five players

Manchester United aim to sell five players before the end of the summer transfer window, including three targets for Serie A clubs. The Manchester Evening News reports that Manchester United hope to sell Alejandro Garnacho, Jadon Sancho, Antony, Tyrell Malacia and Rasmus Hojlund before the end of the summer transfer window on September 1. Manchester United aim to sell three Serie A targets COLUMBIA, SOUTH CAROLINA – AUGUST 03: Jadon Sancho #25 of Manchester United moves the ball against Liverpool during a pre-season friendly match at Williams-Brice Stadium on August 03, 2024 in Columbia, South Carolina. (Photo by) Many of those players have been linked with a move to Serie A in the summer transfer window. Several media outlets have claimed that Sancho has rejected an offer from Roma, but Football Italia sources understand that the English winger has only put talks with the Giallorossi on hold. The signing of Leon Bailey could even be favourable to Roma, given that the Aston Villa loanee is a close friend of Sancho. Roma have a full agreement with Manchester United and Sancho's representatives over agent fees, according to our transfer expert Alfredo Pedullà.

The Rossoneri have sent an intermediary to negotiate with the striker's father, but have also submitted an offer to sign Victor Boniface from Bayer Leverkusen. Last but not least, Malacia has been linked with a move to Roma, but Besiktas are also reportedly interested in the Manchester United outcast.
