LONGSHOT
PORTICELLO (1.30)
He had 17 lengths to spare last time and landed a Grade 1 prize at Chepstow. He has shown his best form over this distance.
Templegate has also plucked out some placepot picks for you...
THE Placepot is a bet where you select a horse to be placed in the FIRST SIX races of any meeting.
You can pick more than one horse in a race – you just multiply the number of selections in each race to calculate your stake.
So for staking it’s 1x2x2x2x2x2 which adds up to 32 lines in the Placepot. You can stake what you want but 20p a line would cost £6.40 and so on.
Provided at least one of our horses in each race is placed, we get paid!
