Ascot Selections & Staking Plan: Saturday 24th April
April 24, 2021
By Rylie Morgan
Lockdown 3.0 out West, thank god we are still racing. Selections for a very competitive 9 race card are below. Weather is fine, rail is true, and it will pay to be up on-speed early in the day as per every meeting when the rail is in the true position.
Race 1 – 11:48AM BLUESTONE MAIDEN (1500 METRES)
1. Astarba – 4. Crossed Swords – 6. Darcele – 2. Platinum Label
Race 2 – 12:23PM TABTOUCH WESTSPEED PLATINUM HANDICAP (1800 METRES)
3. Friar’s Fantasia – 4. Blackwater Bay – 2. Proceeds Of Crime – 5. Classic Rogue
Race 3 – 12:59PM RSLWA TROPHY (1000 METRES)

Race 4 – 1:39PM SHEILA GWYNNE CLASSIC (1400 METRES)
3. Tycoon Storm – 2. Watch Me Dance – 1. Cryptic Love – 6. Worth A Risk
Tycoon Storm
Just gets into this so well in at set weights and penalties. Gets in for beating Watch Me Dance last start 1.5kgs better and maps for an even more favourable run again. Really difficult to see how the filly turns the tables on this horse I think is going places. Very keen but too skinny at the current quote, max bet at anything $2.10+ late.
5 Units WIN if $2.10+ late prior to jump
Race 5 – 2:18PM MORLEY GROWERS MARKET HANDICAP (1400 METRES)
2. Kaptain Kaos – 9. Stellar Vista – 8. She’s God To You – 1. Kallaroo
Kaptain Kaos
Really like this horse. He is just so durable, wins from the breeze, wins with a smother and has won from almost last last start. Last start was a particularly impressive win given that it really was done against the pattern of the day. Doesn’t have to do it as tough here and Chris Parnham should be able to park him wherever he likes. Shapes as the hardest horse to beat of the day and should just be chalking up another win here.
4 Units WIN
Race 6 – 3:00PM VALE RUSSELL WOODS HANDICAP (1000 METRES)
4. Comes A Time – 9. Shock Result – 7. Panzdown – 2. King’s Authority

Race 7 – 3:37PM AMELIA PARK HANDICAP (1400 METRES)
2. Position Of Power – 3. War God – 10. Cockyjoy – 1. Not To Be Mist
Position Of Power
Huge last start when tramping deep and was incredibly brave to still run 3rd. Think if KB can find him a smother midfield from another awkward draw, this looks a very winnable assignment and a. nice price to find out.
1.25 Units WIN
War God
Don’t mind the set-up here for War God. Is finally down enough in his rating to get into this really well-weighted after the claim for Laqdar and maps to more than likely find the top unopposed. Fit, backs up off 7 days and given the lack of intent last start I think this is the race they have pinpointed for him to try and pinch.
0.75 Units WIN
Race 8 – 4:17PM DIGGERS CUP (1800 METRES)
7. Mackenzie Brooke – 2. Trap For Fools – 8. Marocchino – 6. That’s Funny Az
Mackenzie Brooke
Terrific 1st up run from Mackenzie Brooke who I think can really improve 2nd up here at the 1800m. Joey is in very good form and we didn’t see the best of her last prep when she copped some absolute shockers. The tempo will be very genuine with That’s Funny Az, Trap For Fools and Cockney Crew, she stays and has a turn of foot that I genuinely believe can be playing a role.
0.5 Units EACH WAY
Race 9 – 4:55PM CROWN PERTH HANDICAP (1600 METRES)
4. Tinsnip – 13. Trump This – 7. No Apology – 3. Gunnago
Tinsnip
Pike in the last, let’s rip. Tinsnip looks the perfect pick-up ride for Pike, maps to land in the box-seat off the 7 day back up and is a horse that prefers to be ridden hands and heels, the wizard’s forte. Gets weight back in her favour after carrying the grandstand last week and just looks very, very hard to beat in the get out.
3 Units WIN
Trump This
Just want to have something incredibly small on this runner, who has been running last 200m sectionals that need to be seen to be believed of late. If she isn’t 7 lengths off them and they bunch on the turn, she can be running past these, no shadow of a doubt. Whether she is within striking distance however, is a massive if.
0.3 Units WIN
Staking Plan
Race 4 Tycoon Storm 5 Units WIN if $2.10+ late
Race 5 Kaptain Kaos 4 Units WIN
Race 7 Position Of Power 1.25 Units WIN/War God 0.75 Units WIN
Race 8 Mackenzie Brooke 0.5 Units EACH WAY
Race 9 Tinsnip 3 Units WIN/Trump This 0.3 Units EACH WAY
10.3 Units staked, potential for 15.3 if Tycoon Storm gets out to a backable price outside the red.
