Magic Tips Best Bets
TOP BET FOR TODAY
Race 1: JULEP(1)
Jockey: G Lerena - Trainer: A Laird
JULEP quickly returned to form with a strong finish for a close 4th over a mile recently and she will relish this extra furlong.
Race 2: MIGHTY HIGH(3)
Jockey: Lerena- Trainer: Janse van Vuuren
The high quality filly MIGHTY HIGH is best weighted in this assessment event on her peak showing and she can quickly return to winning ways following a good 2nd in a feature last time out.
Race 4: MANHATTAN COCKTAIL (9)
Jockey: G Lerena - Trainer: W Marwing
The grey gelding MANHATTAN COCKTAIL has shown glimpses of his true potential in recent starts and he drops in class today. AURORA AUSTRALIS also has an affinity for this c & d and he ran on smartly for 3rd in a stronger event behind his smart stablemate Royal Italian earlier this month. He usually runs on from way back so his wide draw isn't a major issue.
Race 6: PROTEA PARADISE(1)
Jockey: G LERENA - Trainer: M DE KOCK
The recently gelded PROTEA PARADISE didn't disgrace himself in a stronger feature last month and of course the runner-up of that event, his stablemate Atyaab subsequently triumphed in the Grade 1 Cape Derby. This son of Dynasty still has good room for improvement and he could a major say on his handicap debut in this non-black type affair.
VALUE BET
Race 8: POWERED BEAUTY(5)
Jockey: J Greyling - Trainer: W Marwing
POWERED BEAUTY plainly failed to stay the marathon journey in his poor last start but had much improv- ed form prior to that, including a smart comeback run behind Defy Gravity over this c & d three starts ago.
