Horse racing tips: ‘Everything sets up perfectly for her' – Templegate's 5-2 NAP runs for a red-hot trainer
Back a horse by clicking their odds below.

CINDERELLA'S DREAM (3.35 Newmarket, nap)
She was far from disgraced when second in the Duke Of Cambridge at Royal Ascot on the back of an impressive Dahlia win on the Rowley Mile. She didn't have enough time up the short straight to hit top gear and that's not a problem today.
ENDLESS VICTORY (3.00 Newmarket, nb)
He put in one of the better runs from a Charlie Appleby horse at Royal Ascot. He was too far back before coming home like a train into second. He has more to come over staying trips and will hopefully start his run a bit earlier this time.

SAYIDAH DARIYAN (2.45 York, treble)
She stormed home for fourth in the Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot and could take a step forward again. That performance was no fluke and this Group 3 looks a good opening for a rapidly progressive filly. With pace to aim at and conditions in her favour, she's hard to fault.

1.50
URBAN GLIMPSE
looks the right one.
He's been in fine form and was just edged out at York last time, staying on strongly over a similar trip, and this stiffer finish could play to his strengths.
King's Charter
looks a threat under William Buick.
Advertisement
He takes a big step up from his novice win at Doncaster but that looked a decent contest and he's respected.
Kurakka
is going for a hat-trick after dominating from the front at Haydock but he may lack a bit of pace at this level.
War Hawk
did well to score at Epsom despite traffic problems and the booking of Ryan Moore takes the eye.
Regalian
keeps hitting the frame and may find one too good again.

2.25
VENETIAN SUN
is a skinny price but she'll shine again.
She couldn't have been any more impressive when winning the Albany on her second start at Royal Ascot.
We know this trip and decent ground are ideal and there's more to come.
Advertisement
Spicy Marg
and
Shine On Me
both come here after running well in the Queen Mary with improvement to come.
The latter could be the pick of the pair given how sharply she came home. Moving up to 6f could unlock more from both of them.
Mood Queen
and
Royal Fixation
both won novice contests well but need a fair bit more.
Argentine Tango
was a Listed winner here latest so we know the trip suits and she could hit the frame.

3.00
ENDLESS VICTORY
put in one of the better runs from a Charlie Appleby horse at Royal Ascot.
He was too far back before coming home like a train into second.
He has more to come over staying trips and will hopefully start his run a bit earlier this time.
Advertisement
Dancing In Paris
was a good second in the Northumberland Plate and is a big threat if this isn't coming too soon. We know stamina isn't an issue.
Insanity
put a few modest runs behind him when winning at Ayr and is dangerous if still in the groove.
Real Dream
scored at Listed level last time and a repeat of that gives each-way hopes.
Story Horse
likes it here and is another with place prospects.

3.35
CINDERELLA'S DREAM
was far from disgraced when second in the Duke Of Cambridge at Royal Ascot on the back of an impressive Dahlia win on the Rowley Mile.
She didn't have enough time up the short straight to hit top gear and that's not a problem today.
Crimson Advocate
showed good pace to beat the tip last time with Ascot suiting better. This long straight may not be so helpful.
Advertisement
January
gets weight off them and went close in the Coronation. She can't be ignored.
Elmalka
is a Guineas winner so will enjoy the track and put in a fair effort in France last time. She needs to step up to score.
Elwateen
didn't handle Epsom last time and could nick third.
YORK

2.10
DUBAI TREASURE
looks well ahead of this standard.
Saeed Bin Suroor's lightly raced filly made it two from two this term with ease at Lingfield on handicap debut.
The handicapper was watching and has booted her up 10lb but she looks potentially better than a handicapper.
Advertisement
Fortamour
keeps knocking on the door at this level and has run well here before.
Sword
was a good winner at Leicester last month before another good run when hampered at Haydock last time. He's a big danger.
Streets of Gold
is another of interest if building on a solid first run for Julie Camacho.
Fifty Nifty
is still 6lb above his last win but has his sights lowered plenty here which could help.
Advertisement
Physique
ran well at Newmarket last time and likes this tricky trip.
He's not won for a while but could make the frame, while
Talis Evolvere
was back to form at Newcastle 13 days ago.
2.45
SAYIDAH DARIYAN
stormed home for fourth in the Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot and could take a step forward again.
Advertisement
That performance was no fluke and this Group 3 looks a good opening for a rapidly progressive filly.
With pace to aim at and conditions in her favour, she's hard to fault.
Electric Storm
looks a danger with her ability to lay up with the speed and her Group 2 form reading well.
If she grabs an early position, she'll be hard to pass.
Advertisement
First Instinct
has been mixing it at Group 2 level and is a strong-finishing type who could run into the frame.
Nighteyes
posted a huge run in the Jubilee and goes well here but her sluggish starts are a worry.
If
Celandine
is fully tuned after 286 days off, her Lowther winning form puts her in the each-way picture.

Horse racing tips: ‘He has a cracking record at the track' – Templegate's GIANT 20-1 NAP on day one of Glorious Goodwood
TEMPLEGATE tackles day one of Glorious Goodwood confident of giving the bookies a pasting with his top tips. Back a horse by clicking their odds below - and check out this Advertisement DREAM COMPOSER (3.45 Goodwood, nap) Has a cracking record on the Sussex Downs with two wins and a host of excellent placed efforts on this tricky track. James Evans' flyer has dropped back to his last winning mark and showed plenty of heart when second in a tight finish at Pontefract last time. The ground was tacky in Yorkshire that day but he handles quicker conditions too. So this trip is ideal, he likes the track and is on a fair mark. The bookies are taking a chance by chalking him up around the 20-1 mark and he can go close under his capable 5lb claimer. DORSET (1.55 Goodwood, nb) This selection should be right at home on the south coast of England! The Aidan O'Brien hope is bred to be classy and looked full of promise when scooting in at The Curragh last month. He is proven over this trip and has much more to come. Advertisement FRENCH MASTER (3.05 Goodwood, treble) He was impressive when winning a Royal Ascot handicap and this longer trip should bring even more improvement. He can go close for the Gosdens who love this race. Templegate's TV verdicts 1.20 Advertisement Most read in Horse Racing Exclusive Sponsored GREY CUBAN clocked a massive personal best when scooting in at Chester last week and looks a fair price to go close again. The booking of Oisin Murphy takes the eye and he is best over this trip on fast or sticky ground. Five of the past six runnings of this have been won by a double-figure draw and even a 7lb rise in the weights doesn't dampen confidence. Jolly Jack Tar is improving with every run and looks the main danger. Advertisement This is his turf debut for the Gosdens but he had plenty in hand when scoring at Chelmsford last time. He's up 9lb for that but stays and can progress again. Castle Cove is another coming here from a Chester win that was all the better as it came from stall 13. He's on the upgrade for William Haggas. English Oak ran well at Hamilton last time and will go close if seeing out this longer trip while improver Defiance lurks on a fair mark. Advertisement 1.55 DORSET looked the latest future star off the Ballydoyle production line when stepping up from his debut to win impressively at The Curragh. As you'd expect he's from a high-class family and likes this trip. He should take another big step forward under Ryan Moore. Advertisement Wathnan Racing snapped up Humidity just before his all-the-way win in the Chesham at Royal Ascot and he's another with plenty more to come. He looks the main threat. Zavateri clocked a good time when winning the July Stakes over 6f at Newmarket. He came from off a strong pace there and should enjoy going up in trip. He has a 3lb penalty but Eve Johnson Houghton continues in excellent form. Advertisement Do Or Do Not came home with a real rattle for second in that race and will also appreciate this trip. Andab needs more after his Coventry Stakes fourth while Laureate Crown was impressive on his Ascot debut and could nick a place at decent odds. 2.30 NOBLE CHAMPION was impressive when winning the Group 3 Jersey Stakes at Royal Ascot last time. Advertisement Being gelded over the winter has clearly worked wonders as he looked a different horse and clocked a decent time despite drifting across the track late on. He's proven over the trip and is open to plenty of improvement. Kinross still looks the main danger at the age of eight. He's won this twice and has been placed on his two other attempts. Advertisement He was just behind Ten Bob Tony – who has an each-way shout here – at Haydock last time but is better off at the weights today and will have needed that comeback. His liking for the track is a major plus. Last year's winner Audience has been struggling but he's back from a little break and returning here may rekindle his flame. Quinault got the job done well at York last month at Group 3 level and looks a big price to make the frame over an ideal trip. Advertisement Jonquil was a head second in the French Guineas before finding the drop to 6f too much last time. This in-between distance could be just right. Lake Forest has some decent form over this trip and is better than we saw at York last time out. 3.05 Advertisement FRENCH MASTER put himself right in the picture for the Goodwood Cup when running away with the Copper Horse Handicap at Royal Ascot last time. He won that competitive contest over 1m6f like a top-quality Cup horse in the making. He travelled nicely off the pace and had to come very wide around the home turn before picking up quickly along the short Ascot straight to score going away. He clearly has more on his plate here but that built on another promising victory over the same trip around here in May. Advertisement That shows his liking for the track and moving up to two miles can unlock more improvement too. There's no doubt he needs a step forward but at this early stage of his career that's highly likely. Illinois sets the standard after his second in the Ascot Gold Cup last time to the gutsy Trawlerman. That was his first crack over two miles or more and he saw it out well enough, still finishing ahead of some useful marathon runners. Advertisement He kicked off the season winning the Ormonde at Chester so he comes here without too many miles on the clock. The doubt about him has to be the track although handling the Roodee bodes well for taking to Goodwood and he has been a little uneasy in the market this week. That's largely because of a move for Aidan O'Brien stablemate Scandinavia who took the Bahrain Trophy at Newmarket last time without breaking sweat. He was beaten just a length in the Queen's Vase before that and is another who looks suited to this trip. Advertisement He's the Ballydoyle second string but still sets a pretty decent standard. Sweet William fans will hope eight line up as he has solid each-way claims at a track that really suits him. He won a big handicap here in 2023 and was second in this race to Kyprios 12 months ago and none of today's rivals are up to that standard. He can be relied on to give his running and a podium finish is highly likely. Advertisement Sunway is interesting going back over a long trip after a fair run in the Hardwicke at Royal Ascot but needs more. Military Academy came up short at Listed level here last time and is likely to find this a bit too much. Trueshan isn't the horse he was and wants it much softer, while Dubai Future was a good if distant third in the Ascot Gold Cup last time and is getting on at the age of nine. 3.45 Advertisement DREAM COMPOSER has a cracking record at Goodwood and looks a big price in a wide-open race. He's dropped to his last winning mark and went close at Pontefract last time. A repeat of that gives him a solid chance. Redorange was beaten just half a length in hot company at Ascot last time despite having the worst of the draw. Advertisement That was after an excellent third at the Royal meeting and he's a threat. Adrestia finished two places ahead of him in that race and ran well in a Sandown Group 3 last time so is respected. Shagraan often runs well here and is another coming off a good spin in Group company. Regal Envoy won nicely twice at Windsor before misfiring at York and could bounce back under William Buick. Advertisement Miss Attitude went close in a York Listed contest last time.

Horse racing tips: ‘He can win the race again' – Templegate's big NAP runs at Pontefract
TEMPLEGATE tackles Sunday's racing confident of bashing the bookies. Don't forget, you can back any of his selections by clicking on their odds below. POINT LYNAS (2.55 Pontefract, nap) Ed Bethell's star is coming here after running a cracker in the Group 2 Summer Mile at Ascot last time. He is best over this trip on decent ground and anything like his best form would suffice. LA QUARITE (5.07 Uttoxeter, nb) Had 36 lengths to spare when scooting in over fences at Newton Abbot last time. The Bowens now send him back to hurdling off the same mark and he'll be hard to beat over a trip that suits with the champion jockey up. VENTURA EXPRESS (4.25 Pontefract, treble) Just denied at Beverley last time and a tiny rise in the weights gives Paul Midgley's flyer every chance of going one better here.
