Templegate’s racing tips: Lingfield, Carlisle and Newcastle – Templegate’s betting preview for racing on Monday, February 18
Lingfield, Carlisle and Newcastle come under the spotlight as Templegate gives you his best bets for the day
ROAR home LION HEARTED (nap) in Newcastle’s 6.00.
Michael Appleby’s ace has been a revelation for his new yard — with an unbeaten record of three wins out of three runs.
He won his last start here by six lengths, but amazingly escapes a penalty for that impressive win.
It would be a shock if he did not land the four-timer with ease.
GIACOMO CASANOVA (5.30 Newcastle, nb) can charm his rivals. Kevin Ryan’s flying machine bolted up over track & trip last month and a 7lb rise looks lenient.
He goes well here and will be hard to beat if he’s anywhere near top form.
Templegate's treble
NAP: 6.00 Newcastle - Lion Hearted 'On a roll and escapes a penalty for latest win'
NEXT BEST: 5.30 Newcastle - Giacomo Casanova 'Bolted up over C&D last time and 7lb rise looks lenient'
TREBLE: 3.35 Carlisle - Thosedaysaregone 'Struggled at Ascot but big chance now dropped in class'
THOSEDAYSAREGONE (3.35 Carlisle, treble) can bounce back to form.
The Charles Byrnes-trained six-year-old found things a bit too hot when fourth in better race at Ascot last month.
He looks to have found a great opportunity here back in Class 3 company.
