Back a horse by clicking their odds.
DANTE'S LAD (7.45 Windsor, nap)
George Boughey's three-year-old took a big leap forward when winning a decent handicap at York last time. He came with a strong run and was value for further than the official half-length margin. He likes this trip and there should be more to come.
LEQUINTO (8.45 Windsor, nb)
In the form of his life and has won his past two races around here with ease. He gets on well with today's 7lb claimer and can repeat Saturday's heroics under a penalty.
QUEEN OF STEEL (4.45 Ffos Las, treble)
Another gunning for a hat-trick on the Flat and a 4lb rise for scoring at Pontefract looks more than fair.

TEMPLEGATE tackles Wednesday's action hungry for winners. Back a horse by clicking their odds below. Advertisement ALZAHIR (7.23 Epsom, nap) Jennie Candlish's five-year-old was in sparkling form at Chester when winning over this distance with plenty up his sleeve. That was just four days ago and he ran well here over a stretching seven furlongs last month. His excellent young rider's claim takes off the 5lb penalty and he'll go close. EMILY POST (4.03 Thirsk, nb) Wasn't beaten far at Wetherby last time and has had a welcome nudge down the weights from the handicapper. She is best over this distance and has won stronger races than this. She won't be far away for trainer Michael Dods. Advertisement STINTINO SUNSET (8.30 Epsom, treble) She ran close to her best when just denied at Windsor last time and is back from the same handicap mark in what looks a weaker race. EASY PEELER (5.13 Thirsk, Lucky 15) She tanked along when winning a decent contest at York last time and a 4lb rise is fair for a filly who looks sure to improve under Jason Hart.
