TOP BET FOR TODAY

Race 2: LAPTOP WIZARD(1)

Jockey: N Klink - Trainer: L Human 

The former Highveld resident LAPTOP WIZARD had solid credentials back home and has joined up with a top local yard. UTOPIAN showed smart improvement when going close over this c & d last month and he had exposed maidens ROYAL DELIGHT and KISSMEBACKFOOT behind him that day

Race 5: TOWN FLYER(4)

Jockey: N Patel - Trainer: J Rugg

TOWN FLYER crushed his rivals on unfavourable weight terms at pinnacle level over this c & d last month and could still be ahead of the handicapper despite the resultant five pound penalty.

Race 9: BONFILIA(4)

Jockey: J Greyling   - Trainer: D Cason 

BONFILIA could be a decent prospect in this province & her continued improvement has been noticeable. She caught the eye with a strong finish for 3rd in mixed company over seven furlongs on her handicap debut and it could pay to follow the runner-up Royal Stag's progress in the previous contest. This bay daughter of Curved Ball usually ends her races well and she has already proven herself over the mile.

Race 10: TOM COLLINS(5)

Jockey: D De Gouveia  - Trainer: S Von Willingh

TOM COLLINS quickly showed his worth in this province when he ran on strongly for a close 3rd in a competitive c & d handicap where he had many of today's rivals behind him recently. He wasn't far behind Zip Line (runs in race 6) that day. The former Highveld resident FLYING MYTH improved on his local debut behind the subsequently disappointing DIRECTOR'S ROCK but the son of Trippi was returning from a lengthy 30 week absence and he will strip fitter.

VALUE BET

Race 4: DURBAN BOURBON(7)

Jockey: M Yeni   - Trainer: C Lensley

DURBAN BOURBON had legitimate excuses for her below-par last run and her top jockey will be looking to make amends after an ordinary ride last time out. She is a capable former Highveld resident
