Horse racing tips: ‘This race should set up perfectly for him' – Templegate's red-hot Sandown NAP
Back a horse by clicking their odds below.
CASH (4.10 Sandown, nap).
Jamie Spencer's mount can swoop late to take the Listed Gala Stakes. He was in decent form at Goodwood last time when the challenge came a little late. There are a couple of prominent racers in the field who should set it up nicely.
ELSASS (3.25 Doncaster, nb)
Went down in a tight finish here last time and can go one better for in-form Charlie Johnston. The handicapper has left his mark alone despite that promising effort and he has a lot more to offer with just four starts under his belt.
TRUESHAN (4.45 Sandown, treble).
He's nine now but looked in good form when returning with an excellent fourth in a French Group 1 last time out. It's a big drop down to Listed level from there and we know he has plenty of staying power. He won this race last year and can repeat the feat.
