Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 1: WORLD’S BEST (12)
Jockey: R Simons – Trainer: M de Kock
WORLD’S BEST has produced two decent efforts to date. He raced from a prominent position over 1600m last time, but found one too good in the form of DJ Junior. He will enjoy the return to this C&D and from his good draw of three, he should be the one to beat.
Top Bet For Today
Race 2: TSAR BOMBA (4)
Jockey: K de Melo – Trainer: J A Janse van Vuuren
TSAR BOMBA is the best bet on the card. He followed up his debut victory with a good third-place finish over 1200m on the Turffontein Inside course. It must be noted that Moonshiningthrough has come out and won again since. The son of Gimmethegreenlight will love the rise to 1450m and from his good draw of two, he should take a power of beating.
Race 7: IPHIKO (1)
Jockey: M Yeni – Trainer: M de Kock
IPHIKO was not disgraced when finishing fifth in the Listed Gardenia Stakes last time. She was an easy winner of her four starts prior to that outing. She shows good speed in her races and in this line-up, she may be hard to peg back.
Race 8: ROSE FOR TRIPPI (1)
Jockey: D De Gouveia – Trainer: M/A Azzie
ROSE FOR TRIPPI ran a good race when second in her last start over this C&D. She should have won that day as she shifted away from the crop in the final 100m. The daughter of Trippi will strip a much fitter horse today and if keeping on a straight line, she should take a power of beating.
Value Bet For Today
Race 9: FUNKY MUSIC (5)
Jockey: R Munger – Trainer: A Fortune
FUNKY MUSIC ran a good race when third in his last start over this distance on the Turffontein Inside course. He has dropped to a competitive rating and with a bit of luck from his wide draw of ten, he may be the one to beat. It must be noted that he is carded to race on 10 November 2022 and his progress in that race will need to be monitored
