Ascot Race 4 - Solo (Bm66+)
WESTERN LADY (5) couldn't have been more impressive last start when sitting handy and putting her rivals to the sword over 2200m last week. She's on the quick turnaround again today but she's raced well on the 7-day back-up previously. This shapes similarly and she can go on with the job. FAT ROY SLIM (1) will appreciate this much easier company today after tackling Listed races for the last three starts. Back to a more suitable level now and Pike hops back in the saddle. Wouldn't surprise to see him bounce back to winning ways. AUDIO BOY (3) stuck on well behind WESTERN LADY last time out and he carries less weight today. Nottle's claim helps and he rarely runs a bad race. DEADLY AND FAST (2) was solid late at Albany last Sunday and the rise to 2400m doesn't look an issue. Can bring his recent form to town. ROYAL SPLENDOUR (7) is better than he showed last time out and can bounce back to form.

Most recently 8th of 12 at Pinjarra in the LR Pinjarra Cup on March 22 over 2300m, 5 len behind Royal Toronado with 54kg at $10. The race before that 8th of 13 at Bunbury in the LR Bunbury Cup on March 7 over 2000m, 5.5 len behind Arcadia Park with 55kg at $11. Right back in grade here and looks the main danger with Pike on board.

Racing well recently. Most recently 4th of 11 at Albany Albany Cup on April 5 over 2100m, on a slow track; 3 len behind True Player with 54.5kg at $12. The run before that came from midfield and won by a neck at Albany Rtg 68+ March 19 over 2100m on a rain affected track defeating Mister Popcorn carrying 60kg at $9. Racing well in the country and deserves his shot here on recent figures.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 11 at this track Grad Hcp 60+ on April 4 over 2200m, 4.5 len behind Western Lady with 57.5kg at $4.40. Before that tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 13 at this track Rtg 65+ on March 21 over 2200m, 1.0 len behind Lillian carrying 55kg at $5. Rarely turns in a poor one and should get every possible yet again.

Recent form sound. Last start favourite; scored a big 3.5 len win at this track Grad Hcp 60+ April 4 over 2200m defeating Rock In Wonder carrying 56kg at $1.90. The start before that 2nd of 12 at this track Grad Hcp 60+ on March 14 over 1800m, 1.1 len behind The Jester's Son with 55kg at $1.45. Bolted in last start and can repeat the dose if she handles the quick turnaround.
