Race 7: SISTERS OF MERCY(8)

Magic Tips Best Bets

Race 2: ESSTOORA(5)

Jockey: J V.D.Merwe - Trainer: S Tarry 

ESSTOORA drifted alarmingly in the betting market but still produced a decent debut in a strong line up over this c & d a week ago and she should make natural progress for this in-form combination.

Race 3: WHORLY WHORLY(2)

Jockey: C Murray - Trainer: C Binda

The smart three-year old WHORLY WHORLY has trained on this campaign and he produced an eye-catching recent feature display over this trip despite seemingly hitting a flat spot halfway through the contest. His wily conditioner has immediately resorted to blinkers which should be crucial and the son of Great Britain clearly appears to have much more to offer. He will relish the likely blistering pace and should be picking off his rivals in the closing stages.

TOP BET

Race 5: ZOUAVES(7)

Jockey: M V.Rensburg  - Trainer: G Woodruff 

ZOUAVES is way better than his excusable recent display over a mile and the versatile inmate from the Woodruff yard should quickly bounce back today. His smart display behind the promising Naafer three starts ago stands out in his formline.

Race 7: AWFAA(9)

Jockey: R Simons   - Trainer: M De Kock

The three-year old AWFAA was a super-impressive maiden winner over this trip in her second outing and the daughter of Silvano appears a highly promising sort in the making. The early signs are that she is way ahead of the handicapper on current assessment and today's steep rise in class will be a great pointer.

VALUE BET (EACH WAY) FOR TODAY:

Race 8: SILVER DUCHESS(7)

Jockey: C Murray   - Trainer:  T Lowe 

SILVER DUCHESS had an encouraging comeback sprint in mixed company and the bay mare will relish this rise to the mile. She could represent decent each/way value in this wide open final event.
