Magic Tips Best Bets

 

Race 3: HIDDEN THOUGHT(2)
Jockey: R Fourie    - Trainer: G Kotzen 

HIDDEN THOUGHT proved ineffective on soft ground in a listed ten furlong feature last time but the consistent daughter of Lateral had promising prior form up to a mile. She should easily bounce back at this lesser level and is a major contender if handling this track.

 

Race 5: JO'S BOND(2)
Jockey: B Lerena  - Trainer:  J Snaith

The speedy JO'S BOND is slightly out at the weights but she had an encouraging recent performance over an extra furlong on this course at the highest level. The Snaith is undoubtedly at her best over this minimum distance and she should produce a major effort at this level on her peak showing.

 

Race 7: HIGH ALTAR(9)
Jockey: M Yeni   - Trainer: D Howells

HIGH ALTAR is coming to hand after returning from a ten week break and she stayed on for a solid 3rd despite suffering some interference over nine furlongs on the polytrack four weeks ago. She finished a short head adrift of the runner-up HATFIELD SQUARE whom she meets on identical weight terms today but her track experience sways things in her favour. Of course the poorly drawn daughter of King's Chapel has gone exactly one year without a victory which came over this trip at this venue.

 

 

TOP BET

 

Race 9: BELIEVE THE BEST(13)
Jockey: R Fourie  - Trainer:  G Kotzen

The half-sister to dual Grade 1 winner Eyes Wide Open, BELIEVE THE BEST had an exciting debut over six furlongs on the polytrack recently despite the daughter of Oratorio not striding out. She would have gained plenty from that first experience and is bred to love today's extra furlong.

 

VALUE BET (EACH WAY) FOR TODAY:

 

Race 1: CARLBURG(4)
Jockey: L Ferraris    - Trainer: M Roberts

CARLBURG had a creditable last display on this track despite racing wide and he can build on that career best performance. He has 1.55 lengths to find with the runner-up PERPETUAL FLAME who is drawn wider.
