TEMPLEGATE tackles a brilliant Saturday of racing confident of smashing the bookies.

NOTABLE SPEECH (2.35 Newbury, nap)
He proved himself high-class over a mile last season, winning the 2,000 Guineas and Sussex Stakes either side of a blip at Royal Ascot. He finished the season going close in the Breeders' Cup Mile and loves fast ground. He's gone well fresh and can kick off this season with a win.
IDES OF MARCH (1.25 Newbury, nb)
The Aidan O'Brien hopeful was an easy Group 3 winner at The Curragh last year and will take plenty of stopping. He's fit from a solid comeback run at Navan and the trip suits perfectly.
WALEEFY (1.05 Newmarket, treble)
He looks primed to strike back over his ideal trip after finding 6f too sharp at Goodwood. He was entitled to be a bit rusty on comeback too and should be a lot sharper for in-form William Haggas.

Mum wins £11k payout from Premier League star who ‘helped his brother dodge child support payments to daughter, two'
PAID UP Mum wins £11k payout from Premier League star who 'helped his brother dodge child support payments to daughter, two' A MUM has won an £11,000 payout from a Premier League star accused of helping his brother dodge child support payments for his young daughter, she claims. Chelsea ace Tosin Adarabioyo allegedly funds older brother Fisayo's extravagant lifestyle, paying for a £2.9million mansion, giving him a monthly income and a credit card to go shopping with.

But despite his millionaire lifestyle, Fisayo has yet to pay a penny towards his two-year-old daughter Anara's upbringing after telling the Child Maintenance Service he's skint, it is claimed. Anara's struggling mum Nadia Messaoud, 41, who dated Fisayo for a year before they split in 2022, said she was forced to take action after being ignored. She took civil action against Chelsea defender Tosin for funding his brother while allegedly knowing of his sibling's obligations. Advertisement Legal documents relating to the civil action, seen by The Sun, state: 'The defendant (Tosin) has been knowingly providing his older brother, Fisayo Adarabioyo, with an income that is not being declared to HMRC or the child maintenance service. 'This is with the intention to obstruct my daughter's legal right to obtain child maintenance. 'My child has for the last three years been awarded the nil level of CMS.' Nadia also alleged that as well as thousands of pounds a month in cash income, Tosin also provides his brother with a credit card to spend on. Advertisement According to Land Registry documents, Tosin, 27, thought to be on £120,000 a week at Chelsea, owns the Cheshire mansion in which Fisayo lives. The Department of Work and Pensions has awarded unemployed Fisayo a "nil rate" on child support for the past three years because he claims he does not earn enough to pay. Nadia staged a protest outside Chelsea's Stamford Bridge stadium last month to raise awareness around her cause. She wore a vest top and held a sign both of which said: 'TOSIN #4 Women Matter, Children Matter, D.A (Domestic Abuse) survivors matter.' Advertisement She is backed by domestic abuse charity Women's Aid. Fisayo was convicted of harassment without violence in 2022 after turning up at Nadia's terraced home in Cheshire, banging on her door and leaving her terrified. He also bombarded her with texts, saying he hoped she miscarried the baby and threatened to kill her. After allegedly failing to respond to Nadia's legal claim, his brother Tosin has been ordered by the court to pay her £11,000. Advertisement However, Tosin's legal team told The Sun the order was a "default judgement" made in error "on the part of the court". Nadia said: "I've not received a penny from Fisayo to help with our daughter, while he's living a footballer's lifestyle thanks to his Chelsea playing brother. "I've been rebuffed at every opportunity which is why I decided to take legal action against both of them. "All I ever wanted was a reasonable level of financial support but Fisayo has claimed poverty. Now I know the truth. Advertisement "As a Premier League player Tosin is supposed to be a role model, but his actions have essentially blocked my daughter from receiving the financial support she's entitled to by law." Tosin's lawyers' statement added: "The Order arises from a default judgement which has been entered by the Court in a claim issued by Nadia Messaoud against our client ('the Claim'). Unfortunately, it would appear that our client's strike out application has not been properly processed by the Court and it has therefore allowed automatic default judgement to be entered in favour of Ms Messaoud. "This is a very serious administrative failing on the Court's part and one which we are addressing with the Court on our client's behalf. Advertisement Inappropriately, she made an application for judgement in default, despite being served with that application. "Your summary is not a fair and accurate report of anything that has taken place in the Court proceedings." They added that as well as "chasing" the court, they have also made an application on their client's behalf "to have the default judgement order set aside". "In summary therefore, the Order which you have seen is subject to an active challenge, and should never have been issued by the Court in the first place." Advertisement They said the claim is a "pattern of behaviour" by Ms Messaoud "to exert unwanted pressure on our client to provide further funding to her". "Our client has no relationship with Ms Messaoud and owes no legal or other duties or obligations to her," the statement adds. The Sun has also contacted Fisayo's lawyer and Chelsea for comment. 5 Fisayo Adarabioyo seen in January this year carrying a £3,140 Bottega Veneta leather briefcase Credit: PP. Advertisement

A yellow weather warning for thunderstorms and hail is in place for Epsom on Saturday. While a deluge of rain is set to fall overnight. Godolphin trainer Appleby saw red-hot Oaks favourite Desert Flower get turned over by Aidan O'Brien's Minnie Hauk. Chamberlin said: "Charlie felt it was the track rather than the trip that hindered Desert Flower. "And when talking about tomorrow, he said if it gets very wet and messy and they start coming to the stands' side, they might just have a think about whether to run Ruling Court or not."

Derby 2025: Aidan O'Brien claims ELEVENTH Oaks victory with Classic one-two
The Ballydoyle trainer now has an extraordinary 31 wins in Epsom's Group 1 races, having won the Derby and Coronation Cup ten times each Ryan Moore picked the right Aidan O'Brien filly to land a one-two for the stable in the Betfred Oaks at Epsom. The Ballydoyle trainer has an amazing record in Epsom's three Group 1 contests. He has won ten editions of the Derby and on Friday claimed a tenth win in the Coronation Cup with Jan Brueghel. He had also won the Oaks ten times, in which he trained three of the nine runners, giving stable jockey Ryan Moore a potential big race headache. Moore, who rarely gets it wrong, went for Minnie Hauk, the winner of the Cheshire Oaks, rather than Whirl or Giselle. It was touch and go whether he had chosen correctly as Whirl, under Wayne Lordan, made her challenge with the advantage of the rail to race against in the straight. But Minnie Hauk matched her all the way and narrowly edged the ensuing duel to win by a neck with favourite Desert Flower, winner of the 1,000 Guineas, struggling to handle the track as she finished four lengths back in third. Moore said: 'She is still learning a little bit. She didn't have much racing at two. Aidan had a lot of faith in her. She has come on a lot since Chester. 'She travelled round strong. The filly in front didn't quit at all. She picked up quite easy and then was a little bit green in front. She was wanting to run down the camber but when the other filly came back, she went on again. 'She's a talented filly and she obviously stays very well. Hopefully she will build on this.' O'Brien has another three horses in Saturday's Betfred Derby in which Moore has sided with Delacroix. The trainer said: 'She is a very classy filly. She was just ready to run in Chester and then made abnormal improvement from Chester. It was all class rather than stamina and fitness. 'Ryan loved her the last day and loved her again today. She's very exciting.' He went on: 'Whirl ran a great race too. She was fighting back again at the line.' O'Brien said the 11th Oaks victory was 'a credit to everybody', particularly the members of the Coolmore partnership. He said: 'All I do is observe every day. Before they go to Coolmore they are reared and broken, brought over and everyone takes charge of them. It's such a big team. So many people are involved on the way up.'
