Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 1: SMITH AND WESSON (7)
Jockey: S Khumalo – Trainer: J Snaith
SMITH AND WESSON showed good speed and stayed on to finish second in his last start over this distance at Fairview. It must be noted that the horse that finished third that day has come out and won since. S’manga Khumalo takes the ride and if not too green around the turn, he can shed his maiden tag.
Top Bet For Today
Race 2: STEINBECK (1)
Jockey: S Khumalo – Trainer: J Snaith
STEINBECK has finished second in his last three starts. He raced from a handy position last time, but found one too good in the form of Gentleman Joe. It must be noted that the horse that finished third that day has come out and won since. The son of Silvano makes his course debut and may find himself in the winner’s enclosure.
Race 3: ELEODORO (3)
Jockey: R Fourie – Trainer: L Woodruff
ELEODORO is one of the better bets on today’s card. She moved up like a winner over 1800m last time, but was outrun late by Everglades. The mile should suit the daughter of Jackson well. She gets the services of Richard Fourie and from pole position, she should take a power of beating.
Race 7: ARCTIC DRIFT (1)
Jockey: A Domeyer – Trainer: C Bass-Robinson
ARCTIC DRIFT’S last two starts have been decent. He returns from a short 10-week break, which may have done him the world of good. He has won once and finished second once from three starts over this distance. If not in need of the run, he will be mowing down the frontrunners.
Value Bet For Today
Race 6: BRIANNA (3)
Jockey: C Zackey – Trainer: A Marcus
BRIANNA finished 2.85 lengths behind CASA INVERNO last time. She is 3kgs better off at the weights today and that should be enough for the tables to be turned. She is having her second run after a rest and should strip much fitter. She shows good speed in her races and may be hard to peg back
