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.

Key Comments Small 7 race card. The best bet is in the last. Expecting those on speed to be suited with the rail true. Best Bet Saiko (Moruya Race 7 No. 2) Can be hard to catch but ticks boxes here. Maps well, goes well at the trip and gets conditions to suit. Doesn't win out of turn but same could be said for most of these.

Suited to this field. Should be able to go right on with things here and

Key Comments The rail is true. The best bet is on earlier in the day and has been brilliant in its trials. Confident on its chances at what is still a back-able price. Best Bet Night People (Cranbourne Race 2 No. 4) Has been superb in trials and looks very hard to beat here fresh. Newitt steers so expecting some front running tactics and showed plenty in the tank in a most recent trial when hitting the front early. Likeable odds and expecting

Key Comments The track is rated Good and the rail is in the true position. Best Bet Isle Eight (Mackay Race 2 No. 1) This gelding from Rockhampton has been runner-up at his last 2 starts there. He tends to get back in his races and runs on. Looks ready to win. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Jo Jackson Each Way Cerared (Mackay Race 3 No. 6) Cerared placed here 3 starts back, then was a
