TEMPLEGATE'S tips for Friday's racing are below - as he looks to build the bank for York next week.
Back a horse by clicking their odds below.
SUNNY SMILE (3.05 Newbury, nap)
She was much improved when winning at Hamilton last time with Oisin Murphy in the saddle for the first time. The former champ stays on board today for this handicap debut off a fair mark of 81 and there's a lot more to come.
FLOWERHEAD (4.45 Newbury, nb)
Can blossom in the St Hugh's Stakes at the Berkshire track. She has run two mighty races at Ascot this season. Charlie Clover's filly was beaten just over a length when second in the Queen Mary at the Royal meeting and was back for a close-up fifth in the Princess Margaret Stakes last time. Dropping back to 5f in this lesser grade can see her head in front again.
CALENDAR GIRL (2.40 Epsom, treble)
There was a lot to like about the way she scooted home to win on debut at Newbury 22 days ago. Owen Burrows isn't particularly known for first-time-out winners so there should be more to come.
CANCAN IN THE RAIN (6.25 Newmarket, Lucky 15)
He got the job done well at Southwell last time and has decent form on fast-ground turf too so should be right at home.

Horse racing tips: ‘Nothing can beat him and he won this race last year' – Templegate's 3-1 NAP at Windsor
TEMPLEGATE'S TIPS Horse racing tips: 'Nothing can beat him and he won this race last year' – Templegate's 3-1 NAP at Windsor TEMPLEGATE'S horse racing tips for all the British meetings on Thursday are below. Back a horse by clicking their odds. Advertisement NIGHT BREEZE (7.30 Windsor, nap) Shrewd and in-form trainer Ian Williams can strike with this son of New Approach, who carries a 5lb penalty thanks to his smooth win on Saturday's Shergar Cup card. He stayed well on quick ground at Ascot and he won this race 12 months ago so trip and track are ideal. HUSCAL (6.30 Windsor, nb) Had shocking luck at Doncaster last time and can make amends here. Charlie Hills' three-year-old had a full tank entering the final furlong on Town Moor but had to sit and suffer behind a wall of horses. When the gap came, he picked up well but the line came a few strides too soon. He'll be right there again. Advertisement WOOHOO (5.00 Windsor, treble) Is in flying form for Jim Goldie and this looks another solid chance. He's won four of his past six and was another who didn't get the best of runs at the Chepstow Racing League meeting. This race looks no tougher and he's a fair price.

Tottenham and PSG fans banned from buying anything but BEER ahead of Super Cup as bar leaves notes saying ‘blame Uefa'
Local residents have also been slapped with the restriction Beer we go Tottenham and PSG fans banned from buying anything but BEER ahead of Super Cup as bar leaves notes saying 'blame Uefa' TOTTENHAM and Paris Saint-Germain fans may be preparing for their teams to face off on the pitch, but they have been united in dismay after being banned from buying anything but beer. Europa League winners, Spurs, are gearing up to face the Champions League winners, PSG, for tonight's Uefa Super Cup clash in Udine, Italy. Advertisement 4 Beer was the only drink allowed to be sold by bars in Udine ahead of the Uefa Super Cup Credit: The Sun 4 A note written where spirits would usually be placed blamed Uefa Credit: The Sun 4 Wine was also on the banned list ahead of the game Credit: The Sun The clash is being held at the 25,000-seater Stadio Friuli, home of Serie A side Udinese. However, as thousands of fans from across Europe travel there for the 8pm clash, the city council has put a bizarre restriction in place against footy fanatics. Footage captured by SunSport in the city showed that alcoholic spirits such as rum, whisky and vodka had all been taken down from behind a bar, with even wine being missing in action. Instead, the only thing that was allowed to be served to thirsty patrons was beer. Advertisement A note written on a piece of paper taped up on the wall where spirits would typically revealed why they were not serving anything but beer. The note, written in bold red ink, said: "Say thanks to the Uefa," with another one underneath that adding: "It's not our fault." Even locals were hit with the restriction. A Udine policeman said: "These are the rules and it is beer only. Advertisement BEST ONLINE CASINOS - TOP SITES IN THE UK "Even the shops and supermarkets have not been allowed to sell alcohol to residents that live here." Alcohol is not the only thing to be axed ahead of the final, after Spurs gaffer Thomas Frank revealed Yves Bissouma had been banished from the Super Cup squad following disciplinary issues. James Maddison could miss 2025-26 season as Tottenham confirm midfielder suffered ACL injury Speaking to reporters before his first competitive game as the north London clubs manager, he said: "Bissouma has not travelled with the team because of disciplinary reasons. Advertisement "He has been late several times and the latest time was one too many. 'With everything you need to give your players a lot of love but also have demands and there also need to be consequences and this time there was a consequence for that. "For me there has been, how can I say it, a consequence for this trip and then I will follow up when I come home. "I will park it now because there is a relatively important game for tomorrow. Advertisement "The captain will be announced for the squad tomorrow. The leadership group will be named at the end of this month." A similar problem has also occurred in PSG's camp, with star goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma being unceremoniously cut from the squad by boss Luis Enrique. The former Barcelona manager said: "Donnarumma is out of the squad as it's my own decision. I am 100 per cent responsible. "These are always difficult decisions, I know that. I can only speak very well of Gigio Donnarumma, he is one of the best players in his role, no doubt. Advertisement "He is an even better person, but we are looking for a different kind of goalkeeper. It is always difficult to manage these kinds of situations." Donnarumma, 26, released a statement venting his frustration - as reports said he was moving closer to a stunning Manchester City transfer. The angry Italian said: "Unfortunately, someone has decided that I can no longer be part of the group and contribute to the team's success. I am disappointed and disheartened. 'I hope to have the opportunity to look the fans at the Parc des Princes in the eyes one more time and say goodbye as it should be done.' Advertisement Spurs have never been in the Super Cup before while PSG lost their only time in it previously back in 1996, meaning there will be a new winner to take the crown this year. 4 TRANSFER NEWS LIVE - KEEP UP WITH ALL THE LATEST FROM A BUSY SUMMER WINDOW
