Horse racing tips: Templegate is all over a course and distance winner at Chelmsford on Thursday as Jim Crowley on board
TEMPLEGATE has been in a red-hot run of form and looks to keep it going today.
Here, our man takes on Thursday's racing in the UK - and has also got stuck into the tip-top action across the Irish Sea at Punchestown.
DAWAAM (7.15 Chelmsford, nap)
He ended last season with a cosy win over this course and distance.
He’s only 4lb higher in the weights and has few miles on the clock for his age so should be capable of better.
