Race 7: CELTIC SEA (1)
Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 3: STARBOARD (11)
Jockey: G van Niekerk - Trainer: W A Nel
STARBOARD has produced two promising efforts thus far. She showed pace in her last start and fought hard all the way to the line. The daughter of Twice Over will love the step up to the mile this afternoon. She has a good draw and with Grant van Niekerk in the saddle, she should be the one to beat.
Race 4: OUR PRIZED JEWEL (3)
Jockey: Marcus A - Trainer: Crawford B
OUR PRIZED JEWEL won a good race in her last start over a mile. The daughter of Duke Of Marmalade is unbeaten from three starts on this course. The drop back in distance should not pose a concern and she should take a power of beating.
TOP BET FOR TODAY
Race 7: CELTIC SEA (1)
Jockey: Lerena G - Trainer: Tarry S
CELTIC SEA is the best bet on the day. She ran on powerfully to win the Southern Cross Stakes last time. She has won five times and finished second twice from as many starts over this distance. The daughter of Captain Al won this race last year and should retain her title.
Race 8: TICKET TO RIDE (3)
Jockey: Domeyer A - Trainer: Ennion G
TICKET TO RIDE ran a good race when taking on much stronger in his last start over this C&D. The manner in which he finished off his race that day was encouraging. The son of Pathfork drops back in class this afternoon and with Aldo Domeyer back in the irons, he may be the one to beat.
VALUE BET FOR TODAY
Race 5: BLACK KNAP (4)
Jockey: Ferraris L - Trainer: Marshall V
BLACK KNAP'S last two starts have been fair. He has won once and finished third once from three starts over this C&D. He jumps from a good barrier position this afternoon and on best form shown, he can get back to winning ways
