Templegate's Top Picks
Our top tipster Templegate has picked out the big horses he fancies for the week. He also shares a few worth betting on in advance. Here are some of his top selections:
Tower of London
Date: Wednesday, Race: Great Voltigeur
Aidan O'Brien's colt has a massive chance in the Voltigeur. He's shown great potential in his previous races and is definitely one to watch.
Kings Gamble
Date: Wednesday, Race: Acomb Stakes
Trained by Ralph Beckett, this colt is a hot prospect after an impressive debut win at Newmarket. Stepping up to seven furlongs should bring even more improvement.
Perotto
Date: Thursday, Race: Clipper Handicap
This five-year-old has been in fine form since moving to Roger Varian's stable. A good performance in the Golden Mile at Glorious Goodwood shows he is a strong contender.
Highfield Princess
Date: Friday, Race: Nunthorpe Stakes
Defending champion Highfield Princess should be a serious contender in this race. With impressive runs at Royal Ascot, she has the potential to come out on top again.
Amleto
Date: Saturday, Race: Melrose Stakes
Trained by Yorkshire-born William Haggas, Amleto looks perfect for this handicap race. A second-place finish at Glorious Goodwood shows his potential, and there's more to come.
Sea Eagle
Date: Saturday, Race: Finale Handicap
This colt is a classy contender, and with the benefit of a recent run, he could take a big step forward in this handicap race. His performance at Goodwood was promising.
Real Dream
Date: Saturday, Race: Ebor
Sir Michael Stoute's Real Dream looks to be the perfect horse for this challenge. With an impressive win at Ascot last time out, he has a lot of potential and handles any ground.
Stay tuned for all the action and excitement at the York Ebor Festival next week. Templegate's bets and predictions are sure to make this a thrilling event for all horse racing fans.
