Best horse racing tips: Sun Racing’s top picks for today’s racing at Brighton, Catterick, Leicester and Newcastle
Don't miss out on Sun Racing's best bet and each-way shot at all of today's meetings
THE Flat season may be winding down for another year, but there's still some competitive fare on Tuesday.
The Sun Racing team have been studying the form and picked out their best bets and each-way picks for all of Tuesday's cards.
Leicester
Best bet
3.20 Blue De Vega - Given a bit too much to do at Haydock last time when the ground wouldn't have been ideal. Dropped 1lb for that and now has a lower mark than when winning at Ascot in July. Hasn't been running badly to earn that lower rating so he should be bang there at the finish.
Each-way
6.00 Grinty - Slowly returning to form and his effort last time out at Ayr was his best for a while. If coming on again he's well handicapped enough to strike for his trainer who won a Group 1 at Longchamp on Sunday.

Brighton
Best bet
3.30 Allegiant - Was quite an impressive winner for the grade at Epsom last time out under Silvestre De Sousa and the whizz pilot takes the ride once more. Should have too much for these rivals under a 6lb penalty, particularly as the course will be ideal.
Each-way
2.25 Alsimsaam - Ran decent races behind two very smart rivals on his most recent outings and now handicapping he should be able to get much closer. Well-bred sort and a mark of 70 could be on the light side.
Catterick
Best bet
2.00 Chitra - Raised 6lb for winning last time out in a nineteen runner affair at Redcar and that form looks strong for the grade. This is a weaker contest and he should be able to follow up if in the same form.
Each-way
3.10 Aelius - Found the step up in grade slightly beyond him last time out but had been in very good form previously. The longer trip will help and he's only 1lb higher than for finishing second of seventeen at Thirsk on his penultimate start.
QUEEN OF FRANCE Enable wins Arc for second year running under fantastic Frankie
Newcastle
Best bet
7.45 Outrage - Only beaten a head off this mark at Kempton last time where the return to synthetics was clearly welcome. Won over this course and distance off 3lb lower in December last year and he should be able strike now that he's rediscovered some spark.
Each-way
8.15 Ingenuity - Finished runner-up in a novice stakes at this track and after performing respectably for third at Redcar last time, should be suited by the return to Tapeta. Trainer has good record at the course and the step up to a mile looks a good move.
