Our Ascot Horse Racing Tips for the weekend.
The main race is the Group 3 Northerly Stakes.
Notorious One (Ascot Race 4 No. 8)
This five-year-old Animal Kingdom gelding has only had two starts, but has won them both. He had the best closing 400m of the meeting when he won by 2.68 lengths over 1300m at Belmont on 16 September, then he went straight to a class 3 which he won by 0.29 length over 1400m at Belmont on 28 September. He looks to have a bright future and is my pick here.

Massimo (Ascot Race 8 No. 6):
This four-year-old Sessions gelding has eight wins and seven places from 18 starts. He won by 1.11 lengths over 1650m at Belmont on 22 August, then won the Listed Farnley Stakes by 1.66 lengths over 1400m at Belmont on 12 September. He has 3 wins and 2 places from 7 starts at Ascot and at the current price he looks a great each-way bet.

Rewrite The Stars (Ascot Race 2 No. 2):
This four-year-old mare is the early favourite in this no metropolitan wins handicap over 1200m. She wound up gamely to win in the last few strides over 1200m at Pimjarra Park on 9 July, then finished 6.76 lengths 9th over 1200m at Belmont on 1 August. She has had an 11 week let-up but has not won at Ascot before and does not represent value.

Horse Racing Tips: VIC Friday 4th October 2024
Key Comments The track is in the good range. The best bet has some strong lines and resumes from a break with Fry in the saddle. Best Bet Colleano (Warrnambool Race 7 No. 1) Brings some tidy form lines into this contest including a debut win over Quickster which reads well for this. Recent jumpouts have been rock solid and Fry does the steering from the kind draw. The early market support is a positive sign. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Bryce

Key Comments The track is rated soft and the rail is +4 metres the entire circuit. Best Bet Redford (Doomben Race 2 No. 12) Redford has won 3 of his 4 starts. James Orman has had success on him before and he should get a soft run from the good gate. Commands respect.

Key Comments The track is rated good and the rail is back to the true position. Best Bet Tippa (Morphettville Race 9 No. 2) Tippa has placed at both starts this time in, most recently in the Balaklava Cup. This is a bit easier than last start and he has won at this track and trip before. Top chance. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Jo Jackson Each Way Santastico (Morphettville Race 8 No. 2) He has

Key Comments It's an evening meeting with the first race at 5.40pm. The turf track is rated soft and the rail is +5 metres the entire circuit. Best Bet Cryptic Prism (Sunshine Coast Race 4 No. 8) He’s only had 2 starts. He won on debut over 1100m at Rockhampton then was runner-up over 1000m at Sunshine Coast where he ran on well. The 1200m should suit and he rates highly. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Jo Jackson
