Horse racing tips: Hexham, Pontefract and Worcester – Templegate’s betting preview for Sunday, June 24
Hexham, Pontefract and Worcester come under the spotlight as Templegate gives you his best bets for the day
CROCHET (nap) had Pontefract’s 4.30 stitched up.
She put in a clear personal best when denied by a neck over today’s track and trip a couple of week ago.
There’s every chance she’ll get her own way out in front and that’s a big advantage at this course.
ALWAYSANDFOREVER (3.30 Pontefract, nb) was good enough to run Group 1 winner Coronet close on her debut a couple of years ago. She hasn’t stood much racing since but if her ninth-length Windsor victory is anything to go by she’s well up to this level.
Templegate's treble
NEXT BEST 3.30 Pontefract - Alwaysandforever: 'Lightly-raced and should be well up to this level'
TREBLE 3.10 Worcester - Northandsouth: 'In good form at the track and gets a drop in class'
NORTHANDSOUTH (3.10 Worcester, treble) has been in good form in chases at this track. He should be suited by the mini-fences reverting to hurdles and dropped in class.
