Our Ascot Horse Racing Tips for the weekend.
Tambora (Ascot Race 3 No. 6)
This Puissance de Lune gelding trained by Darren Mcauliffe at Lark Hill has only had one start, but won that most impressively. He led all the way to win by 4.57 lengths in a 1500m maiden race at Ascot on 23 December. Drawn perfectly in barrier 1 and with William Pike to ride him he looks to have a bright future ahead of him and looks ready to win again.

Each Way
Tinto Belle (Ascot Race 4 No. 6):
This five-year-old mare trained by Bruce Watkins has three wins and two places from 11 starts. She resumed from a 17 week spell for 0.5 length 2nd over 1000m at Ascot on 9 December, then took over late for a 0.55 length win over 1000m at Ascot on 23 December. Dhe has drawn wide in barrier 11 but is still worthy of an each-way bet.

Mood Swings (Ascot Race 8 No. 8):
This four-year-old War Chant gelding is the early favourite in this One Metro Win Graduation handicap over 1200m. At the end of last campaign he dropped out in the straight to finish 15.88 lengths 9th over 1300m at Belmont, then after a 22 week spell resumed to just miss and finish a close 2nd over 1000m at Ascot on 26 December. He has drawn wide and in an open race I am prepared to risk him.

Key Comments The track is in the soft range. The rail is in the true position. The best bet lobs in the first and is ready to win. Should get every hope from the kind draw.

Key Comments The feature is the $50,000 Metric Mile over 1600m (race 7). The track is sand and is rated good and the weather is fine. Best Bet Miss Polly (Darwin Race 1 No. 6) She came from the outside barrier to be runner-up on debut over 1200m here. Emma Lines rides again and has a 1.5 kg claim, and this time she has draw the rails. Hard to beat. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Jo Jackson
