Greg Hooper’s Ascot Preview

Posted on | Posted by Greg Hooper

RACE 1

MASSAGI resumes from a spell with the benefit of a solid trial win. She will camp right on the speed and give this a big shake.   AKHERON and PYM’S ROYALE have shown ability in their trials and hail from strong yards.  MONSOON was solid in his debut last week.

Numbers – 8 – 2 – 6 – 1

Suggested Bet – MASSAGI WIN

RACE 2

EVEN MORE ALERT has raced without luck in both career starts. He will look to park midfield and finish strongly. MISSILE LAUNCH box seated and faded on debut. He can improve off that run. IMPRESSIVE STAR was well beaten on debut at York. He has spelled since then and the blinkers go on for his return. THE DIARY has claims off his effort two starts back.

Numbers – 6 – 5 – 3 – 4

Suggested Bet – EVEN MORE ALERT AND MISSILE LAUNCH      

RACE 3

Very tricky maiden with plenty of form lines clashing. The blinkers go onto FREECELL and he has draw a gate in which he can settle much closer. He can run a big race at odds. VAGABOND BOY chased a strong speed at York and was found wanting late. He goes close with any improvement. Expecting HURRICANE JACK to race prominent to the speed and give a strong kick with the blinkers going on. SANTIAGO GIRL has looked quite sharp in her trials.

Numbers – 8 – 6 – 4 – 16

Suggested Bet  – FREECELL WIN

RACE 4

DUCHA ZACHISTKI back in class with Pike on looks hard to beat. SCOTTISH TRADER overcame some traffic problems when winning at York. She looks the danger. LONG OVER DUE returns from a freshen-up. With Autier on he is capable of giving a sight on the speed. SOMEDAY ONE DAY next best.

Numbers –  4 – 2 – 6 – 5

Suggested Bet – DUCHA ZACHISTKI AND SCOTTISH TRADER

RACE 5

SPEEDING COMET has been racing well up the Pinjarra straight. If he can replicate that form around a bend he’s the one to beat. LUKE’S GOLD is most talented horse in the race. The query for him in the 1000m. TWO SILVER TREES can run a race fresh. HALLDORA next best.

Suggested – 2 -3 – 6 – 7

Suggested Bet –  SPEEDING COMET AND LUKE’S GOLD

RACE 6

The blinkers go on GEIGER GEM and he drops significantly in class from his first three runs this campaign. He can camp right on the speed and give this a big shake. MEGA MINX is untried at the trip but he is another who has been racing in better company than this. GRENOUILLE never saw any daylight when resuming at Pinjarra. KIMBO’S GIRL can lead and give a sight.

Numbers – 1 – 6 – 2 – 5

Suggested Bet – GEIGER GEM WIN

RACE 7

BIG RED COSTA should be ready at his third run back from a spell. The blinkers go on and expecting him to be in a much more prominent position in running than his first two starts this campaign. FIRE DETONATOR impressed when resuming at Pinjarra. Pike goes on. CHECKERS is racing well. MOUQUET races handy and has claims.

Numbers- 1 – 4 – 2 – 7  

Suggested Bet – BIG RED COSTA AND FIRE DETONATOR

RACE 8

REEF KEEPER is the most promising horse in this race and he should be too strong. He was softened up mid race on Good Friday and left a sitting shot late. Suspect Chris Parnham will look to ride him just behind the speed in a stalking role which will give him the edge. ESPERANCA ran well last week. HOT BRESA will enjoy the rise in trip. SCANDIUM can lead and give a sight.

Numbers –  3 – 14 – 2 – 1

Suggested Bet – REEF KEEPER WIN

QUADDIE

5 – 2, 3, 6

6 – 1, 2, 5, 6, 7

7 – 1, 2, 4, 5, 7

8 – 3, 14
