THREE AND EASY

Horse racing tips: Celestins can win at the third time of asking at Yarmouth, while Every Chance has just that at Newcastle

Yarmouth, Newcastle and Exeter take centre stage in the afternoon, before Kempton cracks open its doors for night-time action

Yarmouth should be a decent affair today, and there is plenty of value on offer for punters

How do you have a bet in a race with two-year old horses, none of whom have ever won?

That's the challenge we face this afternoon at Yarmouth in the 2.00.

Some punters look at breeding and some look to evidence on the racetrack of a horse with experience for whom the penny might drop.

We'll take this latter policy and back CELESTIN'S (5/2) to win at the third time of asking for trainer William Haggas.

Ten minutes later at Newcastle (2.10) the promisingly named EVERY CHANCE has an each way chance (6/1) for Jamie Osborne.

Later (3.10) on the same card trainer Richard Fahey saddles IT DON'T COME EASY (5/2) who was runner-up in a better race last time out when we tipped him up.

He's not won in his past handful of outings but today should be the day to make it look a bit easier and finally score.

The amateur jockeys get their chance to shine at Exeter over the jumps this afternoon and we were tempted to back the mount of Miss V Wade in the 2.20 in the expectation of landing an ace, until we realised it wasn't darling Virginia in the saddle.

Instead we'll back THEATRE STAGE (11/2) to bring the house down for trainer Evan Williams.

Half an hour later we'll have ONEFORTHEROADTOM (6/1) each way who has been winning well in point-to-point races (which are amateur races for posh people with Land Rovers).

This evening we're racing at Kempton and we're keeping the process simple with PROCEDURE (7/4) in the 6.45.

Top jockey Ryan Moore is travelling to the track for just this one ride and that's the only clue we need. Lump on!
