Our Ascot Horse Racing Tips for Wednesday’s meeting.
No Apology (Ascot Race 3 No. 1)
This four-year-old Declaration Of War gelding has four placings from five runs this preparation. He ran on strongly to almost get there in the final stride for a narrow 2nd over 1675m at Bunbury on 11 February, then got to the front but was overhauled out wide for 1.22, 0.02 length 3rd over 1600m at Ascot on 27 February. He is ready to win in this small field.

Each Way
Winsalot (Ascot Race 6 No. 9):
This three-year-old War Chant filly has raced nine times for one win and two places. She ran on strongly to win a maiden over 1300m at Pinjarra on 21 February, then peeled wide and ran on for 2.39 lengths 2nd over 1500m at Ascot on 10 March. On a seven day back-up here she should settle just off the speed and is well worth an each-way bet.

Best Lay
Congreve Rocket (Ascot Race 7 No. 7):
This three-year-old Starspangledbanner gelding has one win and one place from four starts and is the early favourite in this Class 3 Handicap over 1200m. He led to the turn but was winded in the straight for 4.17 lengths 9th over 1200m at Ascot on 24 October, then led but was swamped in the final 100m for 1.77 lengths 5th over 1100m at Ascot on 3 November. Returning from a 19 week spell he was 3rd in a Pinjarra Park trial recently but I think he will find this too hard first up.

Horse Racing Tips: NT Saturday 29th March 2025
Key Comments There are 7 races and the feature is the $40,000 Chief Minister's Cup over 1600 metres (race 7). The sand track is rated good and the rail remains in the true position. Best Bet Hasseltoff (Alice Springs Race 7 No. 5) In great form winning 5 of 7 races this preparation. Comes off 3 wins in a row all by decent margins and has won both times he’s raced here. Should be winning. Analyst: Jo Jackson

Key Comments The track is in the good range. The best bet was excellent last prep and can resume a winner in the last of the day. Best Bet Alternate (Avoca Race 8 No. 2) Didn't miss the quinella last prep and is an ultra consistent type who should be primed for this first up affair. Can roll forward from the draw and give this a shake. Analyst: Bryce Parker Each Way

Key Comments The track is in the soft range. The best bet has been heavily backed and just needs luck from the draw to be winning at a price. Best Bet Yamba's Girl (Port Macquarie Race 4 No. 2) Stuck on the one win but finds a great chance to make it two. Lost in this grade by a head 2 runs back and far from disgraced up in grade in its last run. Drawn wide but does have the class edge
