Ascot plays host to a whopping day of Saturday racing.

Big name horses and trainers are flocking from far and wide to Ascot this weekend, with the field for the Quokka catching the eye with punters and online bookmakers alike. It is a race that is part of a busy day of action at Ascot though and there are heaps of multi-bet opportunities out there for punters. 

Race 7: Bustling

By the time race 7 comes along, every punter should have a good awareness of how things are set to pan out at Ascot and Bustling looks to be one of the picks of the day in race 7. 
 
Booking Blake Shinn on board is a real signal of intent and he will be looking to navigate this bright young star to victory in the Karrakatta Plate.  
 
The likes of Golden Kahleen and Siren Assault both make claims here, but Bustling is a classy horse, who should relish the trip and who is very much in the winning habit, making it the justified short odds favourite with many betting sites

Race 8: Amelia’s Jewel

The Quokka is the headline act here at Ascot and whilst plenty of fantastic horses are in the mix, the pick of the bunch remains Amelia’s Jewel. 
 
With 9 wins from 14 career starts, Amelia’s Jewel has long been touted as the next big thing in Western Australian racing and a win here would cement that. 
 
Recent form hasn’t been sparkling but Amelia’s Jewel is a classy operator, who should have the legs to blow away the field here at Ascot and she’s the one to beat for most punters and Aussie bookmakers

Race 9: Laced Up Heels

The penultimate race of the day at Ascot could turn out to be one of the best, with some fantastic horses lining up for the Drummond Golf Joey. 
 
Chasing the A$200,000 in the prize pot is Laced Up Heels, a horse that has certainly looked the part for Luke Fernie in recent times. 
 
It won’t be plain sailing, with Western Empire and Gemma’s Son sure to be in the mix but Laced Up Heels could have enough about it to get over the line when it matters.
