Ascot - Race 1 - Tabtouch Westspeed Platinum - 1000m

Selections:
2. Jaz Session - $2.10
1. Sky Duke - $3.20
4. My Lovely Pet - $3.40

BEST BET - Jaz Session - $2.10
Form is everything at this level and Jaz Session is in supreme nick for connections ahead of this one. It romped to a win last time out and will be the one to catch in this field.

THE DANGER - Sky Duke - $3.20
This is a huge chance for Sky Duke to deliver too, having already picked up a win here at Ascot this season. While this is a much tougher assignment, this is a good horse, who could threaten here.

VALUE BET - My Lovely Pet - $3.40
When it comes to putting wins on the board though, My Lovely Pet has been delivering consistently of late and chasing a third win on the bounce here. This is in tougher company though at Ascot.

Ascot - Race 5 - Vale Bert Harrison Handicap - 1000m

Selections:
1. Bopping Blue - $2.50
3. Petula - $3.00
7. Brave Strike - $5.00

BEST BET - Bopping Blue - $2.50
The return of Bopping Blue is the eye-catching offering in this one. Having enjoyed such a good run of results last season, this is its first run out of 2025 and it will need to hit the ground running over this brisk trip.

THE DANGER - Petula - $3.00
A similar synopsis can be put together for Petula, a horse that has always looked the part and who has some good results on its card too. Conditions will suit and this could be a proper battle between the top two in the market.

VALUE BET - Brave Strike - $5.00
The horse on the periphery in the market is Brave Strike and it gets the chance to rekindle some form here. Both runs this season have been disappointing but this horse has the capability to challenge in this company.

Ascot - Race 8 - JC Roberts Stakes - 1800m

Selections:
2. Sail Session - $2.70
1. All Grunt - $3.20
9. Superfluous - $9.00

BEST BET - Sail Session - $2.70
With two wins in its last three starts, Sail Session should come out of the traps firing in this one and it looks well placed to do just that. Conditions look ideal and it will be the standard setter in the race.

THE DANGER - All Grunt - $3.20
In a fledgling six-race career, All Grunt has showed up very well every time. It hit the post hard last time out and should run on well over this 1800m distance.

VALUE BET - Superfluous - $9.00
William Pike gets the nod on Superfluous here and this horse looks to have the potential to tear up this field. It is inexperienced but it could have enough to at least challenge, at a good price.
