Ascot tips and results

Our price $3.80 · SP $3.80 · Brad Parnham

Burning Bridges brings the advantage of race experience with a placing from its only start. Brad Parnham rides for his father, and while their combination strike rate isn't exceptional (7%), Brad has been in good form recently with 3 wins from his last 20 rides.

Our price $8.00 · SP $11.00 · Victoria Corver

First-up from a spell and has performed well fresh previously. While barrier 7 isn't ideal and Victoria Corver is yet to win at Ascot, the combination has had 2 previous rides together and the filly's consistent form makes her an appealing value proposition.

Our price $2.20 · SP $2.70 · Clint Johnston-Porter

Noteworthy brings the strongest recent form into this race with a dominant win at Ascot over 1400m. The mare has a strong overall record (27: 6-5-1) and thrives at this track (12: 3-1-0). The Johnston-Porter/Grantham combination is firing at 22% and the mare's tactical versatility allows her to adapt to any tempo scenario. Perfectly drawn in barrier 2 to secure an ideal position.

Our price $4.50 · SP $5.50 · Holly Watson

Without Reg comes into this race off a strong win at Pinjarra and has been racing consistently. The gelding has formed a successful partnership with Holly Watson (2 wins from 10 rides) and has proven competitive at this level previously.

Our price $5.00 · SP $5.50 · Chanel Cooper

Consistent 4YO gelding coming off a strong win in this class last start. Has a solid record at Ascot (18:3-3-2) and draws perfectly in barrier 2. Jockey Chanel Cooper has a strong affinity with this horse (3 wins from 6 rides). While stepping up to 1800m is a query, his racing pattern suggests the distance will suit, and his recent form progression indicates he's ready for this challenge.

Our price $12.00 · SP $31.00 · Holly Watson

Seasoned 9YO gelding with an excellent record at Ascot over this distance (13:3-2-1). Coming off a last-start win at Geraldton over 2100m, suggesting he's in good form despite his age. The class rise is significant, but he's competed successfully at this level before.

Our price $4.00 · SP $3.20 · Patrick Carbery

The advantageous barrier 2 should allow for a positive position in running, and Patrick Carbery (20% recent strike rate) is a significant jockey booking. The first-time nose roll gear change could be a positive, and the jockey/trainer combination has a solid 14% strike rate.

Our price $4.20 · SP $8.00 · Victoria Corver

His perfect first-up record (2 from 2) and tactical versatility make him well-suited to this race setup. Second-up now but has shown enough class to overcome the barrier draw.

Our price $8.00 · SP $13.00 · Steven Parnham

Don't Trust Judas comes off a last-start win at Pinjarra and shows an improving form pattern. He's a proven second-up performer (1 win from 4 starts) and gets a significant class drop here. The wide barrier is a concern with the inside bias, but his versatility should allow him to find a position.

Our price $2.80 · SP $3.00 · Holly Nottle

Supernatural brings excellent credentials with a strong record at both track and distance. Her recent win at Albany followed by a close second at this track demonstrates she's in peak form. The class drop from her recent runs is significant, and her tactical speed should allow her to overcome the slightly awkward draw.

Our price $6.00 · SP $5.00 · Natasha Faithfull

Hey Pino brings consistent recent form including a close second at Bunbury last start. The perfect barrier draw gives him every chance to position well in the run, and his record on good tracks is solid. While he faces a class rise and has limited experience at this track, his tactical speed and improving profile suggest he can be competitive. Natasha Faithfull's recent form is encouraging.

Our price $15.00 · SP $21.00 · Brandon Louis

Won two starts back at Pinjarra and gets in with just 54.5kg. Brandon Louis has won on this horse before and knows how to get the best from him. The wide barrier is a concern, but with the likely fast tempo, he can settle back and run on strongly.

Our price $2.20 · SP $2.45 · William Pike

Territory Man brings the strongest recent form into this race with 2 wins from his last 3 starts. The Pike/Williams combination is elite, and Pike is in red-hot form with 7 wins from his last 20 rides. While untested at 1800m, his strong finishing efforts at 1600m suggest the distance will suit.

Our price $7.50 · SP $6.50 · Clint Johnston-Porter

Sweet Surrender comes into this race off a last-start win over 1600m and has a strong record at similar distances with 1 win and 1 second from 2 attempts. Jockey Clint Johnston-Porter has a good record on this mare (2 wins from 7 rides) and is in good form with 4 wins from his last 20 rides. As a progressive 4yo mare, she still has upside and should handle the step up to 1800m.

Our price $2.20 · SP $2.25 · Clint Johnston-Porter

Despite the wide draw, he has tactical speed to overcome it and boasts a strong fresh record (1 win from 2 first-up starts). His progressive profile suggests further improvement, and trainer Simon Miller has him ready to fire fresh. The class drop is significant and he appears well-weighted with 58.5kg.

Our price $6.00 · SP $11.00 · Chanel Cooper

Mare with excellent recent form coming into this second-up. Has a strong second-up record (1-1-0 from 3 starts) and performs consistently at this track and distance. Chanel Cooper has a good record on the mare (2 wins from 4 rides) and should position her ideally from barrier 9.

Our price $7.50 · SP $9.50 · Brad Parnham

Gelding with strong recent form, finishing a close second last start at Bunbury. Brad Parnham has a strong 27% strike rate with trainer M L Lane. Barrier 7 gives options to settle midfield and finish strongly. The class drop is significant and he appears well-suited to conditions.

Our price $12.00 · SP $61.00 · Zephen Johnston-Porter

The significant class drop works in his favor, and barrier 5 gives him options. While his first-up record is modest (0-1-1 from 5 starts), his last fresh run resulted in a win. Proven at the distance with 2 wins and 4 placings from 21 starts.
