Templegate, a horse racing tipster for The Sun, presents his selections for Sunday’s races, expressing confidence in their potential success. He highlights ILLICO DE COTTE as his top pick (NAP) for the 1.45 race at Chepstow. This seven-year-old has shown promise since switching to fences, securing a win at Carlisle and a close third in his subsequent race. The form of that race has been boosted by the subsequent wins of the first two finishers, suggesting Illico De Cotte still has significant potential for improvement under the guidance of trainers Harry and Dan Skelton.
MONMIRAL is Templegate’s next best (NB) selection for the 2.05 race at Plumpton. He returns to handicap company after a strong showing in a Grade 2 race at Newbury. Trained by Paul Nicholls, this eight-year-old possesses considerable stamina ideal for this distance and is versatile enough to handle varying ground conditions. His victory in last year’s Pertemps Final underscores his quality, and he is expected to pose a serious threat to his rivals under jockey Harry Cobden.
KATATE DORI completes Templegate’s treble tip, running in the 12.15 race at Chepstow. This horse impressed with a commanding 12-length victory on his chase debut at Exeter on New Year’s Day. Trainer Sam Thomas, currently enjoying a good run of form, opts for a quick turnaround, suggesting confidence in Katate Dori’s ability to handle the relatively short break between races. A penalty for his previous win won’t deter Templegate’s confidence.
AS THE FELLA SAYS is included in Templegate’s Lucky 15 bet, competing in the 1.35 race at Plumpton. This six-year-old, trained by Nicky Henderson, displayed promising form with a second-place finish on his debut at Warwick last month, indicating potential for improvement and a strong chance of victory. This horse rounds out Templegate’s recommended Lucky 15 bet, combining four selections into one wager.
