Scott’s Wednesday Ascot Preview Posted on January 30, 2018 | Posted by Scott Embry Scott Embry’s Preview Race 1 SPIN ON COMMAND has been excellent at both runs this preparation and should get William Pike’s day off to a flyer. Could genuinely ride 90% of the card. PERCEPTIVE MISS hit the line hard albiet in a weak maiden. SMOKE ‘N’ MIRRORS can roll forwards and give cheek. SELF ASSURED next. Numbers 6 – 10 – 2 – 5 Suggested Bet –SPIN ON COMMAND WIN Race 2 SUNBOSS is an eye catching chestnut colt who is no doubt suited over further but if they turn the speed on he could be the blowout. HOW TO FLY is the logical favorite and will be holding the weight of a lot of Pike punters. COLD AS COLD did it tough down the wrong part of the Pinjarra straight. DEMTIMES gets a soft run. Numbers: 3 – 4 – 1 – 2 Suggested Bet – SUNBOSS EACHWAY Race 3 DRIFTSTAR could well be one of the Simon Miller two year olds we have all been waiting for. Looks a professional and a nice horse in the making. UNIVERSAL APPEAL showed blistering speed in both trials. TRADE PRIZE should hit the line. STARES ANDWHISPERS never settled on Saturday. Could improve. Numbers 3 – 10 – 5 – 9 Suggested Bet – DRIFTSTAR WIN Race 4 GET THE VIBE has contested exclusively tougher races than this throughout her entire career. On paper this looks the most winnable race she has ever seen. DEEP COVER can give them all something to catch. BELLA’S KEEPER will appreciate the speed being on. MISS SWINDLE was never a hope when caught deep last start. Numbers: 8 – 1 – 7 – 6 Suggested Bet – GET THE VIBE WIN Race 5 GO CRYING won a soft Albany maiden and then was thrown into the deep end in an open Saturday 3 year old race against some nice types. Can roll forwards and be hard to run down. STATE PROSECUTOR pulled himself into the ground last start and was game in defeat. ASCOT GOLD an improver out in trip. Al CAPITANO next. Numbers: 4 – 2 – 7 – 6 Suggested Bet – GO CRYING EACHWAY Race 6 REGAL MOON has never seen a field this weak in her life. If she really is a 1400m horse than should be winning on her ear. WANTED DESIRE has had no luck all preparation. Pays to forgive almost all her runs. IRISH MOSHE belted moderate opposition at her WA debut. HE’S DUNNA RUNNA should get it soft. Numbers: 1 – 4 – 6 – 2 Suggested Bet – REGAL MOON WIN Race 7 SUMMIT TRAIL kicked clear at the top of the straight last start and looked home for all money. Can do similar here. BROTHER’S KEEPER brought his strong midwest form to town last time out in a tougher race. PRYING TOM was never in the race after Scooner fell. Previous form solid for a race like this. ROGAN SCENT was an eye catching effort when resuming. Numbers: 5 – 1 – 3 – 6 Suggested Bet – SUMMIT TRAIL EACHWAY Race 8 ORANGE STRUDEL is a hard horse to catch but is going really well at the minute. Bungled the start and did exceptionally well to finish as close as she did last start. BOUNCE DOWN was far from disgraced in a stronger Saturday field fresh. MASQUERADE gave them windburn first-up. No doubt carrying the hopes of many an odds-on multi player. FLOWER OF SCOTLAND next. Numbers: 6 – 5 – 7 – 2 Suggested Bet – ORANGE STRUDEL EACHWAY Race 9 BURGER TIME is a big strong stayer resuming at a mile. His trial was very handy and could run a nice race fresh. KING OF CHAOS has never been beyond 1400 but won well at Bunbury. COME ON BOARD is a personal favourite who will pinch another race fairly soon. SKIP TRACER is one at odds who could bob up. Numbers: 3 – 5 – 2 – 8 Suggested Bet – BURGER TIME EACHWAY Quaddie (Races 6 – 9) 1,4,6 1,2,3,5,6 2,5,6,7 1,2,3,5,7 Bet Now
