Magic Tips Best Bets

Race 4: SILVA MAGIC (6)
Jockey: C Zackey - Trainer: G Puller

SILVA MAGIC followed up her maiden win with a creditable second-place finish over 1900m on the poly. She finished well that day, but should not be bothered by the drop down to nine furlongs. She jumps from a mid-field draw and Keagan de Melo, who has been on board for her last four starts, retains the ride.

 
Race 5: MERLIN FROM BERLIN (5)
Jockey: D Dillon - Trainer: N Kotzen

MERLIN FROM BERLIN goes for his hat-trick here. He tries the twelve furlongs for the first time, but kept going well to win his last start over 1950M and could enjoy this greater test of stamina. 

 

TOP BET FOR TODAY

Race 8: WHIZZ OF ODDS (2)
Jockey: W Kennedy - Trainer: G van Zyl

WHIZZ OF ODDS is a 3yr old filly taking on the boys, but she has won her first two starts over this distance and will be hoping to complete the trio. She jumps from draw two and she will ensure that the males know that they have a race on their hands. It is always encouraging when Warren Kennedy keeps faith in the ride.

 
Race 9: HOROSCOPE HARRY (4)
Jockey: W Kennedy - Trainer: D Bosch

HOROSCOPE HARRY won his last start over this c&d, following up on his win over the same distance at Hollywoodbets Scottsville. He looks to complete the hat-trick of wins and with Anton Marcus up, this is very much on the cards, jumping from his handy draw.

 

VALUE BET FOR TODAY (EACH WAY)

Race 3: SLEW CITY (12)
Jockey: K de Melo - Trainer: D Kannemeyer

SLEW CITY was running on well in his last start over a mile and was only denied victory by a head in his penultimate outing over this distance on the poly. The gelding should enjoy going back over that distance and could be the one that they all have to beat here. His wide draw should not be too much of an issue as he should be picking off the frontrunners in the closing stages.
