Our Ascot Horse Racing Tips for the weekend.
The feature races are the Natasha Stakes for 3YO fillies (race 5) and the J.C. Roberts Stakes for 3YO C&G’s (race 7).
Western Empire (Ascot Race 7 No. 1)
This three-year-old gelding trained by Grant and Alana Williams has two wins and four places from seven starts. He was outsprinted to finish 1.63, 1.95 lengths 3rd in the Listed Challenge Stakes over 1500m at Ascot on 13 February, then won by 5.5 lengths in the Listed Lex Piper Stakes over 1600m at Ascot on 27 February. That was a very impressive win and he should win again.

Each Way
Sir Mambo (Ascot Race 4 No. 1):
This five-year-old War Chant gelding has not been far from the winner in his two starts back from a 20 week spell. On resuming he fought evenly to the line for 1.34 lengths 4th over 1100m at Ascot on 23 January, then he had a tough run and finished 0.78, 0.46 length 3rd over 1200m at Ascot on 13 February. He has won three races at this track and with a 2kg claim he looks worth an each-way bet.

Best Lay
Secret Lair (Ascot Race 1 No. 3):
This Galah colt is the early favourite in this 2YO Plate over 1200m. He has only had one start and finished 0.16, 2.77 lengths 3rd over 1100m at Ascot on 13 February. That was a nice debut effort but he offers no value at the current price.

Key Comments On pace runners suited on this track which is in the good range. The 8 race card takes place with the best in the last. Best Bet Vizie (Ararat Race 8 No. 6) Solid win last start and can go on with it now. Drawn wide but shouldn't be too much of a problem over the staying trip and should have the finish to beat this lot. Hard to hold out. Analyst: Bryce Parker

Key Comments The feature is the Muswellbrook Gold Cup (race 7) and is for Big Dance Eligibility later on in the year. The best bet is knocking on the door and will be tough to beat from the kind draw. Best Bet Merchant Gold (Muswellbrook Race 4 No. 6) Maps for a good run and has put a few placings together in a row. Finds a suitable field and should come into decent market support and be hard to hold out in

Key Comments Night racing at Cranbourne. A decent card to get stuck into. The best bet is a maiden knocking on the door and comes up at nice odds. Multiple short priced favourites look very hard to beat on the card. Best Bet I Only Wish (Cranbourne Race 4 No. 7) Solid effort resuming and has been knocking on the door. Looks the right price to be shedding the maiden tag and should be giving this a red hot shake.

Key Comments There is a 9 race meeting where the track is rated soft and the rail is +1 metre the entire circuit. Best Bet Strathcona (Townsville Race 5 No. 3) Last start winner at this track and distance after losing the rider at the start the previous race and winning the 2 before that. Jackson Murphy has had success on him before. Strong chance. Analyst: Jo Jackson Each Way Catalina Dreaming
