SportHorse Racing TEMPLEGATE’S Thursday tips are below. Follow him in and back a horse simply by clicking their odds. A MAJOR PAYNE (7.41 Windsor, nap) Michael Bell’s five-year-old has been in the form of his life this summer and bolted up over course and distance last month. He has gone up 6lb but that is unlikely to be enough to stop him in his current mood with the red-hot Billy Loughnane in the saddle. COUNTER INTUITIVE (7.34 Salisbury, nb) Is beautifully bred and is starting to get the hang of things. She followed up her maiden win at Thirsk with a comfortable victory at Newmarket and has much more to offer over a mile and a half off a decent mark. COLOURBAND (6.41 Windsor, treble) Caught the eye when second over ten furlongs at Ayr last time, travelling powerfully but not quite getting home. She looks nicely treated and the combination of a drop back to a mile and a first-time tongue tie can see her go one better.
