TEMPLEGATE takes on Thursday's action confident of building the bank for a decent weekend of action.

BOILING POINT (3.45 Newcastle, nap)
The unexposed four-year-old was a smart performer for Roger Varian last season, winning a Listed contest at Newmarket before a solid fourth over a mile in a red-hot Group 3 at Goodwood in August. He was competing with the likes of Lead Artist and Dancing Gemini in that lofty contest and should be able to overcome a mark of 107 on his handicap debut for his new trainer Karl Burke.
SAHANA (4.45 Newmarket, nb)
Was a revelation when making a winning handicap debut at Yarmouth two weeks ago. She travelled strongly and produced a sharp turn of foot to win smoothly. A 5lb rise is unlikely to stop her and she's just the type to run up a sequence of wins in the next month or so.
POMME POMME (8.15 Hamilton, treble)
Can land a superb six-timer.Jack Channon's improving filly started life off in handicaps off a mark of 47 but, after five wins, she is now racing off 78. She will be short odds but is clearly thriving and should have too much for her modest rivals.
COGITATE (4.10 Newmarket, Lucky 15)
It was hard not to be impressed with his win at Salisbury last month and he should take some stopping here.

‘What a rush' – Brad Pitt on driving Formula One car as new movie hits cinemas
The Hollywood star, who plays F1 driver Sonny Hayes in the blockbuster film, was recently given the chance to drive McLaren's 2023 car around Austin's Circuit of the Americas. Pitt, 61, had plenty of driving experience – including behind the wheel of modified F2 cars – while filming the movie over the last two years, but was blown away by his first taste of an F1 car. 'Oh my God, what a rush,' Pitt said in a video on McLaren's social media channels. 'A lot bigger horse than I've been on.' Brad Pitt LOVES the MCL60 🤩✅#McLaren | #F1TheMovie — McLaren (@McLarenF1) June 25, 2025 Pitt added on the Beyond the Grid podcast: 'I got to hit 197mph this week. I really wanted to hit 200. You know, it hurts me a little bit – three miles per hour short on the straight. This was at Austin. 'You're so focused, but you're not white knuckling. You're just in this sublime groove. It is really extraordinary. 'I try to explain this feeling of downforce, and I fail every time because you try to say like a rollercoaster, but that's not even right, because you feel the fulcrum point underneath you – you're in it. 'I was in an aerobatic plane once, and it's the closest thing, but still this thing… this is such a unique feeling and an absolute high. I'm still on a high, I really am. I'm just still on a high.' Pitt's fictional rookie team-mate Joshua Pearce is played by British actor Damson Idris. Filming has taken place across multiple races over the last two seasons and F1 chiefs hope the movie will follow the popularity of Netflix's Drive To Survive series in cracking America. Seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton is an executive producer on the movie, directed by Joseph Kosinski and co-produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, which will be released in the United States on Friday. Hamilton, 40, posted a picture of himself alongside Pitt as he reflected on the journey he had been on while making the film. 'Four years in the making — what a journey it's been,' Hamilton wrote on Instagram. 'I'm incredibly grateful to everyone at Apple and Warner Bros for believing in us and partnering with such heart and vision. To Joe and Jerry — thank you. I've learned so much from both of you and it's truly been an honour to work alongside you. 'These were taken on our very first day on track, with Brad at Silverstone looking into Copse Corner. What a moment. One of those memories that stick with you.'
