Temple
Temple has never won a race, but there is something quietly compelling about its record all the same. In five races, this three-year-old has placed three times — finishing third on three separate occasions — which tells you it is consistently competitive without yet finding the extra gear needed to get its nose in front. A win rate of zero from five is obviously not what anyone hopes for, but placing in more than half its races suggests this is a horse that belongs at the level it is running at, not one that is simply making up the numbers.Based on TrackLab's analysis

What makes Temple worth watching is the timing. It raced just yesterday, meaning it is right in the middle of its season and very much a work in progress. At three years old, horses are still developing physically and mentally, and plenty improve significantly as the campaign goes on. The three placings are a foundation — the question is whether a small step forward in performance turns one of those thirds into a first.
Temple is trained by Jane Chapple-Hyam at her yard in Dalham, Suffolk. The operation has sent out 24 winners already this season, which is a solid, productive tally and signals a stable in good form. Chapple-Hyam is an experienced hand, and having a consistent yard behind a horse that keeps placing is an encouraging combination. If Temple is going to convert one of those near-misses, it is in a reasonable place to do it.
