Race 9: SKIMINAC (4)
Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 1: BLUE EYES (4)
Jockey: Khumalo S - Trainer: Matchett P
BLUE EYES has produced three fair efforts to date. The son of Master Of My Fate stayed on well over the minimum trip on the Vaal Classic course last time. He should enjoy the extra furlong on offer today and from barrier position three, he should be the one to beat.
Race 5: SUNSHINE SILK (4)
Jockey: Khumalo S - Trainer: Nieuwenhuizen
SUNSHINE SILK ran a decent race when finishing fifth in the Gold Cup last time. She lost a length at the start that day and stayed on well at the finish. She has won twice and finished second twice from five starts on this course. The 6yo mare makes her stable debut and if settled into her new surroundings, she can get back to winning ways.
TOP BET FOR TODAY
Race 6: CAPTAIN MORISCO (3)
Jockey: Khumalo S - Trainer: Fortune A
CAPTAIN MORISCO ran a cracker when finishing second over this C&D last time. He showed good pace that day and fought hard all the way to the line. The son of Captain Of All makes his handicap debut this afternoon, but he is lightly raced and looks to be above average. S'manga Khumalo knows him well and the pair should take a power of beating.
Race 7: WYLIE WENCH (3)
Jockey: Habib Devin - Trainer: Azzie M
WYLIE WENCH is much better than her effort in the Grade 1 Empress Club Stakes last time. The jockey felt something amiss with the daughter of Wylie Hall that day. She was super impressive when winning her three starts prior to that outing, two of which were on this course. She returns from a 15-week break today, which may have done her the world of good. If fit and well, she should take a power of beating.
VALUE BET
Race 4: ROOIPOORT (3)
Jockey: Khumalo S - Trainer: De Beer F
ROOIPOORT was not disgraced when taking on winners in his last start over nine furlongs on the Vaal Classic course. The manner in which he stayed on at the finish that day was encouraging. The son of Byword will enjoy the extra furlong on offer today and with S'manga Khumalo in the saddle, he should be the one to beat.
