Templegate, a horse racing tipster for The Sun, presents his selections for Thursday’s races, brimming with confidence in his chosen runners. He highlights four key horses across different meetings, offering detailed justifications for each pick. He also promotes The Sun Racing Members Enclosure, a subscription service providing exclusive early access to his tips, along with other benefits.
Master of My Fate is Templegate’s nap, his most confident selection of the day, running in the 7.30 race at Southwell. Trained by John and Sean Quinn, this sprinter boasts excellent recent form, having secured a victory at this very course and distance last month. Following a brief setback, Master of My Fate bounced back with two impressive wins at Lingfield in the new year. His latest victory at Lingfield, just five days prior to this race, demonstrated a comfortable margin of victory, suggesting that the 5lb penalty he carries is unlikely to hinder his performance. Jockey Jason Hart, a regular partner for the horse, takes the reins, further bolstering Templegate’s confidence.
Humble Spark, Templegate’s next best bet (nb), is set to contest the 12.41 race at Newcastle. This horse thrives at Gosforth Park, having won his last two races at the venue. One of these victories was achieved over the same distance as Thursday’s race, showcasing a clear dominance with a two-length winning margin. Despite a 6lb weight increase, Templegate believes Humble Spark maintains his competitive edge, especially under the guidance of experienced jockey Paul Mulrennan. The tipster predicts a potential hat-trick for the horse.
Forest Blaze, forming the third leg of Templegate’s treble, is entered in the 2.05 race at Wetherby. This horse has demonstrated significant improvement since entering handicap races, culminating in a well-deserved win at Hexham in his last outing. Forest Blaze appeared to relish the step up in trip, and Templegate anticipates further progress in this race, suggesting untapped potential.
La Pinsonniere completes Templegate’s Lucky 15 selection, running in the 12.12 race at Huntingdon. With previous experience in French Graded races, this horse possesses a higher level of form than her debut second-place finish for trainer Nicky Henderson at Windsor suggests. Templegate posits that the nine-month layoff prior to that race may have contributed to the result, and anticipates a stronger performance this time out, especially with top jockey Nico de Boinville on board.
Alongside his racing tips, Templegate heavily promotes The Sun Racing Members Enclosure. He emphasizes the service’s exclusive and early access to his daily tips at the best available odds, positioning it as the optimal way to follow his selections. Membership benefits include four free racing tickets annually, valued at £300, early access to the following day’s edition of The Favourite, exclusive insights from renowned trainer Ben Pauling, and monthly VIP competitions offered by Racing Breaks.
