Our take
Playtech's 5-reel horse-racing slot with 92.96% RTP, medium-high volatility, 1,000× max win, and expanding wild multipliers.
Playtech's Ascot Sporting Legends capitalises on the 2019 Royal Ascot event, channelling British horse-racing prestige into slot mechanics. The 5×3 grid with 25 paylines is standard, and the medium-high volatility positions it between casual and thrill-seeking play.
The wild symbol is the centrepiece: it expands across reels to complete combinations, and when it lands, it multiplies associated wins. This mechanic amplifies individual spins without relying on cascades, offering a pacing rhythm distinct from Megaways. Three scatter symbols trigger the free games (up to 20), where the high-society theme reaches full expression—expanded wilds likely continue to function, driving the bonus's outsized potential.
Three progressive jackpots are available, adding a secondary upside layer. The 92.96% RTP is slightly below industry-standard, placing Ascot in the competitive-but-modest category. The 1,000× max win is mid-tier, achievable on a €5+ stake but not life-changing on micro-bets.
Pros
- Expanding and multiplying wilds create dynamic base-game wins

Cons
- 92.96% RTP is below-standard, gradually grinding down bankrolls
- Medium-high volatility demands discipline; base-game losses are common
- Progressive jackpots are distant and unlikely to hit for most players
