Ascot r5 Penny’s Afield ; Much better suited out to 1400m 2nd up and Chris Parnham is back in the saddle. Not that there was anything wrong with the first up run , was just too big a task from the wide gate . Likely settle’s midfield and comes down the outside for her run so as long as the pattern isn’t mad rail she looks hardest to beat.
Best Bet Ascot r7 Snowdome ; When I saw the nominations Tuesday arvo I was stoked to see the presence of boom horse Amelia’s Jewel , thinking we would get a price for Snowdome . Despite sitting deep no cover first up he powered past them late and was way too classy. While little separated them when markets opened and still doesn’t , they have flipped and Snowdome holds favouritism . Amelia trialed like a superstar before racing as a 2yo and was simply breathtaking in winning all 3 starts at listed / group level. The boom is warranted but I must say the trials this time in have been below what she produced last time. This could be for several reasons . She is being set for the Group 1 Northerly Stakes which is a WFA 1800m event run towards the end of November. If this is her grand final then she won’t be 100% wound up yet. She could be doing everything asked of her in the trial and be kidding punters . I’m sure If she sees daylight early enough in the straight she will be charging home but I think Snowdome will be traveling too strongly out in front to reel in , just a shame I’m not the only one thinking this and were not getting overs.
Best Value Ascot r9 Chili is Hot ; Type of horse that always gives 100% and when punting each way that’s a trait I love in horses. Should get every chance just behind them from the good gate and be fighting out the finish. $9.50 is great value each way.
