Ascot Racing Carnivals | Ascot Races<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Race tipping at Ascot really gets heated during the Perth Spring – Summer Racing Carnival now known as The Pinnacles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spring and summer racing in WA attracts the most interest and key races for punters tips at Ascot especially on the Group 1 race days and Perth Cup Day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Pinnacles is the only single-track racing carnival in the world featuring a Group 1 thoroughbred event worth A$1.5 million or more on three straight Saturdays. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ascot tips on the five consecutive Saturday Perth racing meetings held from mid-November until mid-December attract plenty of interest with over A$10.5 million in prize money offered across the festival for the winning horses and their connections. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Expert Ascot horse racing tips<\/strong> centre around the leading locally-trained stars with Perth horses dominating the markets and results. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The summer racing events held at Ascot are led by the track\u2019s most celebrated thoroughbred race \u2013 the Group 2 Perth Cup (2400m) \u2013 despite it not currently holding Group 1 status.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The other Ascot races worth getting our expert Perth race tips for over the summer are the trio of elite level features \u2013 the Group 1 Winterbottom Stakes<\/a> <\/strong>(1200m), Group 1 Railway Stakes<\/a> <\/strong>(1600m), and Group 1 Northerly Stakes<\/a> <\/strong>(1800m) held between November and December.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The spring \u2013 summer Ascot tipping action also features betting on The Gold Rush in mid-December, an A$1.5 million weight-for-age event first run in 2022. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ascot race tips over the summer season are dominated by the state\u2019s best horses and any interstate raiders making the trip over off a spring lead-up in either Sydney or Melbourne. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Outside of the summer, Ascot racing is headlined by the A$5 million The Quokka (1200m) which is a slot-race held for the first time in April of 2023. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Quokka follows on from Sydney\u2019s A$20 million The Everest slot race<\/a><\/strong> run in the spring and is currently Australia\u2019s fifth richest horse race. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ascot racing over the autumn for The Quokka Carnival also features the Group 2 Karrakatta Plate for two-year-old horses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the introduction of The Quokka buy-in race, the WA Autumn Racing Carnival <\/strong>is quickly building in popularity and prestige opening up lots of top Ascot betting opportunities for punters. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other Ascot autumn racing tips centre around events including the Group 2 WATC Derby (2400m) for three-year-old stayers, the fillies facing off in the Group 3 WA Oaks (2400m), and the Group 3 WA Sires\u2019 Produce Stakes (1400m). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
