Horse racing tips: Our train can come in at Catterick when Chu Chu Percy steams in

He won at Newcastle, hasn't been clobbered in the weights and looks to be on the right track

WE'RE over the sticks this afternoon at Catterick and Leicester with some Flat action at Newcastle and later this evening at Chelmsford.

We'll keep it simple by sticking to the Jumps stuff. The decorations are down, the house is bare and it's still nearly 3 weeks til pay day.

But our train can come in at Catterick (1.00) when CHU CHU PERCY steams in.

He won at Newcastle, hasn't been clobbered in the weights and looks to be on the right track. Half an later we'll still be seeking a profit and UN PROPHETE can line our pockets.

Venetia Williams specialises with these sorts of big, hardy jumpers and recent form stacks up nicely to hopefully run well.

If those two come in we will dine bally well tonight but we can order a fancy pudding by backing BALLYDINE (Leicester 1.45) to win.

After a year or so off the track he had a pipe opener at Haydock and today should be tailor made to remind us how smart he is.

Back at Catterick (2.05) we'll be on cloud nine if PLANET NINE sends us into space at a big price (advice: each way).

He looks overpriced against vulnerable rivals.

Finally, Leicester's 2.20 is highly unlikely to be remembered as a titanic battle to live long in the memory, but that shouldn't stop us from backing CLASH OF D TITANS to fight off his rivals and be our own glorious champion.
