Ascot Wokingham Tip

The Ascot Wokingham tip is Knot in Wood. This race is reputed to be the hardest of all at a royal Ascot to predict, but Knot in Wood has already shortened significantly in the market this week and with positive reports from connections, he looks like he could be the one. The Wokingham always has a large field and backing one horse in a handicap is often regarded as foolish, but the attraction to bet outweighs prudence, because everybody also knows thatyou get better ods in races like this. A good tipster will always go through the card and delete those without a chance at all, and there will be more than several in this race that fit that bill. It will leave you with a narrowed down field and then it becomes like any other handicap for selecting your horse.

Royal Ascot 2008 Races Betting Odds

Knot in Wood is the one for us, he was 7th out of twenty five runners at the Newmarket Guineas meeting in May, where he ran a great race, but had too much to do from a poor draw.. Connections knew then that the Wokingham would be his early season target. He races off the same mark as he did in last years Stewards Cup, where once again a poor draw prevented the anticipated performance.

If you cast your mind back to the Wokingham last year, you will remember that he was a pre-race steamer and went off at an unlikely 7/1. However he played up in the stalls that day and he disappointed. He has almost twice those odds this year so punters are advised to lump on him.Odds currently are 10/1 Intrepid jack, 12/1 Knot in Wood, 14/1 Kings Apostle, 14/1 Tombi, 16/1 Lipocco, 16/1 Zidane, 18/1 Bar.
