Magic Tips Best Bets

Race 1: PUMEZA(1)

Jockey:   D Dillon  - Trainer: A E Sands

The speedy PUMEZA had shown smart potential last campaign but was immediately rested after a slightly below-par showing in early July. That formline worked out well during her 22 week absence though as the runner-up Ma Forte won twice and this daughter of Tiger Ridge would have strengthened. She is favourably drawn on her belated seasonal debut and should be a major contender.

Race 2: PHOTOCOPY(1)

Jockey: R Fourie  - Trainer: P Reeves

PHOTOCOPY is the obvious form choice and he will enjoy reverting to sprints today. The bay colt may have failed to stay the mile in a competitive line-up recently and quite interestingly his best runs came over sprint distances. He has the gate speed to overcome his unfavourable draw.

TOP BET

Race 4: TEASE(5)

Jockey:  G V.Niekerk- Trainer: J Snaith 

TEASE relished the rise in distance and the switch to this circuit as she showed smart improvement three weeks ago. The well-related daughter of Ideal World finished well for a close 2nd over the ten furlongs and she had the 3rd placed entrant LADY SUTTON three parts of a length further back. The pair will relish racing on this longer run-in and the former has more scope for progress.

Race 8: RIVER CAM(2)

Jockey:  A Domeyer  - Trainer: C Bass-Robinson

RIVER CAM was perfectly suited to racing with blinkers as he showed a swift turn of foot to easily win a similar event over this c & d early last month. The Trippi gelding received a five pound penalty for his exertions but he should relish racing on this longer run-in and he clearly has more to offer.

VALUE BET FOR TODAY

Race 5: LUNA CHILD(9)

Jockey:  R Fourie   - Trainer: G S Kotzen

The three-year old LUNA CHILD is reaching a competitive merit rating and she had a creditable last performance over a mile four weeks ago. The runner-up Bridal Party boosted the formline with an easy subsequent victory and this daughter of Ideal World is bred to enjoy this rise in distance. She could prove to be better than rated and is the stable choice.
