Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 1: WINTER CHILL(9)
Jockey: A Mgudlwa - Trainer: G Puller
The Garth Puller yard would appear to have a strong hand in the opening event this afternoon, with the pick going to WINTER CHILL who finished a creditable second on debut over the c&d, despite losing 1L at the start and racing green. He attracted betting support that day so he must have been showing good work at home.
Race 4: ZERNIA(8)
Jockey: W Kennedy - Trainer: G Van Zyl
ZERNIA will jump from barrier one and gets the services of red-hot Warren Kennedy. She raced green on debut over slightly shorter, but was running on nicely in the closing stages, which would suggest that she will appreciate the extra ground on offer here. With natural improvement expected, she looks the one to be with here.
Race 5: BON BON(6)
Jockey: J Gates - Trainer: G Kotzen
BON BON gets 1.5kgs removed from her back courtesy of her claiming apprentice. She jumps from a handy draw and seems to have struck up a good partnership with today's rider. Half of her six wins to date have been over this distance.
TOP BET FOR TODAY
Race 8: LIQUID IRISH(3)
Jockey: S Randolph - Trainer: W Whitehead
LIQUID IRISH has solid form to her name and is yet to finish further back than second, in her five runs to date. Even from a poor draw, she looks too strong for this field.
VALUE BET FOR TODAY
Race 3: AL JAZEERA(5)
Jockey: W Kennedy - Trainer: G Van Zyl
AL JAZEERA has cracked pole position and has solid formlines to his name. The blinkers get removed for today's run, but this may be because he overraced in his last start.
