Our Ascot Horse Racing Tips for the weekend.
Western Empire (Ascot Race 8 No. 4)
This four-year-old Iffraaj gelding trained by Grant & Alana Williams has five wins and four place from 10 starts. He was a 0.7 length winner of the Listed Melvista Stakes over 2200m at Ascot on 27 March, then a 0.8 length winner of the Group 2 WATC Derby over 2400m at Ascot on 10 April. Resumes from a 27 week spell and has won both trials. Looks well placed here in the Group 3 Northerly Stakes and should win.

Image Keeper (Ascot Race 3 No. 2):
This five-year-old Scandal Keeper gelding trained by Brock Lewthwaite has three wins from six starts and is the early favourite in this four-years-old and upwards No Metro Wins Handicap over 1200m. At the end of last campaign he finished 2.2 lengths 6th over 1200m at Ascot on 1 May before a 20 week spell. He resumed for 2.6 lengths 6th over 1300m at Belmont on 18 September and ran 3rd in a trial on 4 October. There are some handy horses in this race and others offer better value.

Horse Racing Tips: QLD Tuesday 30th April 2024
Key Comments The track is rated Soft and the rail is +0.5 metres from the 1000m to the winning post and +1.5 metres for the remainder. Best Bet Chilli Jam (Townsville Race 7 No. 16) She is absolutely flying and has won all 4 starts this campaign. She gets a 3 kg claim for Isabella Teh who rode her last start for a 3 length win. Can make it 5 in a row. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Jo Jackson

Key Comments The rail is true. The best bet can land us a win in the first. Best Bet Blue Steel (Quirindi Race 1 No. 3) Has been sound in both efforts to date and this race lacks any depth. The 5th last start is better than it reads on paper and that is in a race much harder than this. Goes in the mix here. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Bryce Parker Each Way Tingler (Quirindi Race 2 No. 8) A lot to like about the debut run on good footing but has battled on heavy tracks in the 3 runs since. Looks suited here getting back onto dry ground and this 3yo Filly has claims.

Key Comments A big 10 race card takes place. The rail is in 3 metres. The track usually suits those who can sustain a long run to the line. That will suit the best bet who loves racing here and comes up later in the day. Best Bet Swanston (Grafton Race 7 No. 2) Has a booming turn of foot and while Swanston doesn't have the easiest pattern to catch, this track does suit and that shows with the 9 placings from 16

Key Comments The Warrnambool carnival kicks off and the 2?? feature races of day one are the Vobis Gold Strike (race 5) & the Merlin Handicap (race 7). The best bet has a superb first up record and brings in the class factor. The rail is true. Best Bet Claidheamh Mor (Warrnambool Race 8 No. 1) Brings in a brilliant first up record, maps to lead the field and relishes soft conditions. The early price has been taken and this 5yo Gelding has
