Horse racing tips: Red-hot Templegate reveals 2000 Guineas NAP at Newmarket plus other best bets after 16-1 double

TEMPLEGATE has been in amazing form this week with a 16-1 double on Thursday – and he reckons it can continue on Saturday.

Read on below to find our man’s top tips on an action-packed Saturday which includes the 2000 Guineas from Newmarket.

MASTER OF THE SEAS (3.40 Newmarket, nap)

He enjoyed the Rowley Mile when taking the Craven Stakes here last time. He quickened well despite traffic problems and stayed strongly. Trainer Charlie Appleby is in top form and he has more to offer.

SIR RON PRIESTLEY (3.00 Newmarket, nb)

He looked better than ever when coming back from 18 months off to score in Listed class at Nottingham. He was second in the Leger so can handle this grade and has enough pace to drop in trip.

MAAMORA (2.05 Goodwood, treble)

She goes well fresh as she showed when going from the front to beat Classic winner Billesdon Brook in a Sandown Group 3 in August. This trip suits and she can make another bold bid.
