Each-way Thief
DAME DE COMPAGNIE (1.50 Sandown)
She has some top-class form over hurdles and made a good start to her chasing career with a convincing win at Ayr last time.
This is a hotter race than that but there’s any amount of improvement to come.
DEISE ABA (3.30 Sandown)
It’s worrying to see “PP” as his form figures heading into this race but he’s capable of much better form than that.
Philip Hobbs’ horses are running much better now and it’s only three runs since he was a close-up fifth in the Kim Muir at Cheltenham.
This test of stamina is ideal and he is down the weights with cheekpieces on for the first time.
Don't forget, SunSport tipster Templegate has given a verdict on every race on Saturday.
