    The authors present some asymptotic formulas for the Wallis sequence. Also some formulas as continued fractions are proven. The asymptotic formulas are obtained starting form the classical asymptotic series of the gamma function and of the ratio of gamma function. These formulas are truncated to obtain new accurate estimates for the Wallis ratio. The inequalities are stated using the Brouncker's continued fraction inequalities.
