Ascot Selections & Staking Plan: Saturday 20th March
March 19, 2021
By Rylie Morgan
A really open, tricky, trappy looking 9 race card headlined by a double 2YO feature at Ascot tomorrow. It’s an absolute scorcher, with temperatures expected to hit close to 40 degrees and am never usually one to completely swerve a Saturday meeting, but, this one has trap written all over it. Open, deep fields and accurate markets reflect why this is the first Saturday in a lengthy period of time I am very happy to not force anything, shoulder arms and send it through to the keeper. No units staked here today, but selections are as follows..
