We take kids on train (from Fishersgate) but they are both 9. The trains in to Brighton from the west can be as busy as the ones to Falmer. On the way home you will need to queue at Falmer AND Brighton to get home. Shouldn't be too long a wait at Brighton unless they have either under filled a train or cancelled one. They do both these things pretty much every week.
If you're going for the train make sure he is ok in crowds, ok in queues and has had a wee before you leave.
Might be worth seeing if there is a Seagull Travel coach from your way. Though you will pay extra it will pick you up, drop you to the door of the Amex and get you home again without queuing. Graduate to the train if you are going with a group or when he can handle the above.
Is the bridge car park open again?
If you can allow more time, and don't want to be in a large crowd with him, you could catch the 2 to Brighton, and then the 25 to Falmer.
Do the 700 along the coast accept the travel vouchers as they are quick and very frequent to Churchill Sq.
Go to the park and ride at the racecourse. He'll love going on the bus!
You'd probably want to get there by 2ish so he can have a bit of a wonder around the ground beforehand. That's what I'd do anyway.
