Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 1: SIMPLE SIMPLE (3)
Jockey: JP V.d Merwe – Trainer: Mike De Kock
SIMPLE SIMPLE was ultra-impressive when winning her last start over this C&D. The manner in which she quickened up and drew clear of the opposition was eye-catching. It must be noted that the horse that finished second that day has come out and won since. The daughter of Querari looks to have ability and can follow up.
Race 2: COOL WINTER (2)
Jockey: Kennedy W – Trainer: Peter P
COOL WINTER took on older rivals in his last start over this C&D. It was an encouraging run as he carried top weight. He is back against his own age group and from a prominent position, may be hard to peg back in the run down to the line.

Race 3: PINCH HIT (9)
Jockey: C Zackey – Trainer: F Bronkhorst
PINCH HIT caught the eye on debut over this distance on the Classic course. The manner in which he stayed on at the finish was encouraging. The son of William Longsword would have gained from the experience and with the natural improvement that is expected, he should take a power of beating.
Race 6: MANZ KNIGHT (6)
Jockey: Khumalo S – Trainer: Azzie M
MANZ KNIGHT produced a promising debut effort over 1700m on this course. He lost a length at the start, understandably raced green but stayed on nicely at the finish. The son of Gimmethegreenlight would have gained from the experience and will love the extra distance on offer. S’manga Khumalo retains the ride and if jumping on terms, he should win in this field.

Race 7: WONDERING STAR (11)
Jockey: S Khumalo – Trainer: Gray St John D
WONDERING STAR has not finished too far off the winner in recent outings. The manner in which he stayed on over 1600m last time suggests that he will be at home over 2000m. His last victory came under S’manga Khumalo and from a handy draw of five, he may be the one to side with
