Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 2: AL BORAK(6)
Jockey: M V.Rensburg - Trainer: M Azzie
AL BORAK is a 2yr old taking on older horses, but he has shown good form in his three starts to date, all of which were over six furlongs. He steps up to 1400M today and might be able to crack his maiden win at the fourth time of asking.
TOP BET FOR TODAY
Race 6: BOUTIQUE(3)
Jockey: G Lerena - Trainer: A Laird
BOUTIQUE returns from a 14 week rest, but she clearly has ability having won two of her three starts to date. She finished strongly to win her last start before the rest over slightly shorter and should relish the extra ground here.
Race 8: MYTHICAL BOLT(9)
Jockey: L Hewitson - Trainer: S Tarry
MYTHICAL BOLT has a set of blinkers fitted and has his second run after a rest, but he showed plenty of speed in his last start over six furlongs and should be right at home over this minimum trip. With Lyle Hewitson retaining the ride, he looks to be the one to side with today.
Race 9: SKIMINAC(2)
Jockey: T Juglall - Trainer: A Laird
SKIMINAC will have 4kgs taken off his back courtesy of this claiming apprentice. The pair finished a close up second to KURT'S APPROVAL in their last start, but are 1.5kgs better off at the weights today and the latter has the widest draw of them all.
VALUE BET
Race 7: NORLAND(3)
Jockey: M Yeni - Trainer: C Erasmus
NORLAND has shown consistent recent form and title chasing Muzi Yeni retains the ride today. He hasn't got the best of draws, but he set the pace in his last start and may adopt the same tactics and as a result, the draw may not be such an issue.
