Our Ascot Horse Racing Tips for the weekend.
Tommy Blue (Ascot Race 8 No. 2)
This four-year-old Gingerbread Man mare trained by Simon Miller has had nine starts for two wins and five places. She resumed from a 29 week spell for 5.58 lengths 10th over 1000m at Ascot on 31 October where the trainer believed she needed further, then she fought hard to overhaul the leader late for a 1.69 length win over 1200m at Pinjarra Park on 1 January. William Pike is riding and she looks the likely winner.

Sir Mambo (Ascot Race 4 No. 1):
This five-year-old War Chant gelding has four wins and 11 places from 25 starts. He loomed up at the 150m and looked a big chance but his run peaked and he finished 0.67 lengths 5th over 1200m at Belmont on 22 August, then he ran 1.86 lengths 4th over 1200m at Belmont on 5 September. Resuming here, he has placed at two of his three first-up starts and is worth an each-way bet.

We’ve Got Dreams (Ascot Race 9 No. 1):
This four-year-old Universal Ruler mare is the early favourite in this Rtg 72+ Handicap over 1000m. She won over 1000m at Belmont on 8 August, then tired in the last 200m to finish 2.44 lengths 6th over 1000m at Belmont on 29 August. Resuming from a 21 week spell she looks risky and others represent better value.

Key Comments There is a huge 11-race program where the feature is the Group 3 Queen Mother Memorial Cup over 2400m (race 8). The rail is in the B position. There is plenty of rain forecast so the track will be a yielding surface. The first race is at 12.30 pm Hong Kong time which is 2.30 pm AEST. Best Bet Storming Dragon (Sha Tin Race 7 No. 8) Storming Dragon finished a length 3rd at his only start. He’s won a trial
