Templegate's Ascot Champions Day Placepot tips<\/strong><\/p>\n

LEG 1 Kyprios<\/p>\n

KYPRIOS can catch his rivals napping. It\u2019s a long time since the Aidan O\u2019Brien superstar dropped down to this Group 2 level.<\/p>\n

He sadly missed most of this season before blowing away the cobwebs when second at The Curragh last time.<\/p>\n

You would have liked to see him win but he was coming back from 11 months off and today was the target.<\/p>\n

LEG 2 Kinross, Vadream<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

KINROSS is Frankie Dettori\u2019s best chance of winner on the card and his old pal can deliver again in the Champions Sprint.<\/p>\n

The Italian was on board 12 months ago when winning this race in a scorching time.<\/p>\n

He\u2019s been in good form this season, winning the Lennox at Goodwood and York\u2019s City of York Stakes before an unlucky second at Longchamp latest when he was hampered by the winner.<\/p>\n

He stays and this will feel like further than six furlongs and soft ground is no issue.<\/p>\n

Vadream loves soft ground and has run well in the past two runnings of this. She is another who can go close.<\/p>\n

LEG 3 Rue Boissonade, Free Wind<\/p>\n

RUE BOISSONADE looks a big price in a wide open Fillies And Mares.<\/p>\n

Veteran jockey Gerald Mosse was on board in the Group 1 Prix Royallieu at Longchamp last time where he flew home from the back to finish fourth.<\/p>\n

She filled the same position in the Vermeille and a repeat of that effort gives her strong claims. She\u2019s won on soft ground and has few miles on the clock so can improve.<\/p>\n

FREE WIND is the obvious danger under Dettori. Unusually for a Galileo mare, she\u2019s done almost all her racing on fast ground but is bred to like these conditions.<\/p>\n

She needs to bounce back from a poor run in France but enjoys this trip and the Gosdens have a good record in this race.<\/p>\n

LEG 4 Paddington<\/p>\n

PADDINGTON will love getting back on soft and can add to his tally of four Group 1 wins.<\/p>\n

He found the going too quick at York after a smooth Sussex Stakes success in the mud at Goodwood. He showed a liking for Ascot when taking the St James\u2019s Palace Stakes.<\/p>\n

LEG 5 Bay Bridge, King Of Steel<\/p>\n

BAY BRIDGE has been plotted for this race by Sir Michael Stoute ever since he crossed the line in front 12 months ago.<\/p>\n

He kicked off this season with a close-up third in a French Group 1 on soft before a good effort in the Tattersalls Gold Cup at The Curragh.<\/p>\n

The ground was too quick for him at the Royal meeting here before he used his class to score in a Kempton Group 3.<\/p>\n

He warmed up for this with a decent effort in the Arc last time, again finding the ground too quick. These conditions are ideal and he can go close.<\/p>\n

KING OF STEEL is proven on slow ground and his stamina will be an asset in these conditions.<\/p>\n

He backed up his Derby second with a win at the Royal meeting and ran a cracker in the Irish version of this race. He can give Frankie a thrill on his last British ride \u2013 for now at least.<\/p>\n

LEG 6 Migration, Awaal, Raadobarg<\/p>\n

MIGRATION was an impressive winner of one of the best Lincolns we\u2019ve had in years.<\/p>\n

David Menuisier\u2019s seven-year-old sailed through the deep mud on Town Moor and should have similar conditions here.<\/p>\n

He has a good middle draw and we know he saves his best for a big-field cavalry charge so forget his poor showing in a small field last time.<\/p>\n

He goes well fresh and his excellent trainer has saved him for this. He has a big weight but can cope with it.<\/p>\n

AWAAL was a good third in the Royal Hunt Cup here and went close in a Redcar Listed race last time.<\/p>\n

He handles soft ground and is 1lb lower than that Royal meeting effort which gives him every chance.<\/p>\n

Baradar will love these conditions and was impressive when winning here and again at Doncaster last time.<\/p>\n

The only worry with him is the trip as he\u2019s proven best over seven furlongs so far although he was third in the 2020 Group 1 Futurity over a mile so should stay.<\/p>\n

RAADOBARG needs soft ground and it was too quick for him at Newmarket last week where he was still an excellent third in the Group 3 Darley Stakes. This test will suit him better.<\/p>\n

Templegate's World Pool tips<\/strong><\/p>\n

IT\u2019S our last chance of the year to have a bet into the World Pool.<\/p>\n

In the international Tote, every player puts their wagers into one big pool which hopefully means bigger returns for your winners.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s operated by the Tote in the UK and you can place your bets at tote.co.uk, via the Tote app or at the Tote windows on the track.<\/p>\n

You can bet win or each-way but there are a couple of options to go for bigger payouts.<\/p>\n

The Swinger is one. Here you have to pick two of the first three past the post in any order.<\/p>\n

The Champion Fillies and Mares looks a good candidate for this bet. Cross-Channel raider RUE BOISSONADE will love the testing conditions and can get her head in the first three.<\/p>\n

Being a daughter of Galileo, FREE WIND should enjoy getting her toe in and is the second pick.<\/p>\n

A Quinella is the first and second in any order. The Queen Elizabeth II Stakes looks a good race for that bet.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s hard to get past PADDINGTON given how strong his form has been over this distance. He has to go in.<\/p>\n

French hope BIG ROCK will go off in front and is likely to take lots of pegging back. He can hold on for the forecast spot.<\/p>\n
