Winning Form Best Bets
Race 1: STAY THE COURSE (2)
Race 2: JOE HARMAN (6)
Race 6: INTUITIVE (8)
Race 8: THE SANDS (10)
Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 1: STAY THE COURSE (2)
Jockey: Kennedy W – Trainer: Smith G
STAY THE COURSE ran a good race when finishing second in his last start over this C&D. He set the pace, fought hard but found one too good in the form of Just The Wind. He is likely to adopt the same tactics from pole position and may be hard to peg back in the run down to the line.
Race 4: VALETORIO (2)
Jockey: Brewer K – Trainer: Smith G
VALETORIO has shown good signs of a form return in his last two starts. He raced wide around the turn last time, but the manner in which he finished off his race was eye-catching. He has won once and finished third once from as many starts over this C&D. 4kgs claiming apprentice Kaidan Brewer takes the ride and the pair should find themselves in the winner’s enclosure.
Top Bet For Today
Race 5: FRANCA (5)
Jockey: Cheyne G – Trainer: Greeff A
FRANCA is the best bet on the programme. She set the pace in the Aloe Handicap last time and fought hard to keep all challengers at bay. She has found a new lease on life since relocating to the Eastern Cape and should be hard to peg back.
Race 7: MACH FOUR (2)
Jockey: Fourie R – Trainer: Laing Tara
MACH FOUR finished 0.15 lengths behind STORM COMMANDER last time. He is 1kg better off at the weights today which is enough for the tables to be turned. He had no luck in the straight that day. It is encouraging that Richard Fourie retains the ride and he can notch up his third career victory.
Value Bet For Today
Race 3: SILVIA LOUISE (4)
Jockey: Mxothwa L – Trainer: Kotzen S
SILVIA LOUISE took on male company in her last start and was reported to be not striding out. It must be noted that the form of that race has been franked. She is back against her own sex today and with a bit of luck from her wide draw, she should be the one to beat
