Horse racing tips: Templegate’s NAP looks an exciting prospect as Chester’s big meeting kicks off
TEMPLEGATE tackles Wednesday’s classy racing action hungry for winners.
Back a horse at the best price by clicking their odds below.
GALILEO DAME (3.05 Chester)
She looked a hot prospect when winning over 1m2f at Leopardstown last month. She tanked along and this longer trip should be ideal. There’s a lot more to come.
WINGED MESSENGER (1.30 Chester, nb)
He was a bit unlucky not to win at Thirsk on comeback, going down by a length after being blocked in the run. He’ll improve for that first run after seven months and stall seven is just about OK.
GROSVENOR SQUARE (3.40 Chester, treble)
He landed a Group 3 in style at Leopardstown in October and should improve for this longer trip. He has a good draw and this is another race trainer Aidan O’Brien targets.
