Our Ascot Horse Racing Tips for the weekend.
The feature races is the Karrakatta Plate over 1200m (race 8).
Pletto (Ascot Race 6 No. 9)
This five-year-old Playing God mare has four wins and eight places from 12 starts. She had a good final 400m sectional when she finished 0.65 length 2nd over 1400m at Bunbury on 6 March, then peeled three wide and ran on strongly for a 0.38 length win over 1400m at Ascot on 20 March. With barrier 2 and William Pike riding she should win again.

Each Way
Scooter’s Machine (Ascot Race 1 No. 1):
This six-year-old Maschino gelding is running well at the moment. He tried hard but couldn’t catch the leader when 1.68 lengths 2nd over 1200m at Bunbury on 6 March, then was running 2nd before fading late over 1400m at Ascot on 20 March. Back to a shorter trip he looks a good each-way bet.

Best Lay
Billy Ain’t Silly (Ascot Race 3 No. 1):
This I’m All the Talk gelding is the early favourite in this 3YO Handicap over 1400m. He resumed after 29 weeks for 0.07, 2.2 lengths 3rd over 1200m at Pinjarra Park on 3 March, then led all the way for a 1.34 length win over 1200m at Pinjarra Park on 18 March. This is a tougher race and he doesn’t represent value.

Horse Racing Tips: QLD Saturday 4th May 2024
Key Comments The features are the Dalrello Stakes (race 6), Victory Stakes (race 8) and the Queensland Guineas (race 9). The track is soft and the rail is +7 metres the entire circuit. Best Bet Typhoon Taavi (Eagle Farm Race 3 No. 3) This mare from the Tony Gollan stable has won her last 2 races by big margins. She has heaps of natural speed and gets a 3kg claim for Tahlia Fenton who has had success on her before. Leading hope. Check

Key Comments The rail is true. The best bet is off the back of a strong second placing and looks hard to hold out launching from the good draw. Best Bet Red Red Wine (Echuca Race 8 No. 5) He has been hard to catch lately but was keen on him earlier this prep when he was smashed in the market and ran on well in a higher grade than this. Gets his chance in this field and should relish the drop in

Key Comments The rail is out 8 metres. The track played well last time. Suspect with the rail out that far it may suit those on speed. The best bet looks double the price it should be. Best Bet Cadmus (Caulfield Heath Race 3 No. 1) Hard to beat. Brilliant return up a few grades than this and looks superbly treated in this with the drop in grade. Smart move with the claim and is 1/1 over this trip. Check odds on

Key Comments The track is rated soft and the rail is in true position for the 10 race meeting. Best Bet Flying D'amore (Kilcoy Race 4 No. 5) Filly from the Annabel Neasham stable who resumed for 5th over 1200m at Doomben on 17th April. Will find this easier and looks the leading chance.
