Race 5: MAHARANEE (1)
Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 3: DAWN MISSION (2)
Jockey: De Melo K – Trainer: Dawson C
DAWN MISSION has finished second in his last three starts under Keagan de Melo. He moved up like a winner last time, but was outrun late by Blonde Act. He is back on the Standside course this afternoon and should find himself in the winner’s enclosure.
Race 4: LEOPOLD (3)
Jockey: De Melo K – Trainer: Janse van Vuuren
LEOPOLD finished 0.2 lengths behind WHAFEEF last time. He is 1kg better off at the weights today and that should be enough for the tables to be turned. He finished 0.6 lengths behind INDLAMU in his penultimate run. He is 3kgs better off at the weights and should turn the form around. He is in a good space and can return to winning ways.
Top Bet For Today
Race 5: MAHARANEE (1)
Jockey: Kennedy W – Trainer: Peter P
MAHARANEE has been super-impressive in all three of her career victories to date. She quickened up well when winning the Grade 2 SA Fillies Nursery last time. The daughter of Flower Alley is bred to enjoy the rise to 1400m and she should keep her unbeaten record intact.
Race 6: MERCANTOUR (2)
Jockey: De Gouveia D – Trainer: Pettigrew S
MERCANTOUR fought hard for his last victory over 1200m at the Vaal. It must be noted that the horse that finished second that day has come out and finished second in a Grade 1 since. The son of Var looks to have ability and if seeing out the 1400m, he can notch up the hat-trick.
Value Bet For Today
Race 9: DARK TRAVEL (6)
Jockey: Habib C – Trainer: Webber B
DARK TRAVEL was given a peach of a ride when winning her last start over this distance on the Inside course. She produced a strong finish and got up where it
matters most. The daughter of Trippi is suited to this course and against similar company, she can notch up her fifth career victory
