Racing tips: After SMASHING in a 3-1 NAP Templegate picks THIS Haydock eyecatcher as Friday’s best bet
TEMPLEGATE goes in search of more winners on Friday ahead of another big weekend of racing.
Read on for our man’s top tips.
SPACER (6.52 Haydock, nap)
He made an eyecatching start to his career when finishing like a train on debut here last month. Moving up in trip can bring more improvement.
ZEBELLE (1.35 Thirsk, nb)
She was impressive when scooting in first-time-out at Ripon. She has since been sold to race for the excellent George Boughey who has been doing well with juveniles this season.
DARK JEDI (3.10 Musselburgh, treble)
He had a bit in hand when winning at Ripon last time. He has gone up 3lb for that but should be right in the mix again.
