Saturday Racing Tips - Ascot Racecourse 19/04/25

Derby day is always a significant one on the calendar for Australian racing fans and Ascot should be ready to rock.

While the Derby will make the headlines, there are plenty of other strong races on the card, on what should be a great day of racing.

(Note: Odds provided by Playup)

Selections:
5. Prospector's Pick - $2.50
6. Six Shooter - $3.80
3. Tawkin' Jibberish - $4.60

BEST BET - Prospector's Pick - $2.50
Following half a year off the track, it isn't easy to work out where Prospector's Pick is at but this is a horse that has bags of potential and it looks well placed to return with a win here.

THE DANGER - Six Shooter - $3.80
Similarly, Six Shooter has been out of action for a long time but this is the type of contest that it has produced some very good results in previously. It will need to hit the ground running in this company though.

VALUE BET - Tawkin' Jibberish - $4.60
Recent showings from Tawkin' Jibberish have been hugely impressive and it has picked up some very good results at Ascot recently, making it the in-form offering in this field.

Selections:
4. Let's Talk - $2.50
3. Bondi Plunge - $4.20
1. Hymns Of Eladdair - $5.50

BEST BET - Let's Talk - $2.50
With a rampant win at Belmont last time out, Let's Talk is the form pick here and this trip at Ascot looks to be ideal. The yard are bang in nick and if it gets a run, it will be very tough to stop.

THE DANGER - Bondi Plunge - $4.20
Bondi Plunge came very close to a big win over this course and distance last time out and hasn't been penalised too heavily in the weights as a result. It knows its way around this track though and it should be in the hunt with a clear run.

VALUE BET - Hymns Of Eladdair - $5.50
Another win last time out for Hymns Of Eladdair is reflective of the excellent form it has been in of late and it looks a good price to sneak under the radar here.

Selections:
7. Toropa - $3.20
3. All Play - $4.50
4. Sinful Living - $11.00

BEST BET - Toropa - $3.20
The return to action of Toropa is a significant one here, with connections hoping it has enough running in its legs to come back with a bang. Credentials are unquestioned here but it could be a touch undercooked.

THE DANGER - All Play - $4.50
Four wins on the spin have propelled All Play bang into the mix here, even if it has been out of action for 12 weeks. It will be amongst the front runners in this one and looks a good price to be in the hunt.

VALUE BET - Sinful Living - $11.00
Having romped home here at Ascot just a week ago, Sinful Living is an absolute flyer of a horse and this trip looks absolutely ideal. It looks way overpriced and should be gunning for another triumph here.
