Ascot Tips February 22
Peters Investments Handicap Tips (Race 4)
Ascot Value Bet - Race 4 No. 4 Miss Flirtacious
The daughter of Safeguard is a three-time winner this season with two of those victories coming at this venue.
The four-year-old got home by a narrow margin in a similar race to this held over 1200m in November and she was stepped up to 1400m for a Listed contest subsequently.
While the pick faded into eighth that day she returned to winning ways in a similar race to this held over course and distance two starts later.
The filly picked up her rivals in the closing stages having sat five lengths off the pace on that occasion and a change of tactics saw her race from the front over 1200m here last time.
The selection lost a plate and faded in the closing stages on that occasion and she tackles an easier contest here.
Jade McNaught has won on Luke Fernie’s sprinter in the past and the pair look value to register their third win together.
Pearce Racing Yearling Parade Tomorrow Handicap Tips (Race 5)
Ascot Best Bet - Race 5 No. 4 Axeman’s Jazz
The five-year-old demonstrated good form in 2023 including when placing fourth in the 2200m Listed Melvista Stakes at this track in March of that year.
The gelding’s sole subsequent effort that year saw him deliver a two-length victory when jumping at $1.90 for a 1400m event at Northam at the end of August.
The selection raced on a good 4 track when contesting a Class 5 handicap that day however he was off the track for over a year subsequently.
While the gelding failed to make an impact in two barrier trials at Lark Hill it was a different story on his return to race action at this venue last month.
Racing from off the pace the son of Dundeel got up in the closing stages to deliver a narrow margin victory in a 1400m contest held on a good 4 surface.
Clint Johnston-Porter’s mount shaped as if there was more to come stepping back up in distance that day and he looks capable of recording his second win of the season.
Morley Growers Market – Challenge Stakes (Listed) Tips (Race 7)
Ascot Feature Bet - Race 7 No. 6 Glasgow Lass
Trainer Mitchell Pateman knows what it takes to win this race have saddled Feels Playful, the winner here two years ago.
The handler’s representative this time around impressed in her barrier trials before debuting with a two-length triumph over 1100m at Ascot in January last year.
That course success, which came on a good 4 track marked the fillies sole start as a two-year-old and she resumed with a win on a soft 7 surface over 1200m at Belmont at the start of August.
The selection overcame being hampered at the start prior to scoring on that occasion and having been spelled following that effort she resumed with a Listed third at Bunbury earlier this month.
The daughter of Alabama Express was forced to race wide throughout and met trouble at a crucial stage when keeping on nicely to be beaten a length over 1200m that day.
The pick is expected to have improved for that first-up effort and she is taken to register a win stepping up in distance.

Ascot Next Best Bet - Race 9 No. 2 Watch Me Rock
The Grant & Alana Williams stable boast a near 21% strike-rate (248/1194) at this venue and their representative here has shown a liking for this venue in the past.
The pick has won three of his four starts at this venue including when ending his last prep with a course double.
The first of those victories saw the four-year-old come home half-a-length clear of his rivals when contesting a 1400m Benchmark 66+ handicap in October.
The gelding duly completed a double when following up stepped up to 1600m for a Benchmark 72+ event here the following month.
While both of those efforts came on a good 4 surface the son of Awesome Rock is equally at home on wet tracks.
The selection boasts a good barrier here and having resumed with a fourth in a barrier trial at Belmont the tactically versatile gelding can deliver a first up victory dropping in distance.
