Lee-Steere Classic tip: Mai Aloha Mai Aloha will clash with a number of her rivals that she faced in the Placid Ark Stakes; however, her connections will be hoping for more luck this time. The Grant & Alana Williams-trained filly travelled sweetly for William Pike, but she was held up behind slowing runners for the first 200m of the home straight, which ultimately cost her any chance of winning. Stepping up to 1400m will suit this girl, and with even luck, Mai Aloha can turn the tables and record another win. Lee-Steere Classic Race 6 – #8 Mai Aloha (11) 3yo Filly | T: Grant & Alana Williams | J: William Pike (53kg) +300 with BlondeBet Jungle Dawn Classic tip: The Boss Lady After jumping slowly from the barriers and being forced to settle worse than midfield, The Boss Lady was never a winning chance in the Jungle Mist Classic. The leader and eventual winner held a six-length margin over the Michael Lane-trained mare turning for home, but to her credit, she made up a stack of ground in the final 200m to finish second. If Chris Parnham can get her to jump better from barrier four, The Boss Lady will settle closer to the speed and prove hard to hold out late. Jungle Dawn Classic Race 7 – #7 The Boss Lady (4) 4yo Mare | T: Michael Lane | J: Chris Parnham (55kg) +380 with Picklebet Best Bet at Ascot: Jokers Grin Jokers Grin is one of the rising stars in Western Australia, and he will be seeking his sixth straight win after recording a breathtaking victory over 1000m on November 16. The Bernie Miller-trained gelding was made to travel three-wide with no cover but still proved way too good for his rivals as he glided past them in the final 100m. If Patrick Carbery can find some cover and produce Jokers Grin at the 300m mark, he will win again. Best Bet Race 5 – #6 Jokers Grin (8) 4yo Gelding | T: Bernie Miller | J: Patrick Carbery (55.5kg) +100 with Neds Next Best at Ascot: Royal Toronado It is hard to go past Royal Toronado in the second event, as the Grant & Alana Williams-trained gelding drops back from 2100m to the same distance that he won at two starts back. After encountering some trouble early in the home straight, this son of Toronado came from the back of the field and flashed up the inside rail to go down by a nose on the line. William Pike will stick with this four-year-old gelding, and if he shows a similar finishing burst to his previous runs, Royal Toronado will bounce back.
