NAPS for today's racing as Matt Chapman and Templegate go head-to-head at Chel ·
Charlotte Adams IT'S that time of the week where our expert tipsters give us their best bets ahead of the weekend racing.
Both have headed north to Doncaster for their main fancy on a busy day of top jumping action!
Last week Chappers extended his lead after Altior made an impressive return to action in the Tingle Creek.
The champion chaser returned at odds of 8-13 - but he won like a 5s on shot!
Templegate was out of luck as his fancy in the Becher Chase Highland Lodge got loose before the race and then fell at the sixth fence.
It's all to play for as we approach the festive period.
Standings after Week 11
Matt Chapman +5.65
Templegate -1

I know, I know, this selection is just before ITV go on air, but I'm so hot on it I couldn't not have it as my NAP!
ROCKY'S TREASURE will be very hard to beat in the 1.35pm at Doncaster.
I love to see Kim Bailey doing well, and with Charbel and Rocky he's had a great time of things.
Although beaten last time Rocky's Treasure's second to Santini at Newbury was a fine performance.
Yeeehaaa!

Templegate
Go for IRISH ROE (2.10 Doncaster) at her favourite venue.
She made it two wins from two visits over this track and trip when landing this race 12 months ago.
Her close course second behind Maria’s Benefit in a mares’ Grade 2 the following month was even better and she’s been in good form this season.
She was third behind Lady Buttons in a Listed race at Wetherby on her comeback run and she was still travelling well when she crashed out at the last in the Greatwood Hurdle at Cheltenham last month.
I really fancy her chances.
