Templegate’s racing tips: Musselburgh, Ludlow, Taunton, Newcastle and Kempton – Templegate’s betting preview for racing on Thursday, February 28
Musselburgh, Ludlow, Taunton, Newcastle and Kempton come under the spotlight as Templegate gives you his best bets for the day
TAKE a Shot with WHOSHOTWHO in Taunton’s 3.45.
Richard Newland’s stayer ran a corker when third in the Tommy Whittle at Haydock in December and should go close in this lesser grade.
He has stacks of experience for a novice and can put that to good use in this small field.
UHLAN BUTE (3.35 Ludlow, nb) can continue trainer Venetia Williams’ decent record in this.
The veteran has been in fantastic form this season and proved he can be competitive off this mark when going down narrowly over track & trip last week.
He should have too much staying power for his rivals.
Templegate's Treble Selection
NAP - WHOSHOTWHO, 3.45 Taunton: "He is respected back up in trip on the evidence of his Tommy Whittle third at Haydock."
NB - UHLAN BUTE, 3.35 Ludlow: "Beaten a neck by Kilfilum Cross when second of 9 on his latest outing in a chase over this course and distance (good) earlier this month."
TREBLE - THISTLE DO NICELY, 4.20 Taunton: "This five-year-old has some decent novice form to his name and can take a step forward in handicap company."
THISTLE DO NICELY (4.20 Taunton, treble) is a Nice bet.
Jamie Snowden’s five-year-old makes his handicap debut off a lenient mark and looks the type to improve significantly now stepped up in trip.
