Best Bet : Mr4 Oceanographer: Import trying to force his way into the Cup Tuesday.  The tempo and track bias were against him in the Geelong cup but his effort to steam home said be on me next start.

Other Bets : Mr3 Sheidel: WA mare who is airborne, suited at the weight scale and one of the world's best J Morreira to ride.

Mr 7: Sacred Elixir; Derby Fav who to my eye is the best stayer in the race.  Respect to Swear but winning a gruelling 2500m race at start 5 looks a tough ask.

Quaddie (r6-9) field, 1 , 1 2 4 7 11 16 , 5 8 9 11. (obv flexi betting required)

Ascot Tips

Pr1 Golden Trigger: If it can get over from outside gate it will take some catching.

Pr4 Forever Diamonds : Looks the best bet of the program, one of several big chances for the wizard Willy Pike.

Pr8 Brackets : Pike again from barrier 1 in a pretty moderate bunch.
