Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 1: MACALLAN (12)
Jockey: Hewitson L - Trainer: Wright A
MACALLAN moved up like a winner in his last start over this C&D, but was caught in the shadow of the post. The son of Ideal World has finished second twice from four starts over this C&D. He does have a wide draw to overcome today, but he gets the services of Lyle Hewitson who will give him all the necessary assistance from the saddle.
Race 2: MAITLAND MAGIC (8)
Jockey: Marcus A - Trainer: Crawford B
MAITLAND MAGIC may not have enjoyed the yielding going last time. He ran two good races before that effort. The son of Silvano returns from a 14-week break, during which time he would have strengthened up. He gets the blinkers fitted for the first time and if the headgear has the desired effect, he should take a power of beating
Race 3: SILVER FOX DOG (10)
Jockey: Arries A - Trainer: Miller M D
SILVER FOX DOG took a big step up in distance when trying the 2400m last time. He was not disgraced and finished his race off well. It must be noted that Track Attack has come out and won again since. The drop in trip will suit him well and if suited to the polytrack, he should be the one to beat.
TOP BET FOR TODAY
Race 6: LINEAR (1)
Jockey: Moodley S - Trainer: Forbes L
LINEAR ran a very good race on KZN Breeders Race Day last time. She raced from just off the pace that day and stayed on well behind Silent Crusade. She has finished second in both her attempts over this c&d. She drops back to Handicap company this afternoon and from pole position, may be the one to beat.
VALUE BET FOR TODAY (EACH WAY)
Race 5: JACK'S BIRD (2)
Jockey: Moodley S - Trainer: Roberts M L
JACK'S BIRD is the value bet on this afternoon's card. She has been taking on stronger company in recent outings. The run that catches the eye is when finishing just under 4 lengths behind Missisippi Burning in the KZN Fillies Guineas in her penultimate effort. She takes a drop in class today and should strip a much fitter horse. If putting her best foot forward, she should run a big race
