Last week and this week, Victoria - Pompey services are running as shuttles under 1Zxx between Pompey and Barnham, with Bognor Regis portions running through to/from Victoria. No portion working as would normally be the case.

Why is this? Normally, as you said, they run VIC to Horsham then divide, front portion fast to barnham then onward to Pompey and the rear portion on a stopping service to Bognor

That’s a fairly routine tracksy database error, which gets mentioned every few months…
