Saturday ITV racing tips as Matt Chapman and Templegate go head-to-head with their best bets

IT’S a busy old Saturday across the land and our double act have been busy seeking out some tipping missiles to go to war with.

Chappers thrashed Templegate by a margin of £12 last month, so Templegate will be out for revenge in July.

Templegate

THERE’S much a do about the Coral Distaff. MUCHLY looks a great bet to get back in the groove in this strong Listed contest.

She made all the running to see off Ribblesdale fourth Queen Power at Ascot in May.

More patient tactics and the step up to 1m2f backfired when she pulled too hard and clearly failed to stay the extra distance.

I’m expecting a more prominent ride today from a good draw and that should see her home.

• 1.50 Sandown – Rumble Inthejungle
• 2.05 Haydock – Themax
• 2.25 Sandown – Mojito
• 2.40 Haydock – Enbihaar
• 3.00 Sandown – Muchly NAP
• 3.15 Haydock – Al Muffrih
• 3.35 Sandown – Magical

Matt Chapman

At Haydock the Old Newton Cup Handicap is run over 1m4f at 3.15pm.

FIRST ELEVEN has a huge weight and rating, but he hacked up at York when last seen and is entered in Group 1s for John Gosden.

If he is up to that class then he can carry the welter burden here under Robert Havlin.

Yeeehaaa!
