Horse racing tips: ‘He can land a winning hat-trick for his red-hot trainer'- Templegate's unstoppable 5-2 NAP
TEMPLEGATE'S Tuesday picks are below.
Back a horse by clicking their odds.
MR UBIQUITOUS (4.45 Brighton, nap)
He can land a winning hat-trick for his red-hot trainer Harry Eustace in Sussex today. He had more than a length in hand there last time and it could have been a lot further. He carries a 7lb penalty but rider Kaiya Fraser's claim takes care of almost half that. He likes this trip on decent ground and can take another step forward.
He was just touched off at Haydock last time and Sir Mark Prescott's runners usually improve for the hike in distance he gets today.
JET BLACK (3.50 Redcar, treble)
Can land another winner for in-form Andrew Balding. She got no luck when second on handicap debut at Nottingham 18 days ago, going down by less than a length. A repeat of that would be good enough to score.
ALFAREQA (3.00 Leicester, Lucky 15)
Looked a nice prospect when winning on comeback at Doncaster last month. She kept on strongly over 7f so this mile should be ideal. The Frankel filly is having just her third run so there's a lot more to come.

Ronnie O'Sullivan ‘finally' signs up for lucrative side hustle as snooker legend tells fans ‘stay tuned'
SNOOKER icon Ronnie O'Sullivan has confirmed a major decision... by creating a YouTube channel. O'Sullivan, 49, has been treating snooker fans to his greatness with a cue for years. 2 But now the Rocket will be able to spread that joy even more after announcing his latest venture as a YouTuber under the username: @RonnieOSullivan508. The seven-time world champion published his first video on the platform on Wednesday afternoon. Announcing the move on social media, he said: "Finally gone and got a YouTube page… "I will be uploading all sorts here from some of my favourite shots and matches to me cooking to me meeting and chatting to some interesting people. "Hope you guys enjoy it!!" In the 25-second shorts video, backed by the song Dreams by Izabel & Waverly, O'Sullivan did not say a word. Instead, it showed him in hitting a 147 in practice while in Saudi Arabia before the World Championship. The channel had previously shown a clip of him making his 1000th professional century at the 2019 Players Championship final. However, that clip was seemingly swiftly removed. Regardless, the solo video on the channel proved popular with fans as it was watched 4.7k times. Zhao Xintong's classy act towards Ronnie O'Sullivan revealed after knocking legend out of World Snooker Championship The video was also liked more than 500 times on its first day, and has already served to connect his fan base around the globe. Fans were also very supportive of the move, with one saying: "Love you so much Ronnie. I am one of your biggest fans. Welcome to YouTube Legendary Snooker Lord. Greetings and sending lots of love to you from Turkey." A second said: "Watched you in Manchester two years ago and was amazing, you will do so well on YouTube and hopefully keeps you going!!!" A third said: "About time you set a page. Keep it up." Another said: "Congrats Ronnie. Greetings from Moldova." A fifth said: "Hello Ronnie! Loved watching you since I was a kid. All the best for the future of the channel!" O'Sullivan made it to the semi-finals of the most recent Snooker World Championship. There, he suffered a crushing 17-7 defeat to eventual first-time champion Zhao Xintong. The Rocket has already invested in programs for the next generation, including a snooker academy in his name in Saudi Arabia. Speaking about his future, the snooker icon said: "I think I'm going to be moving out of the UK this year. A new life somewhere else. "I'll still try and play snooker but I don't know what the future looks like for me really. "I'm moving away soon so I'll just see how it goes. There's a lot of more important things in life to worry about than a game of snooker. "For me, it's a big part of my life, but I've got to try and figure out what my future looks like, whether it's playing or not. Inside Ronnie's colourful career FROM his lightning breaks to blasts at officials, Ronnie O'Sullivan has fired snooker into the spotlight. The seven-time world champion makes almost as big an impact away from the table as on it. O'Sullivan has three children - two daughters and a son. And the Rocket's on-off relationship with British actress Laila Rouass has also hit the headlines. He has opened up on battles with his weight and addiction. While the controversial cueist reckons he wasted NINE YEARS of his career by partying too hard. Despite being worth £14million, O'Sullivan is renowned for his love of canal boats and snubbing flashy cars. His rivalry with fellow star Judd Trump has been branded 'snooker's greatest feud'. And Ali Carter had his nose knocked out of joint by the Rocket in their infamous 'Snotgate' row.

Tammy Beaumont loving life at the top of the England order with Amy Jones
Tammy Beaumont is relishing her opening partnership with Amy Jones after the pair made back-to-back centuries in England's 143-run victory over West Indies in the second one-day international in Leicester. Beaumont secured her 12th ODI century, just five days after hitting one in Derby alongside Jones, who reached the milestone off just 76 balls, as England posted 366 for six after the 202-run opening stand. West Indies, without captain Hayley Matthews who was ruled out with a shoulder injury, were dismissed for 223 in the 46th over with Realeanna Grimmond hitting a maiden half-century on debut. Beaumont said: 'It's really nice to be batting with Amy at the minute, it's going really well. 'She got the promotion back and we know each other really well. I couldn't have asked for it to go better really, and I think just so proud of her backing up that first century at Derby to do it again today and even better style. 'For her to take that lead role there and kind of look after me as well as go and play like that was just outstanding and I joke with her, I was like, we've got to try and go for the record if we're going to keep batting getting over 200. 'I know we've scored a lot of runs together and I think we've already got a few records for that within England which is just great. 'We compliment each other so well. Obviously, the height difference, but it means we hit different lengths in different areas but I think it makes it quite difficult to bowl at as a pair.' Beaumont was hit with illness before the match and is proud of the way she battled through it to guide her team to another big win. She added: 'I call it man flu, my husband's going to hate me. I'm kind of proud of how I managed it mentally, and kept finding a second and third wind at times. 'I found a bit of gas from somewhere. While Amy was there, my job was to support her and take the pressure off and just get her on strike and then almost my job changed when she got out.'

Inside Michael Schumacher's tragic health battle in Majorca hideaway – as pal makes heartbreaking prediction for future
WITH fists pumping and arms aloft, racing great Michael Schumacher celebrated his many victories with the same energy as his driving. And that is how the Formula One team boss who turned the German legend into a champion three decades ago prefers to think of him. 7 7 Not as the incapacitated survivor of a horrific skiing accident that Schumacher is said to have become. Italian businessman Flavio Briatore said this week: 'If I close my eyes. I see him smiling after a victory. 'I prefer to remember him like that rather than him just lying on a bed.' Flavio's comments reveal the day-to-day struggles faced by the now-reclusive sporting hero, who once epitomised the swashbuckling spirit of adrenaline sport. Schumacher, 56, would go wheel-to-wheel with rivals at extreme speeds on the scariest of bends en route to a record-breaking seven Formula One world championships. Off the track he would party with pals, smoke big cigars, sky dive, scuba dive and fly helicopters. 'Michael communicates with his eyes' But nothing has been seen of Michael since his near-fatal crash on Alpine slopes in France on December 29, 2013. Rumours of medical miracles, appearances, fresh photos and interviews frequently spread online. But a Formula One insider tells The Sun that like Flavio, the world needs to get used to not seeing Michael's beaming smile anymore. Craig Scarborough, who has been covering the sport for around 25 years and interviewed Michael many times, reveals: 'I spoke to someone who is very, very close to him and they just explained we're not going to hear any more from him. 'He's in a comfortable position as far as he can be with his state of health.' It has been reported that only three people see Michael at his secluded home on the Spanish island of Majorca. Even Flavio, 75, who has been a close friend of Michael since they began working together at the Benetton racing team in 1991, has not seen him for a while. But the Italian says he 'often' speaks to Michael's wife Corinna, 56. Much of her time is said to be consumed by maintaining her husband's care and keeping the exact details of his current health condition a secret. And Corinna has also had to cope with the distress of dealing with a blackmail plot. Yilmaz Tozturkan, 53, and his son Daniel Lins, 30, threatened to publish videos and pictures of Michael unless they were given £12million. Security guard Markus Fritsche had copied the private material while working for the Schumachers and sold it to the two men. 7 In February the trio were found guilty of their part in the blackmail plot. Fritsche was given a two-year suspended sentence, while Tozturkan was jailed for three years and Lins was given a six-month suspended prison sentence by a German court. Corinna wanted a harsher sentence for Fritsche. She said: 'What still shocks me most is the massive breach of trust. 'He should receive a punishment for this that deters others from potentially doing the same.' And last October stories emerged claiming that Michael had attended the wedding of his daughter Gina, 27, in Majorca. Guests and staff had to hand over their mobile phones, while security guards made sure no one could snoop on the ceremony or party. But Michael's former Benetton teammate Johnny Herbert said: 'From what I understand, that was all fake news. ' While it remains possible that Schumacher did attend the wedding in a wheelchair, another story was definitely made up. Last year Corinna successfully sued German magazine Die Aktuelle for claiming on its cover 'Michael Schumacher, the first interview!' In fact the quotes had been generated by artificial intelligence. What no outsider can be sure about is whether Michael could give an interview if he wanted to. There have been conflicting accounts of his health condition. When Michael's head hit a boulder in the skiing accident 12 years ago, it split his helmet in two. The brain injury was so serious that he spent 250 days in a coma. The best medical treatment that money could buy brought the sports star, worth £468million, back to consciousness. There had been rumours that further treatment in Paris had allowed Michael to take small steps, but that was later dismissed. 7 7 Most people in the know indicate that he is unable to talk, although it is possible he could use eye movements to send messages like the late scientist Stephen Hawking did. In 2020 Flavio's former wife Elisabetta Gregoraci claimed: 'Michael doesn't speak, he communicates with his eyes.' Friends do visit and he still follows sports. Former Ferrari F1 chief Jean Todt said: 'I can see him but of course, what I miss is what we used to do together. 'I watch Grand Prix with Michael.' Corinna also indicated there was an attempt to maintain normality in difficult circumstances. She said in a 2021 Netflix documentary: 'We're together. 'We live together at home. 'We do therapy. 'We're trying to carry on as a family' 'We do everything we can to make Michael better and to make sure he's comfortable. And to simply make him feel our family, our bond. 'And no matter what, I will do everything I can. We all will. 'We're trying to carry on as a family, the way Michael liked it and still does.' It was reported by German media, ahead of the ten-year anniversary of his skiing accident in 2023, that Schumacher receives 24-hour care from a team of up to 15 people. He has been driven in a Mercedes road car, and played sounds from the F1 track, to stimulate his brain with familiar noises. There has been plenty of good family news to lift Michael's spirits. Last month he became a grandfather for the first time when Gina gave birth to her daughter Millie. And his son Mick, 26, is said to have found love with Danish model Laila Hasanovic, 23, who is reportedly trusted enough to have visited Michael. Mick, who spent two years as a F1 driver, was only 14 when his dad suffered the debilitating head injury. In the Netflix documentary he said he would give 'anything' to talk to him about the sport again. He commented: 'I think dad and I would understand each other in a different way now, simply because we speak a similar language, the language of motorsport, and we would have a lot to talk about. "That's where my head is at most of the time, thinking that would be so cool. I'd give anything just for that.' Craig reckons having close personal time with Mick and other family members is vital for the stricken motorsports star. Physical workload He says: 'I think a lot of people demand stuff from him and I think that's wrong. 'He is himself, and his family have a lot to contend with. 'Until you've cared for somebody, I don't think anyone realises the emotion and the physical workload. "The fact that they have been bold enough to withdraw from public life and not be tempted to do exclusives out there to various people, I think, is noble, and I hope that continues. 'I hope they can find happiness in the situation they find themselves in.' Like Flavio, Craig is more comfortable talking about the Michael people knew before the ski tragedy. He says: 'He was a guy who enjoyed his personal time. 'He loved his family. 'He did lots of lovely things. 'He clearly liked a drink. 'He loved a big cigar. 'But he had lots of time to bring up his son.' While it is understandable that Michael's army of fans want to hear from him again, they may have to make do with recalling his past glories. There were certainly more than enough of them for Flavio and others to remember.
