Templegate’s racing tips: Musselburgh and Taunton – Betting preview for Saturday

VIENNA COURT (nap) gets the verdict in Taunton’s 3.10.

Team Twiston-Davies went close with this five-year-old in a better race than this at Newbury last time. She would have won but for fluffing the last and lessons will have been learned.

Stick with top trainer Nigel and GOA LIL (1.45 Musselburgh, nb). He had plenty in hand when scoring at Kempton and can handle this hike in class.

TACTICAL MANOEUVRE (4.10 Taunton, treble) has been a revelation on his past two runs with wins at Exeter and over course and distance last time. He can make it three on the spin.
