Horse racing tips: Catterick and Lingfield – Templegate’s betting preview for the racing this Thursday, December 28

TRIOPAS (nap) is something to shout about in Catterick’s 3.15.

He’s improving fast having notched up his third win in four starts when bolting up at Towcester last week. His prominent style of racing is well suited to this track.

LAKE FIELD (2.05 Catterick, nb) was an easy winner at Newbury eight days ago.

The drop to two miles seemed to do the trick and he looks some way ahead of the handicapper.

THE SWEENEY (1.25 Leicester, treble) has shown plenty of ability in a bumper and two hurdle races.

This is easier than the Chepstow novice contest he was third in last time and heavy ground is not a problem.
