Saturday Racing Tips - Ascot Racecourse 05/04/25

Saturday racing swings around once more at Ascot, with some of the biggest names in Western Australian racing in action.

All 9 races have plenty riding on them and  OnlyRacing are on hand to help dig out the very best bets of the day.

(Note: Odds provided by Playup)

Selections:
2. Jaz Session - $2.00
1. Sky Duke - $3.00
3. Fortune's Luck - $6.50

BEST BET - Jaz Session - $2.00
Following two impressive wins over this course and distance, nothing currently looks capable of stopping Jaz Session. It won at a canter here last week and this is a similar contest on paper.

THE DANGER - Sky Duke - $3.00
How much could have changed in a week, as Sky Duke looks to claw back the gap it couldn't handle just 7 days ago. It will chase hard and is a good horse but it has work to do to catch Jaz Session.

VALUE BET - Fortune's Luck - $6.50
Dropping down in distance here will be Fortune's Luck, a horse well accustomed to conditions at Ascot. This should be a stern test over just 1000m though, with 1400m+ much more its bag.

Selections:
2. Watch Me Rock - $1.80
3. Fluro Neuro - $3.50
4. Memory Parade - $6.50

BEST BET - Watch Me Rock - $1.80
William Pike gets the nod on Watch Me Rock here, a horse that looks set to continue its unbelievable record at Ascot. It won so comfortably last week and a trip up in the weights should be no issue at all.

THE DANGER - Fluro Neuro - $3.50
Stablemate Fluro Neuro is a very willing challenger but as was the case last week, it will be difficult to usurp Watch Me Rock at the top of the market. The conditions should suit though and it could be a Williams yard 1-2 at the finish line.

VALUE BET - Memory Parade - $6.50
Form has eluded Memory Parade in the past few races but it remains an excellent horse, especially in conditions such as these at Ascot and the 1600m trip looks absolutely ideal.

Selections:
1. Stylish Lord - $3.50
3. Premium Girl - $4.50
5. Blazing Emerald - $7.00

BEST BET - Stylish Lord - $3.50
A superb win at Ascot a couple of weeks ago has propelled Stylish Lord to the top of the market for this one and it will be the standard setter. It knows its way around this track better than most and will be tough to stop.

THE DANGER - Premium Girl - $4.50
Another prolific horse here at Ascot is Premium Girl and it will be gunning to return to the winner's enclosure. A huge tick in the box is the familiarity at racing at 1800m, which could prove telling.

VALUE BET - Blazing Emerald - $7.00
Winning is a habit and Blazing Emerald is firmly in the groove currently for connections. This is a step up in trip and quality but Blazing Emerald looks a great price to compete.
