TEMPLEGATE has been firing in the winners of late and he's confident of continuing his good form on Oaks day.
Read on to find our man's top tips for Friday as the Derby Festival gets underway.
ZEYAADAH (4.30 Epsom, nap)
She was unlucky at Chester last time when needing her comeback.
She finished full of running and will relish this longer trip. Handling the Roodee’s roller coaster bodes well for Epsom.

BLUE CUP (3.45 Epsom, nb)
He ran well here on comeback in April when a close-up fifth in a similar race.
He didn’t fire at York after that so has had a nudge down the weights and the first-time hood can help with Oisin Murphy taking over on top.
STORTING (2.35 Epsom, treble)
He was impressive when winning the Thirsk Hunt Cup last time, digging deep to fight them off in the final furlong.
A 5lb rise in the weights is fair for that and it’s a wise move to keep him at the mile.
