Horse racing tips TODAY: Templegate fancies 10-3 Pontefract Nap to build the bank ahead of the Grand National

TEMPLEGATE takes on Tuesday’s racing looking to build the bank ahead of the Grand National.

Read on to find out his best tips on a busy day of action around the country.

LOUGANINI (2.00 Pontefract, nap)

He signed off last season with a close second in a good Newmarket handicap.

His best has come over this trip and he looks the type to improve as a four-year-old.

He improved to win at Market Rasen last time. He goes up in grade here but has more to offer.
