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.

Key Comments Expecting those who can sustain a long run to be suited. The best bet has been knocking on the door and finds the perfect race to be breaking maiden. Best Bet It'sreel (Wagga Riverside Race 2 No. 1) Efforts have been excellent this prep including a last start third to Keeneland which leaps off the paper form wise for a race of this depth. Expecting It'sreel to get a nice run in transit from barrier 6 and finds a very suitable

Key Comments The track is in the soft range. Expecting all runners to have their chance. Going with those in form and despite the best and next best needing luck from their wide draws they both find very suitable races. Best Bet Dundas (Narromine Race 5 No. 10) Tough draw for Dundas but looks on track after a solid third placing last start and does have a good record with Gallagher aboard. This race lacks depth and if he can land it on

Key Comments There are 8 races on the turf track where the track is rated soft and the rail is +4 metres from the 900m to the winning post and +2 metres for the remainder. Best Bet Rebel Shadow (Gold Coast Race 6 No. 3) Unlucky last start when he was held up until the 250m and then ran on strongly for 0.1 length 2nd. Drawn perfectly here and should be able to win.

Key Comments Keep an eye on track conditions. Usually a fair playing track. Big confidence in the best bet who drops a few grades and can win for us. Best Bet Trafalgar Square (Newcastle Race 4 No. 6) Looks the absolute right race for Trafalgar Square. Coming off a 1 length loss in mid week grade, prior to that a 3 length loss behind Ameena and Manaal. Surprised if it doesn't win this. $2.80 is massive odds. Check odds on SmartB Analyst:
