Templegate & Other Big Name NAPs
The newspaper heavyweights have gone in three different directions for Monday, and it gives you a nice spread across the card. Templegate keeps it jumps-based up at Ayr, Robin Goodfellow heads to Wolverhampton for an afternoon all-weather play, while Newsboy waits until the evening to strike on the same card. These are the NAPs that often shape the market through the day, especially once the price movers start to appear closer to post time.

- Robin Goodfellow - Albert Cee (Wolverhampton 16:25) 9/4
- Newsboy - Akrivos (Wolverhampton 20:30) 9/2
