Horse racing tips: This 16-1 shot returns to his beloved Brighton off a dangerous handicap mark

SUN Racing goes looking for value on Saturday.

Read on below to find out some bets that look tempting at big odds.

Longshot

DE LITTLE ENGINE (6.00 Brighton)

He is tumbling down the weights and the booking of Franny Norton catches the eye over his favourite course and distance.

His last turf win came here and he’s a handy 12lb lower in the handicap today. If the first-time visor wakes him up he can go well.

Each-way Thief

EPIEUS (12.10 Thirsk)

He hasn’t enjoyed himself on the all-weather this winter so comes back to turf from 10lb lower than his last outing on the green stuff. This trip and quick ground are ideal and he can hit the frame.

CATLIN (12.55 Bangor)

She relished a similar trip to this when winning at Newcastle last time and looks a proper stayer. She’s only six and it’s early days over fences so there should be more to come.

Templegate has a pick in every race on Saturday.

Looks on a handy mark going back over fences for in-form yard.

Easy winner last time and hard to beat without a penalty.
