Magic Tips Best Bets

TOP BET

Race 2: EXQUISITE TOUCH(1)
Jockey: A Delpech  - Trainer: S Tarry 

The classy EXQUISITE TOUCH is plagued with issues and returns from another long break but she is best weighted in this pinnacle stakes affair and can complete the four-timer.

Race 3: FLYING FEATHER(1)
Jockey: G Lerena- Trainer: F De Beer

FLYING FEATHER may have still been recovering from her KZN escapade when she performed below-par last time out but the daughter of Rebel King should get her career back on track here. She had promising prior form and that recent formline was boosted when the runner-up Western Shamrock shed her maiden tag on Tuesday. Top jockey Gavin Lerena takes the ride.

Race 6: PRETTY BALLERINA(7)
Jockey: F Herholdt - Trainer: O Ferraris 

PRETTY BALLERINA has rejuvenated her career under this veteran jockey and the pair finished well for 3rd in a strong line-up over this trip at the Vaal recently. She was raised two pounds for her exertions but drops heavily in class on her peak effort and the lightly raced bay could still prove to be better than rated.

Race 8: SLEEPINSEATTLE(4)
Jockey: G Lerena  - Trainer: E Verdonese

The veteran campaign SLEEPINSEATTLE produced an eye-catching display over a mile on this course seven days ago despite racing wide and he is the natural selection over his preferred distance today. The bay gelding is well drawn and top rider Gavin Lerena takes the ride. 

VALUE BET

Race 7: IRISH PRIDE(6)
Jockey: Weicho Marwing    - Trainer: Janse van Vuuren

However, the big improver could be IRISH PRIDE who continues to tumble in the ratings and is weighted to reduce the 4.05 lengths deficit with the former. This Ideal World gelding certainly wasn't disgraced in that event after he raced wide and he should be a totally different proposition from gate 2. He will benefit from racing near the pace.
