Our Ascot Horse Racing Tips for Wednesday’s meeting.
Spritely Star (Ascot Race 5 No. 11)
This three-year-old filly has only had two race starts but has notched up a win and a place. She debuted for 1.86 lengths 2nd over 1200m at Pinjarra Park on 6 January where she wound up steadily, then she ran on strongly for a 0.38 length win over 1413m at Pinjarra Park on 21 January. Her final 400m sectionals were good in both runs and she looks well-placed here.

Each Way
King’s Authority (Ascot Race 8 No. 2):
This six-year-old Snitzel gelding has raced 43 times and although he has only won twice he has placed 19 times, including at his last three starts. He ran on strongly six wide down the straight for 0.41 length 2nd over 1100m at Esperance on 2 January, then he looked the winner but was picked off late for 0.68 lengths 2nd over 1200m at Ascot on 20 January. Looks a good each-way chance here.

Best Lay
My Hidden Journey (Ascot Race 2 No. 1):
This four-year-old Good Journey gelding is the early favourite in this 2YO & Up Maiden over 1200m. He ran on strongly for 0.96 length 2nd in a Belmont maiden over 1200m on 2 September, then was disappointing when 4.76 lengths 10th in Belmont maiden over 1300m on 19 September and was sent for a spell. Resuming after 20 weeks he has not even placed in three previous first-up starts and I’m willing to risk him.

Horse Racing Tips: NSW Tuesday 22nd October 2024
Key Comments The track is in the soft 6 range. Looking no further than the first race of the day for the best bet who has trialled up very well and will take a power of beating on debut. Best Bet Socrazyinlove (Orange Race 1 No. 10) Trials have been excellent and the stable have opted for this race as the right target. Collett rides from the good draw, the early market support is ideal and this race looks very much within reach.

Key Comments Expecting on pace runners to be suited on this tight turning track. The best bet will need some luck from the wide draw but does its best racing here. Best Bet Brooklyn Baby (Kyneton Race 7 No. 5) Boasts a strong first up record and very good record at the track. Keating knows the horse very well and he can land it up on speed from the wide draw. Around the $7.50 mark at time of typing is strong odds.

Key Comments The track is in the soft range. The best bet has been a model of consistency lately and can score a well overdue win. Expecting the track to suit leaders as it traditionally does. Best Bet Ausbred Cooee (Grafton Race 3 No. 5) Due for a win off back to back placings and this looks if anything, slightly easier than last start despite reading the same grade. In very well at the weights after the claim, flies on this track and

Key Comments There are 8 races. The track is soft and the rail in the true position. Best Bet Colonel Parker (Gatton Race 2 No. 8) Runner-up at Toowoomba at his only start. Should take improvement from that experience and should be hard to beat from the good barrier.
