Signposts: Platinum can coast clear for Tate

Theo 3.25 Ayr
It’s worth paying attention to Richard Newland’s runners at Ayr, where he has a 43 per cent strike-rate. Sam Twiston-Davies takes the ride on Theo, who has struck five times from six aboard the gelding.

Platinum Coast 4.35 Kempton
James Tate has been in flying form recently and applies first-time cheekpieces to Platinum Coast. The trainer has a 25 per cent strike-rate over the past two seasons when debuting the aid, as the three-year-old tackles a mile for the first time.
