In the feature race last year’s winner Unowhatimeanharry can take first price in what promises to be an exciting renewal. With a great clash between old favourites and young up and coming horses, we should see a closely fought contest, but ultimately we believe Unowhatimeanharry will be too strong for the field. After a good reappearance at Aintree, Unowhatimeanharry was caught out by the brilliant and gutsy front running performance of Beer Goggles last time out, but promises to bounce back here, this is why we chose him for our Ascot racing tips.
With young exciting prospects such as Sam Spinner, Thomas Campbell and The Worlds End all lining up against him, this really should be a cracking race. However, the Harry Fry trained horse looks to have the beating of them on ratings, and Unowhatimeanharry looks to be the best horse to bet on in the feature race.
In the second of the graded race on this card, Air Horse One looks to have the ability to go close in what looks to be a very competitive handicap. Two starts ago he ran very well behind Elgin, who runs here again today and that race was over this course and distance. Since then, Air Horse One has ran another good race to come third in a valuable handicap, and looks weighted to get closer to Elgin this time around, this being a huge reason why we chose him for our horse racing tips Ascot.
With a 5lb swing at the weights there we have every reason to believe Air Horse One can reverse the form from the race here last month, and go very close to winning this good contest. We expect to see plenty of market support for Air Horse One ahead of this race so make sure you check out the Saturday horse racing betting odds.
The graduation chase on the card looks full of potentially nice chasers, who all appear to be just below top class. One who stands out as exactly that is O O Seven from the Nicky Henderson yard. He doesn’t look capable of landing a big prize, but something like this race is exactly in his reach, he is the type of horse that these races were made for.
With a decent field against him, things won’t be easy, but O O Seven looks to have a great chance here to pick up his first win of the season. Use our Ascot Long Walk Hurdle races tips to win tomorrow!
