Race 2: BURNING WINGS (1)
Race 3: PLEDGE OF HONOUR (2)
Race 5: PRETTY JOLLY (11)
Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 1: EYE CATCHING (10)
Jockey: Jacobs J - Trainer: Marshall V
EYE CATCHING made the natural improvement when finishing 3rd over this distance at Hollywoodbets Scottsville last time. She raced from just off the pace and stayed on well at the business end. The daughter of Flower Alley tries the polytrack for the first time and if suited to the surface, should be the one to beat.
TOP BET FOR TODAY
Race 2: BURNING WINGS (1)
Jockey: Marcus A - Trainer: Kotzen G
BURNING WINGS found some betting support when finishing 2nd on debut over the minimum trip on this course. He was slow into stride that day, but the manner in which he stayed on at the finish was encouraging. He will enjoy the extra furlong on offer and should improve to win this.
Race 3: PLEDGE OF HONOUR (2)
Jockey: Jacobs J - Trainer: Miller M
PLEDGE OF HONOUR took on winners when making a fair debut over the minimum trip on the turf. He showed pace that day, but lacked extra in the closing stages. The son of Seventh Rock drops to Maiden company this afternoon and he will get the services of a 2.5kg claiming apprentice which will help his cause. From his good draw of two, he may be the one to side with here.
Race 4: HUPERNIKAO (7)
Jockey: Hewitson L - Trainer: Goosen L
HUPERNIKAO was a tad disappointing over six furlongs in her last start and quickly drops back to the minimum trip. Her penultimate run catches the eye when she showed good speed before finishing 2nd at Hollywoodbets Scottsville. She gets the services of Lyle Hewitson for the first time and may be able to coax that little bit extra out of her where it matters most.
VALUE BET FOR TODAY (EACH WAY)
Race 6: LETABA (10)
Jockey: Dillon D - Trainer: Humby S
LETABA is the value bet on today's card. He showed signs of needing his last start over this distance at Hollywoodbets Scottsville. He is better suited to the polytrack and has a record of one win and two third place finishes from as many starts. He should strip much fitter this afternoon and on best form shown, should be the one to beat.
